Don't be silly! At my age? A kid? It's a new (second hand) guitar of course and a model I've drooled over for some time. I put a silly low-ish bid in on eBay and bugger me, for once nobody outbid me at the last second.
Say hello to my new 5 string T-Bird bass, active pickups and all.
I Can't wait for her to arrive now. So that's a new electric six for Christmas, I bought a 12 string electro-acoustic last week and now the bass. I've had to purchase one of these to stand them all in as I already had an electric 6 string, an electro-acoustic 6 string and a 4 string bass....
Now, if I only had time to play the bloomin' things...

Re: A new addition to the family
Well done mate,i am very jealous ,but looks like it has gone to a good home,have fun.Maybe we all have one bit of luck in our short lives.Fifty years ago i saw a Gibson semi-acoustic bass,in, what we used to call, a junk shop window.The ticket said gilison bass £17 ,i borrowed the cash from my mother.Nice short fingerboard i used it for years swapped it for a VOX PA when i started singing.Lord knows where it is now,but i bet it's worth more than 17 guid .

Re: A new addition to the family
And this is the "one more" I wanted. In fact I wanted it so much I even bought it new and at FULL PRICE
I was looking at the bog standard 335 dot, but I saw this 335 pro for the same price and had to pounce. I'm now skint, but happy.

I will now shut up about guitars on what's supposedly a hi-fi forum.

Don't be daft , this is the "music" section. Your guitars are better suited here than the Eurovision in my opinionslinger wrote:

Re: A new addition to the family
Thanks for that Guy. Mind you, my mum's recipe for rice pudding is better suited to the music section than the Eurovision Song Contest is.

And with a bit of practice, you could do this.
