love is the answer, at least for most of the questions in my heart. . .

I have no good reason to lust after electric guitars at the moment. I've got to address pickup issues in the semi-hollow, which if done the way I want, will cost as much as decent used guitar.
My two glaring "needs" are a serious amph, and a Rosewood Dread or a Jumbo.
Amph's...i can make plenty of noise, but they are both basically variations of practice amphs, and given that I seldom play out, they more than meet my home playing "needs" (as in, the neighbors, at this point, still speak to me)
Still even at home, I'd rather be playing through a 65 Deluxe reissue...*sigh*
the other is the acoustic, I've got a mahogany Larrivee, GREAT guitar, but it's really a fingerstylists guitar, a little quiet and mellow. For strumming and singalong and booming hammerons...the things that carry in an open mic, I feel it's a bit deficient.
Wouldn't you know, just got a line on a Bourgeois built Rosewood Dread... SERIOUS guitar...SERIOUS cash....but very limited run from 15 years ago...ony 150, hand built, hand voiced by Dana.....GAS of the sort that leaves me sleepless, and dreaming of guitars when I do drift....
so I guess the answer to the question is no.
