Hi Old-Guy,
Which finish did you get it in?
I got it in the wine red finish, just like the picture on the site.
Did you order it direct? By the way, what style(s) of music do you play?
I did buy it direct. One of the cool things about the purchase was that the price dropped by $50 after I bought it. I was refunded the difference immediately without having to ask for it. Now, try and get that kind of service from one of the big manufacturers.
The styles of music that we're doing vary between classic rock, blues, country, and a little modern rock. Some the artists that we attempt to do are Gary Moore, Vince Gill, SRV, Young Bloods, Left Banke, Eagles, Todd Schneider, Staind, amongst others. We also have a number of originals that we put into the mix.
By "losing our drummer" I meant that our bass player and our drummer got into a dissagreement and unfortunately couldn't resolve it. The drummer took all of her gear and walked out just days before a gig, and that sort of broke the camel's back. We're not kids anymore either, and are getting too old for that kind of crap.
A while back, the father of our lead singer had passed away. That was a pretty tough time, as we all knew him for years and he was a standard fixture at an annual party over all of these years. Picture a party on a 5 acre ranch with members of multiple bands playing and generally running amuck and now seeing the next generation of musicians trying their stuff. I had touched on it before, although didn't get into detail.
I really did appreciate the support that I got from you and some of the guys from the forum.
