I got a flyer in the mail a week ago advertising a "Closed Door Sale for VIP list menmbers" at my local guitar store yesterday. I didn't figure they would be discounting guitars enough to convince me to buy one, but I thought it was worth going in to check it out. They had sold out of the Washburn D10S, which didn't break my heart, and the Seagull S6, a bit more concerning. Then I saw the pricetag on this:

I don't think that mentioning pricing is a no-no on here, but I'll wait for confirmation before I brag how cheap I got it.

I'm just thrilled with it. I played for an hour or better last night, then got up early this morning so I'd have a little quiet time before I left for work.

When my wife got home last night, I picked up the old all lam cheapie I'd been learning on and strummed a couple of chords, then hit the same chords on my new A&L. The sound was so much more pleasing to the ear that she got over being pissed about me spending the money.: : :
