I thought it would be interesting to have thread for guitar talk. There seem to be a lot of guitars for sale on pfm just now (relatively speaking of course), but seeing them made me think we need to talk about them: whether how we can't strum and sing, need help to play this or that thing... or even how we just 'grab 'em by the g-string!'
I'll start. My Gibson Hummingbird is back with my local luthier to bring the action down some more because worringly, for the last month or so, whenever I've went to pick up an acoustic, I've mostly opted for my Taylor Big Baby as it's just so damn playable. Don't get me wrong, the action is already good on the Gibson, but just not as great as the perfectly setup Big Baby.
I told my luthier about it when I dropped off my Gibson and he said I should sell it. We'll see. If I still don't play her like she's my dream guitar - she is - then I might well see her after all.
I hope to have her back tomorrow or Monday at the latest. But I can't belive I've been choosing to play my fairly cheap Big Baby more often than not over my fairly expensive Hummingbird. It's a bizare world for sure!
