    I played a D15 earlier this week and fell in love with it. I think there's a good chance that I may have found my next guitar.
    I love the D15!  It’s definitely my next guitar.  
    Little known fact:  Cameron wrote In the Moonlight and Evacuation on a D-15.  Said that the guitar was just made for odd time signatures.  
    Very very cool!

    That was a lie.  Was thinking you’d have a different reaction based on your dislike for Cameron tunes.

    Ha ha.  You know I was going to comment on how much I hate those songs but I thought I’d be a better person. Lol.  Damn.

    Finally got around to doing this. There are a couple more guitars upstairs, but these are the ones that I play the most. I'll be looking for another acoustic (thinking D15) in the next few months as well. A couple of these are definitely knock around guitars & some are project guitars. And it also tells me that I need to clean up the studio a bit. LOL

    Classical was my Mom's when she was in college. Taking it in for some work soon. The Seagull is my wife's (she's left handed) and I wish I could play it! The Olympia acoustic is a great knockaround that needs some repairs & the same can be said for the Takemine acoustic/electric. Need to get the action lowered. The Tele is the one that I built with a kit I bought from The Fretwire (highly recommend them! It was a lot of fun and I think I may do another kit of theirs soon---the resonator!) The bass is a Squire J Bass that sounds fantastic & next to that is a decent little mandolin. The Strat is a '93 Mexican Strat that I absolutely love and then you have my favorite guitar, the Gretsch Electromatic.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Looks great Matt!

    Anybody have experience with buying from Guitar Center?  I see that they have four year financing.  Very very tempting....

    That Gretsch is sweet.  One day I'll finally get off my ass and get a kit to make my owner guitar.  That's awesome.

    I bought my Gretsch from them. No issues whatsoever.

    This is an older, alternative materials Martin that I have been working on. It had issues with the bridge and my attempts to fix it failed. (Probably best to avoid Martin models with HPL tops.)

    I added a few braces and installed the trapeze tailpiece yesterday. It's a little funky and different but it plays better than before by a lot!

    My wife made this for me a few years ago, still one of my favorite presents.  :)

    Excellent.  Always tough to follow the instructions and wait 24 hours to let the guitar acclimate to the room temperature.

    I also got a Gretsch (Streamliner) through them just recently. No issues

    Woah. That is awesome.  What state?  I may have to become a customer if there are any board member discounts.

    Very nice! An old bandmate of mine worked at one in Houston & got 20-25% off, I think.
