Looks like Earl was a dud for New England. (Thankfully! :) )

 

Last full day of fun-in-the-sun. :(

 

Better make the most of it. :dozey:

 

Took a couple of long rides up and down the coastal RT. A1A the last couple of days. Up to Jupiter and down to Fort Lauderdale. A lot of nice scenery. That's where all the money is down here.

Back in Bahstun. Blah.

 

Time to face the music (literally...) once again.

 

At least I have tomorrow to prepare my psyche for the onslaught of work.

 

EDIT:

 

1965 was a very good year... :)

'65 Gibson ES-335 in practically MINT condition. (The original tags are still in the case, almost no dings, scratches, or wear.)

 

Bringing the grand total of "guitars I have that I know are older than me" up to: 3.

Thanks! :)

 

It plays and sounds great, too!

 

There's really a magic to vintage instruments that can't simply be explained away to the fact that you know you are playing a guitar that's old. They really did make them different back then, and the years have a way of mellowing them out in a fantastic fashion.

 

It also brings my personal count of Gibson 335s to 2. Just like the amount of Les Pauls I have. :D

 

Oh... and:

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ZARG!!!

 

:joy:
