MissouriPicker Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 The AGF, I suspect, has a large number of young (maybe young teens) members who ask these interesting questions. Fortunately, there are also some wise and mature folks who frequent the place. I admit that The AGF has some interesting topics/discussions. It was there that I first met the folks who had been buying Gibsons for 30 years and never found a good one, the folks who claimed their Taylors were actually exploding because of thin tops, and countless folks with questions about "tell me what kind of guitar I should buy-is best for folk music-sounds most like a J45-has the Martin sound but cost less than $300-will work best with a Tone Rite." The AGF is good for the proverbial "laugh" every-now-and-then, but that's because they don't have all the wisdom and maturity that exists in this forum where we deal only with the serious topics......And for those who are interested, my guitars and other musical instruments cover a broad spectrum of the animal kingdom. All the way from T-Rex to the tiny Hummingbird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Its no different than asking what sort of whisky would your Gibson be .... nothing new and not sure what the big deal is there Wiley ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Well, it nothing more than further out the J-45 is a workhorse trail. And why not if it amuses people. I can't join in though. My guitars aren't sensed as animals, , , not even women, , , really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewilyfool Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 I remember one that asked…"What motorcycle best represents the guitar brand?" type of question…lol….that one was funny……I think Gibson got the most "Harley Davidson" answers, Martin was compared to "Honda"….etc. it was actually funny!! Let's see Whisky???? Gibson would be Jack Daniels…..Lowden would be Jamesons……Martin would be''Old Grand Dad"….lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capmaster Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Well, sometimes I happen to call guitars or basses special or different animals, but they aren't. They don't breathe, eat, drink or sleep, don't have gender or sex life, and even the sh!t coming out of them finally is just - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 So, by my figuring (if we're using "drinks" as the criteria), Taylors would be a Roy Rogers or a Shirley Temple. Or maybe 1% Skim Milk. Capmaster---that was funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissouriPicker Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 blindboy, a Shirley Temple is a kid's non-alcoholic drink....usually 7up or some other lemon-lime type drink, some sweet syrup (I think it's grenadine), and a maraschino cherry. You'll often see them served at weddings... I first heard of "a" Shirley Bassey when I was in Vietnam and I'm pretty sure it came from the Australian troops we worked with there and I figured it out right away. Some things were educational and funny at the same time....Those aussies were tough soldiers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorrisrownSal Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Well... I don't have the music in me lately. Every time I pick up a guitar I feel like I am just hitting the same chords and patterns. The guitars are making the same sounds over and over again. They are mockingbirds. And they are mocking me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
