Hi Everyone:

I have 3 beautiful guitars. One is electric - a '88 Gibson ES-335 (my avatar). My 335 has been signed by many of my "guitar/musician heroes" over the years. I don't want to part with this guitar, at least not yet.

The other two are acoustics. One is a '92 custom Lowden S-25 (made in Northern Ireland). The other is a '97 LTD edition Taylor GA-KC. Taylor made 100 of these LTD edition guitars - I have #33. These guitars, to me, are like beautiful, precious pieces of furniture.

At present, they're just sitting in their cases in the closet . They deserve to be played every day. The Lowden sounds very warm & mellow. The Taylor is very bright sounding. I really want them to be enjoyed & appreciated.

I have lots of reasons for wanting to sell my acoustics. I haven't played in awhile.....my wrists are fused & I can't play with the speed and dexterity I once did.....but, when I start thinking of putting them on ebay to sell, I start saying to myself, "I'm feeling the urge to play again....." .

With the money, I could pay off some of my bills and put the rest in savings.
I'm not ready to buy another bike just yet. Of course, if that time comes, the cash would be there.
It's interesting......I "say" I'm not ready to buy another bike yet....but, I'm ALWAYS checking out bike sites every day, (Bianchi, Surly, Trek, Specialized, Lemond, Terry, etc.., etc....)
AND, when someone here at TE purchases a new bike, I think to myself...."hmmm.. that would be really nice.... , perhaps one day..."

It wouldn't hurt to list my guitars on ebay and see what happens... right??

My wedding dress (1983-first marriage) was stored in my brother's basement. It was ruined when the basement flooded. (I spent waaaayyyyyy too much on that gown).

Have a great day everyone!

Peace & Love,
Denise
