Yep, that's the one Sheena. Good memory you've got there. It will be my main playing guitar now. My Dano will be used for my finger picking and for if I'm playing slightly heavier stuff.

But I am playing it a lot at the moment. A lot of the time, I'm just playing it un-plugged, just so I can appreciate the tonal qualities of a 12 stringer. It's just so rich!!!

You've probably experienced all this before so I apologise if it appears as though I'm rabbiting on, I'm just so pleased and proud that I own a quality guitar. And one that doesn't appear too often.

We don't mind at all Will. What you describe has happened to all of us I am sure. In fact just looking at my Rickenbackers even now, often takes my breath away. At least momentarily.

Congratulations, Will. A long time coming but it's worth it every second, yes??

Nice example of Fireglo, too.

To be honest, I wasn't too sure about the idea of owning a fireglo as it wasn't my first choice. But after spending a couple of days with it so far, I'm coming to appreciate it's own beauty and charm. I reckon it looks better out of the light though.

Thanks for the congrats guys btw. It's quite humbling. Long time coming, but so glad that my time has finally come.
