I bought a new guitar the other day.  Couldn’t quite afford it yet, with all the wedding expenses the second half of the year has brought, but I was growing restless.   I sold my previous acoustic/electric to help cash flow with one of my daughter’s wedding in August, and then have been paying for my own.  Anyway, I couldn’t stand it any longer.

I had narrowed down my selection to a Seagull model in the most recent Music123 catalog.  But then, on-line, I started to see them disappear.  That is was pushed me over the edge…I had this fear that in a couple of weeks I’d be waiting for backorder.  So, off to Guitar Center I went.

I got a great deal from the guy who bought my Breedlove back from me.  They didn’t have the Seagull model I was looking for (S-series S6 + CW Cedar GII)  but instead I found a Performer series mini-jumbo.  It has a lot of mahogany, a mini-jumbo design and a really great feel and sweet sound.  The guy at the store said it has a spruce top.  So does the technical specs page, but the main product page says cedar.  So, although I am confused, I don’t really care because I love the guitar.

If you’re looking for a great guitar at a super-reasonable price, look no further than the Seagull line.  I am thrilled with playability and tone.  Here’s a link to their site:

All for now….

Peace!

The home page of this site contains my all time favorite picture of me. It is with Jennifer at Jordan’s wedding and I think it was taken by Ashley or Hannah.

I retouched my tie using GIMP, because I had used a single Windsor knot (I forgot how to get a nice double Windsor and was in a hurry!), removed the glare from my glasses and I think that was all. But even though I like the way I look in the picture, that is not why I like it so much.

I like it because of the way Jennifer looks…the picture captures the way I see her. And that’s really what I like about the picture…it is the first picture that really reflects the Jennifer I see. So, when I look at the picture, I see us as I see us, and I like the way we look.

It is because we really love each other. At some point I began praying for a worthy companion. I know He answered my prayer with Jennifer. And I thank Him for her.

She is now my wife. And I praise the Lord for that fact.

That is what I see when I look at my home page.

That is what prompted me to write this post.

That is what I’ve got to say!

More later…

Peace!
