Thundergod Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 That's it, I just got a call from a guy who had shown interest on my last Gibson and he said he's coming with cash. That's the last one I had, the melody maker... and I wasn't planning on selling her but he made a great offer. Anyway, after owning 4 of them, I no longer own a Gibson guitar, and I don't miss any of them. I am quite grateful to have been able to sell the "original robot" for a nice profit. Same goes for the others... got to play them for a couple of years, and then sold them for a profit which means I got paid to play with some pretty nice toys that are hard to come by down here. Right now I'm planning my next purchase... it will be another telecaster, I want to have at least 5 of them by the end of the year. As you were.

ShredAstaire Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 If buying guitars in order to sell them for a profit is the only reason you buy guitars, then I am sad for ya. Play the darn things and make music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californiaman Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Play what ever you want. Sell 'em when ever you want. Whether you make a profit or not is always up to you. Rock on my Ecuadorian Brother. Rock on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShredAstaire Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 No, i'm just saying play your guitars whether you are gonna sell them for a profit, for a loss, or not sell em at all. If you buy a guitar only to sell it for a profit, and not for playin...you got problems I can't solve. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigzag Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 TG, you need a semi-hollow with P-90s to round out your sound. Now it's like... hhmmmm... I played the Tele last Thursday, and the other Tele last Friday, and the other Tele last Saturday, and the other Tele last Sunday... I think I'll play the other Tele tonight just to mix things up a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeppelinguy Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 He sure does I don't understand the appeal for a semi-hollow tele, personally. Kinda defeats the point in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 TG, if you're happy then we're happy! The good news is that we now both have the same guitar in mind for our next purchase.
