I have a beautiful Martin.....it was given to me by my brother and I just love it. But there's no way I would ever part with my old clunker Yamaha, a gift from a dear friend.....It's been with me for too long and we have too much shared history to ever give it up. You know the old saying, "If these walls could talk....." How 'bout "If this guitar could talk....." Sounds like a song challenge if ever there was one.

This thread reminds me of "The Red Violin." Anyone familiar with it?

Jenny, it's not like me to give advice on what to do with instruments....But, until YOU know for sure what to do, try finding something else to get rid of...maybe something you can toss in the fireplace or campfire........and keep that ol' Gibson. All the best..... KT
