People and instruments keep coming! You can't turn around in there. I got to meet Mike G. He and Bob Young and I are kindred spirits, in our love of "old school"!! I know there are a few more on the forum. Bob Scott would be one.



Good times!

Dave, I am here in front of my computer!

Today I had a really great jam with some friends.

John Hall, wonderful donation!!! Image

(Mike Gutierrez, you did secure me the winning raffle ticket, right?)

Well it seems that John Biscuti found a new toy. He can't seem to put it down!

Here's another short clip of the guys playing around with the donated 12 string.
It seems Dale found one flaw in the guitar..... Image

I am living proof that hard work, determination and sacrifice will result in rich rewards to oneself in this life, because I won the Midnight Blue 620/12. Image

It actually had two winners, the first winner decided quite magnanimously to refuse it and put it back into raffle play; mine was the next name drawn.

The person who refused to accept it and turned it back in for the re-raffle?

Paul W.

My thanks to Gary and Joey and everyone else who had a hand in organizing the event and to RIC and the Halls who donated the guitar. It was a very memorable moment when I heard my name called, that's for sure. More than one person took some photos; I'm sure they'll post them in this thread soon.

Side note: I went to the RIC site to get a link to email to my GF so she could see what I won; the guitar that was posted on the front page when I loaded it?

A Midnight Blue 620/12.

Thanks.

Now I need to come up with a good nickname for it. "SnotGlo" and "BronzeGlo Abomination" are already taken.

Paul W declined the guitar, but ended up winning the memory book in another raffle. What goes around comes around.
