I always suffer greatly from buyer's remorse. And I try to keep GAS in check by rigidly applying the "if you buy one, you gotta sell one" rule. Nor do I see buying a new bass as a cause for celebration. It's a tool, right?
Anyway, Frono was curious about who bought this bass and I confessed to him. And then he hounded and browbeat me into posting some photos once it arrived. So here they are.
On the plus side, it's that wonderfully easy to play Guild neck. And with new strings and a few subtle tweaks, it is set up beautifully... harp bridge style. Meaning the damn E string is an issue.
The negative for me, so far, is getting comfortable with the depth of the instrument. (It is the semi-hollowbody model.) But I figure if folks can handle an acoustic guitar, I'll learn to handle this baby.
