Kat, I only bid on the guitar I was interested in having, and it was probably much too good for the purpose I intended. I don't know enough about these things, and besides, I want to get my own computer at home. I was just astounded that another Gibson went for $175 -- in good condition.

John P., are you the John I met next door at Dusty Strings? Sorry we couldn't chat longer, but y'all were swamped, and they were closing. MAG (Mary Ann)
