Y'wouldn't happen to have that other forum's name handy, would you? (Asking for a friend.....)You know, I once knew a girl who said the same thing, and then - oh, wait! Wrong forum!

right? they are so light West. and the scalloped bracing just did not work for me in the end, the sounds was too profound if that makes any sense.
Does anyone ever just get a few nice guitars, keep them forever, and be contented? I'm going to ask on all the forums to see if I can find a couple.
Quite a few, but they are not big on forums.

I'm with you there!Me, I love bling, and I love fine guitars even more.
Wow! That is one uber-fine guitar, and massively above my pay grade!I'm seriously considering trade of two of my Collings guitars for this beauty.
Been there, done that.....selling multiple inexpensive ones for upgrades to one or two quality ones.....
Santa Cruz is happy to do a reset for you too, they are serious about the guitars they build and sell, even if you are not the original owner.Well, I'll be damned, I followed my long held belief that the less you know about a guitar the better you'll be able to decide about it. Until this thread, I had no idea my SCGC D P/W had no adjustable truss rod. Ha! But here in coastal California that's not important. My old M 36 did not have one. I really had no Idea what the Santa Cruz was, I just played it. I'm learning a lot after the fact. Profound is a good word to describe it.
Y'know what, I haven't either! And never bought one with any other intention than keeping it.I've never sold a guitar. I traded an Ovation Legend and some money for my Yairi DY-87. I tend to hold onto instruments.
I got a great deal on my New Hartford-built F50R. I don't recall if I was even aware that it was going to come with emeralds inlaid on the tuning posts!I'm kind of halfway where you are when it comes to bling. I have never cared for abalone binding, as I think it's too busy-looking.
But I really like bound pegheads and necks, lots of microbinding around the body, and big slabs o' pearl on the board- the art deco stuff.
