I Am Poorer Again

[Mesh]

....and then Bill said 'give me just one more night'?

[Bob Oister]

Hey, Bill,

Congratulations, buddy, can't wait to see the pic of the new axe!  As Tom Petty said, "The Waiting is the Hardest Part"!?

Hang in there for the full 24 hours just to play it safe!?

Have a good one!

Bob

drool ...... lots of drool ...... followed by whimpering ... then sighing .. then whimpering

This happens to people. In Colorado, people would leave their beautiful instruments in the car at an open Mic and bring it in late... At midnight... Freezing... Pop open the case by the fire...

The horror. The HORROR !

XX  woke me this morning saying Sweetwater called  to say the sign was a misprint and what it should have said was WAIT 24 DAYS before opening 

once again she can’t quit laughing

I LOVE the non flamed/quilted top! I'm sure you will too. In 23 days, anyway.

You sure she was referring to the guitar when she said you'll have to wait 24 days? ?

Nancy approves of Nancy!

I would wait Bill. That was a great help they gave with that message.  And like Hidden is saying, it may have been exposed to tremendous changes if it went by air.

 

Just talk a walk around the block..... a few times!! : )

Dreamboat Annie was one of my first LP's that I brought with my paper route money. 
Those of you folks that reside in the Chicagoland area will know about Rolling Stone Music Store in Norridge, IL. Got most of my records from them.
Gee I am getting old

She's looking right at home with all those other beautiful guitars!

That's a real beauty, Bill, and I think you're richer for owning it.
When I was a teenager, I didn't know anything about guitars. We played what we had; Framuses, Teiscos, Tru-Tones. 
In 1972, we rotated Stateside and lived at my grandmother's house for a few months. My oldest brother had left a bunch of music magazines there from when he lived there. One was a Guitar Player magazine and on the back was a Gibson ad showing a white LP and a black LP facing opposite directions. I fell in love with the Les Paul from that photo. The shape, I think, is the most beautiful guitar form ever conceived.
It wasn't until '78 that I got to buy one, thanks to the layaway program at Professional Music in Raleigh. It was a black on blond 1955 reissue with P90s.
Alas, I had to trade it in for a bass rig in '80. I currently own an Epiphone LP, which plays and sounds great, But some day, some way,  I'm going to get a "real" Les Paul.

Congratulations, and happy playing!

Thanks so very much everyone for the kind words and encouragement! This guitar sounds better than I imagined it would! Absolutely beautiful tone and so completely different from the Fenders in an ACDC way. Wow I LOVE HER!
