Zesty, Paul?

Somehow that makes me think of spaghetti sauce....

But yeah, I can't wait to get my full set of DCM Anniversary models--I've gotten my 330, and it's a beauty.

Roger,
In answer to your question about the prise of the 75th DCM 4003, I paid full retail, and was happy to do so for one of only 75 of the sweetest 4003's available anywhere in the world.

I paid a little less than full retail, probably the standard dealer discount, and I paid with a huge smile on my face. Can't wait to rock that bad Merlotglo chicken!

I was lucky enough to secure one on the initial order date at about 25% below suggested retail. When I went to pick the guitar up, the salesman told me that I was lucky indeed, as the store raised their prices by about $300 right after I'd ordered.

I'll be at NAMM too. This will be my 17th. I believe. I think I started going to them when I was 6 years old. Maybe younger.
No, I don't play the sax.

You young guys . . . I started going when I was 5 years old, 51 years ago. And now I'm sick of 'em.

I also started going to the Frankfurt Musik Messe (before it was called that) almost 40 years ago but fortunately broke that habit about 6 years ago. My poor feet couldn't stand an hour's wait on a frozen sidewalk waiting for a taxi each night anymore!

Nevermind the shows for the Fretted Instrument Guild, The International Music League, Guild of American Music, and the others that have now fortunately gone by the wayside.

Lets take your pulses about noon the third day...wear comfy shoes and turn on your BULLS**T DETECTORS. Warp 5, if you will!

And if your old one's just about had it, you can shop for one of the new 2007 BULLS**T DETECTORS, available now in a rainbow of designer finishes!

NAMM's got 'it all'...
I didn't get where I am today by being on time...

I was lucky enough to attend the show five years ago. I wish I could attend this year, but it's just not in the cards.
