Johnt Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 had a real bad attack of GAS last week, still craving a Robert Johnson or similar. Checked bank balance and wife, neither seemed to be too upset by the prospect of a new arrival. So trucked off to play a couple which, after some searching I found! Got on with neither, that's 5 I have tried now and I haven't liked one! So gave up and on Saturday went to Tunbridge Wells shopping with my wife...... As far as I know there's only one guitar shop in TW, thats on the hill walking down. Well it ain't so bad walking DOWN but walking back up again I needed a rest so popped in! Walked out with A Recording King OOO size! Cheap as chips! Nice wide neck, reasonable sound from a solid top/lam bodied "budget" guitar. Very pleased with it, restrung it it sounds great (or as great as I can make a guitar sound!!) It's a strange feeling though when the hardcase has cost 1/3 of the guitars cost! OK It isn't going to last 50 years, but then neither am I ! I think I actually owe Theolonious Wilson a thanks for the "Recording King nod" So thanks TzadoK!

powerpopper Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Recession or no, "cheap as chips" and "very pleased with it" are always a winning combination. Enjoy your new addition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
