swleary Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 Cool stuff, I have some cash coming and should be here in less than 30 days one thing I will be doing is getting my grand daughter a 3/4 size guitar since she is only 7 years old. I'm pretty impressed by the Epiphone's. Set up real nice, sounds good and plays real nice. I was actually surprised that it was such a nice guitar at a very good price :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duane v Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Great to see that your baby-girl is a player ....good job pops!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milod Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 The comment I liked best about the purchase: "Jasmine picked her." I think that's more likely to keep her pickin' than a real Gibbie Dove - although if you were prepared to buy it, that's cool too if she'd made that choice. The girl's smile kinda tells the story, and it's a good one. Congrats to you both. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swleary Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 She has listened very well to me over the years. I've always been one to say " the player never finds the guitar, the guitar finds the player". It paid off very well. I was not about to drop that kind of money on a Gibson just yet but could be a reality in the future if she keeps practicing and showing interest. She'll be a teenager very soon so we all know how that goes when it comes to sticking with something but I'm sure she'll still play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 ... Nothing against the "real thing" Dove, but I've ended up the past cupla years taking an entirely different view at Epis. That was an error for decades on my part, as far as I can tell. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
