(Or not.)

It's in the style of Madison Avenue ads of the same era. Witty, pithy, stylish. You might not remember them, but it looks like an intentional riff on VW's magazine ads. Which, in advertising, is fair practice.

'Zackly!

Heh heh. Better than getting bought by CBS, anyway!

Thanks, Chaz. I read the thread when it was new but haven't looked at it since. I'll take a look and see what the street is saying.

Hey — It's been a little while since Yamaha took over, and I haven't heard about how it's going there. But at Acoustic Guitar Forum someone just posted: "Yamaha takes a lot of pride in the whole of their guitar line, from the least to the most expensive. This has been my experience...

It sounds like Guilded was blocked from the whole site. Happened to me once. And I was being civil, just trying to have a reasonable conversation about a topic that must've been more hot-button that I realized. All I can imagine was that the person I was arguing with was a moderator who just...

That's true. I wasn't thinking long-term. I'll go back to sleep now . . . .

I'm lazy. In most forums, I just hit edit, highlight everything, and type in a row of X's. I do, however see the word Delete right next to the word Edit. Am I on to something?

Yup. When I was in high school, lots of my friends played. A friend asked me if I wanted him to show him how. I figured, everyone else does, so I should learn in self-defense. Plus, I'd just seen B.B. King on one of those afternoon TV variety shows that used to be popular (Merv? Mike Douglas...

My other passion is the fridge. Go to the source!

For some. The skinniness is why I like them. For me, they're the most comfortable pens ever invented. Hate grappling with a fat pen. And the clip never weakens! Don't you hate that? But you'll be glad to know they also have several with thick shafts — ball points, gels, fountain pens...

You're lucky. I always break the points. Grr.

Yup. Ti-2s are the pencil's Platonic ideal.

Nice! I'm saving up for when Cross Pens comes out with their Jerry tribute ballpoint.

That makes sense. Thank you and Chazmo for the fast git-back. Yup, as I said, I'll get my donation off to the museum fund soon. My wife had a comment I liked. The museum was probably wonderful, but letting people look at a lot of memorabilia isn't nearly as valuable as creating a program that...

I'll give to the =AT192sVQtGkxce5exi7ioyxJ9X5Dc2RBjGQ74hcEw72QoQZjXUhI7CuVAqu-BTyh313r1Z3WV2cjzb4PlE3drg-njYP4hI7krV6skI_Lj2YC_CdsFqBZ48jBBErzwSDX5rCalPUPswZnlN5VA-v535dezPpYigwDEZ3D5fk9bJIBmf2rUallUPagPB4po0of3q_KAwM3JKU57n8SE6U']https://gofund.me/59fdd7ec effort, but first I'm wondering...

But don't throw out the old one. If you ever sell it, the buyer will like having it.

Yup! OR: If it's a local sale, have a friend who knows guitars check it out for you.

Welcome, Longfellow! If you're asking about the D-25 folk guitar, yes, that's a good price. Even if it needs a bunch of work, it's worth it — though you might haggle a bit if it needs a neck reset, naturally. But even with a reset, I'd probably do it because I'd end up with a terrific little...
