Thread Name: This ol' Guitar: instrument or friend?
Subject: RE: This ol' Guitar: instrument or friend?
Because I played cheap n nasty guitars for years, I've only JUST found the guitar of my dreams. It's more than just a piece of wood - it's THE guitar, and I'm sure I'll treasure it for years to come.

I have a clarinet which I play very rarely now, but I've had it since I was 18, and wouldn't dream of parting with it. It's got lots of MY history in it. It's a lovely deep brown colour, but when the light falls on the wood a cetain way, there are deep shades of red in it. Sadly, because I play it so rarely, when I DO pick it up , I just get frustrated at how badly I'm playing.
