Not sure if I should post here or miscellaneous ?
Hi hope all my favorite guitar lovers are staying healthy and playing your guitars regularly.
I feel bad ,not sure any of you get like this but I sold my Eastman Fan fret . I hated to do it .
I can up with a few songs on her and just couldn't get a good recording and I could not keep up on the recording so over the months time just slipped by .
I wish I could keep them all but this is part of my journey so it will be ok .
So one in one out right ? Lol well you all know I bought a Breedlove which I'm in love with so keeper !!!!! .haha
Ok so story time ! Yaaaaaay !!!!!
I needed to consolidate my funds so off to the bank I went . My truck needs a new headliner and you wouldn't believe how hard it is to find someone to do it . I did its 250.00 more then last time but still not alot but enough to juggle my cash flow because that got low . During my enjoyable time at the bank ,no really it was good their good folks lots of laughs etc . Anyway my guy asks hey do want to refinance ? Um ..... What ? Err no not really I dont need a higher payment its just me remember ? You only do 15 yrs on my type home . Well then I say ok for the heck if it what you got ? The fingers go to work and next thing I know im going for a higher payment ,ugh ! though I refinanced 3 yrs ago I haven't pay off much in interest but this 25 yr one will do it alot faster and cut 13 yrs off the payoff so I might be a live then though not sure lol niw in between this my dumb a_ _ is still buying guitars in the mix of this. Lol
I mentioned a guy long time back who builds guitars in Malaysia . Lindsey Marcus guitars .
Of coarse I been wanting one you know me . Lol well thanks to covid I got a deal he offered me I couldn't say no to.
So heres this beautiful Grand Auditorium cut a way premium Alaskin sitka and gorgeous Ziricote back and sides ! OMG !!!!! Yes I want it ! and I bought it . All good right ? A awesome NGD post right ?
But nooooooooo I get a call 3 in the morning well text messages actually . Ray I have some bad news . Half awake I say whats up ?
Marcus tells me someone broke into his shop climbing in through a window over razor wire and knocked over a rack of guitars on a rack one of which was mine .
Damage beyond repair .
Another guitar was a custom from another Luthier and its value was up there. They caught the guy but it was to late for the guitars .
Marcus felt really bad offered me a refund because of covid and the fact his shop is in S Korea travel is out he said it take about a year to build a replacement with hiw things are .
So I go That Sucks !!!! What else ya got ?
He has a gorgeous GA in Stika Cocobolo with cut a way.
Also a OM in gorgeous Ziricote with cut a way .
And the one i got as replacement which is a GA no cut a way Ziricote .
These guitars are beautiful and still might available if any of you are interested.
Lastly he has a cocobolo dread cut a way that pretty as well .
Heres some pics from his shop of what i got coming .
Ok have to get ready for work ! Lol
