BluesKing777 Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) Local guy Geoff Achison playing some acoustic blues on his Cargill Custom Guitar. I have my sensational Cargill, my "Black Pearl", nothing like a handmade guitar! After listening to Geoff play, I might as well give it to him!

MissouriPicker Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 We’ve heard you play! Definitely do not give him your guitar.......lol......Seriously though, I understand what you’re saying. This guy is certainly a good picker (and so are you)....Several years ago I sat about four feet from Marty Stuart at a picnic table. Just watching him move effortlessly all over the guitar neck made me wonder what the hell I was doing when I played...... Just use guys like this as inspiration. Quote

I wasn't really going to give him my guitar - he already has one! He may not even want mine - it has my own custom features like a big wide neck and spacing similar to Martin Mod Vs....no, we played it for 2 practice sessions yesterday...acoustically at lunchtime and plugged after work when the weirdos next door play gangster rap really, really loud. So now I am thinking I need another Cargill ...in case something happens to this one! BluesKing777. Quote
Twang Gang Posted April 12, 2021 Posted April 12, 2021 He plays real good - and his hair is cool too! Quote
BluesKing777 Posted April 13, 2021 Author Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) Hair? I suppose real hair and a one off hand made custom spec guitar are both irreplaceable....can't get them off a rack!😵 I'm thinking an all mahogany including top in exactly the same shape and neck as my current Cargill for a spare Cargill...and gloss black 'cos I get bored with the mahogany brown look. Hmmm. Just needs money and a phone call...hmmm...... BluesKing777. Edited April 13, 2021 by BluesKing777 Quote
