OldCowboy Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 In my early years, my teen years, early 1950's, The only guitar to have was the one that Les Paul, Merle Travis, and my life long hero, Scotty Moore played, GIBSONS. At the time, why would anyone play an acoustic guitar other than a Gibson. Well as time went on, I discovered Martin Guitars. They all have there place. As of today, I have nine Gibsons and six Martins, give and take one or two on either side. Depending upon my mood, will be the one I play. I gotta'say, I enjoy them all, and am not looking for another or one that may sound better. I outgrew this thought a few years ago. Age also helps in decisions, along with $$. Thanks for reading. In my case, age is not a limiting factor. $, on the other hand๐ฉ๐ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morkolo Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 ย There you go, a belated ngd right on the bottom left. 2013 Gibson J35 I bought off my Father, he wasn't a fan of it's tone and sold it to buy a Taylor . Turns out the saddle was poorly cut and turned up on the bass side taking all the bottom out of the guitar. One new saddle later and I'm too busy playing it to post about it.

kelly campbell Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I do not post when I buy other brands just because it is a Gibson forum, However it does not bother me that others do.

I respect your lifestyle, I traded in my first issue Big Baby for PRS Doublecut P90, that went on to become a TV Yellow Melody Maker single dog ear P90. What a tumble that is.

MorrisrownSal Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Kelly, congrats on the Bird! I'm open minded and non-monogamous with guitars, although I tend to stay with Gibson and Martin. I believe in everyone having equal rights with guitars. Granting more attention and love to one brand doesn't lessen it for another... it's not pie. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsh? Abrupt? Sorry? All will be forgiven, though absolution is pending. Pending WHAT, the gentleman inquires. Each participant in this thread requires receipt of one vintage Gibson acoustic (model and year specified by each member) delivered to our place(s) of residence as a donation toward all the good works of our order no later than the final day of March 2017. My request is for one 1947 J-45, but will accept a 1947 Southern Jumbo. Seriously.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
