    Default Finally did it - now having bad thoughts!!!

    hahaha, so after years of thinking about it I finally bought myself an acoustic - just a Washburn W10 black off Gumtreee for £50 becasue I did not know how I would like it.

    Well, like it I do and now I'm having lots of thoughts of selling up all my electric gear to buy a really nice acoustic!!!

    Just thought I'd share ;-)

    why not sell a bit of gear and buy a reasonable s/h acoustic..or trade a bit of stuff, bit less extreme, reckon you would miss you solid once it was gone.

    You won't need much wonga to get yourself a decent acoustic. There's shedloads of good makers around: Yamaha, Takamine, etc.

    Just returning to this ....... 6 months on the washburn was a great purchase at £50. It has made me play some much more than plugging the electric in.

    There are lot so things I like, the tone, the comfot in my hand, the playability etc...

    But it is massive, can't comfortably wrap my arm around it and play ove rthe sound hole ...... but that is probably a good job because it is a bit loud for me and a bit loud for playing when the kids are in bed.

    Currently thinking about a "better" acoustic from Santa, either that or an iPhone5 ..... which is best? ;-)
