Talk me out of buying it...please!

My wife would kill me, but I played one last week and have had it on my mind ever since. :( 12 months same as cash too!

UPDATE I plopped down the cash. Well...the Musicians Friend card (12 months no interest- why shove out the $$$ all at once? :) )

Get the guitar and a 300C. When she complains, return the 300C. The guitar will seem insignificant by comparison. :)

Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and ill-tempered wife.

Don't buy the guitar without consulting her first.

Didn't she just give you a guitar for an anniversary gift?

Yeah, but that was a Les Paul. This is a totally different sound....and it has an acoustic pickup! I wouldn't have to switch guitars and amps anymore! How cool is that?

If you have the money? Why not? My friend has a couple guitars that are worth more than $1k. He buys a lot of expensive guitar stuff, but he's really good. If you are serious about playing guitar then by all means, go for it.

Meh, I don't really care for the Tele's. I'd like a good Strat, though. Gonna build one in a while.. :)

Indeed, it would be very cool. BUT... is it cooler than getting laid on a regular basis? I don't know your wife but I think most spouses/SO's may get pissed.

*shrug*

Best of luck, mang.

Heheheh....wife and laid on a regular basis doesn't really fit in the same sentance :D (We have the kid thing going on).

I'm thinking I could buy it, hang it on the wall in my studio, and she would slowly get used to it being there. Then, one day when I start playing it, she would go "Where did that come from?" and I would reply "It's been on the wall in my studio for a long time!"

They suddenly had one blemished burst model for $599. Jumped on it after that :)
