That is still one sweet guitar.

The only acoustic on my wishlist is the discontinued Gretsch Rancher with Bigsby.




Wow !  :D

I love the cool yet elegant look of that ;  a real design classic.  The opulent neck inlays ,  sound hole shape ( well everything actually ) just seem to scream "Quality".  I imagine it is great for Old School , raw acoustic playing - and that wonderfully subtle neck pickup, to big it up. On that guitar, the Bigsby is ideal, and the red/gold scheme is especially delightful, as they are two colours that ( until you posted that photo )  I would never have though of liking.  even the pick guard and cutaway are perfect !   8)

I like this guy, he's not afraid of making $%&# ups and I think his enthusiasm is good. He's obviously doing a job he loves. I envy him in that respect. 

Yeh ...... I agree. Always enjoy his clips. Wish I could get my hands on some of the guitars he has played.

Say what you want, but I think philx is spot on.  Always enjoys himself, loves to answer questions on the comments section, loves playing songs & talking about them

I'd love to be that happy

Then there is Afghan Dave ( Our Hero ! ) - who keeps confusing Happ-i-ness with  hA - P*nis.  

God bless him and all in whom he sails ...  :)

Totally agree with that. And he plays some great music.
I think I hate being indecisive.
