First was getting the wife to OK it. Man, that was a fight, She didn't understand the "new, but looks abused" part. I don't know what she has against authenticity.
Then the UPS guy just leaned the box up against the door on a hot summer day. You can't imagine how nervous I was that some damage may have occurred. I filmed the unboxing ceremony from two camera angles. I showed it to the guys that used to be my friends. They didn't say anything or respond to my repeated texts.
I've been playing this guitar like a madman the last two years. At least 5-10 minutes at a crack, sometimes as much as twice a week. It's just dripping with tone.
I did have a bad moment. My toddler knocked it off the guitar stand because she doesn't respect artistic implements. At first I had trouble remembering which finish gouge was authentic and which she f(#&*ing put on MY guitar. I'm going to send this thing into a skilled repair shop that restores vintage instruments to get the mar fixed.
I've been talking to some other guys on FB. We're going to get a band together. Some of them have amps, which they said that maybe I could use when we practice. We're all lead guitarists by nature and training, so we're going to have to see who's going to settle for holding down the rhythm section. I purposely only know two chords, just to make the argument that my lead chops are far better. They're the focus of my studio recording sessions, after all.
My wife's boyfriend said it'll only appreciate in value. He's badass and has two amps!
Wow, there's a guy who wants us to believe he has an original 62 Stat! And everyone knows you spent 3.5Gs to look like that guy.
