    How'd you get your hands on a 58!
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    same way i got my hands on a nightbird-
    theres a local music store,DAve Phillips, and i am like the only kid that goes there, and i go there about 3 times a week, and all the staff know me, and theres this one guy who is friends with my mom's co-worker, and he has about 30 guitars. and one day he invited me over to play them. i loved the 58. than today, the mananger of the store brought in his nightbird for me to try, and i actually liked it better. the neck was awsome, the pickups were great.

    amazing how they trust all that with a 14 yr old too:)

    Damn, I'm 15, and wish I had that chance!

    Wow, I feel old as dirt at 19. And both of you are probably better guitarists than me, too.
    If idle hands are the devil's workshop, he must not be very productive.

    I didn't start playing until I was 26, which was last year. Better late than never.

    damnit heres me hitting the big 30 next month everytime i go into the local larger music stores i get looked at as if im gonna steal everything.
    I'm not saying stupidity should be a capital offence, but what say we take the safety labels off everything and let nature run it's course?

    i played a couple of the mid '90's bluesbird/blues 90s. my fave guitars i've ver picked up too. whenever i get around to saving a bunch, i plan on ebaying one. sucks they don't make 'em anymore, tho i'm sure the demand really isn't there.
    For my money, they are right in the best-bang-for-buck/quality range, with Hamers. used for $1k, better build and tone then many a Gibson.
