The sound is important.

There was one occasion where GL played an ovation guitar:

I have a Harmony "S". I got it for Christmas 2006. There was a tag on it that said Dreadnought. I just loved the sound of it when I first heard it. When I checked out the sound of several other guitars in the store, I felt even more happy about the sound of mine. I don't know what kind of an Ovation I tried out, but it sure sounded nice. My guitar has to put up with me practicing. It will be nice to hear it sing someday. I'm very much a beginner and just learning to practice every day. I have small hands with long fingers, and I really don't know yet what guitar neck is supposed to be best for me. I really like the guitar that I have so my hands will just have to get used to it.

That Ovation I took a little strum on was black and had a strong look to it and made me think of heavy metal.

Hi Patti,

Glad to see you are here. Any chance you will make it to a concert this year?

Well, if Gord would take me (yeah, right). I would love to go to all of them, but no money and even if I could afford it, it sure sounds like a hard time for people to get good seats. Probably just not meant to be for me. It's alright.

Sorry Jesse Joe I wasn't trying to make you feel bad. The education about the carbon fiber guitars was good. Not everyone has heard of this type of guitar. It's okay you can stop crying now. I am not mad at you. LOL Some days I am so silly.

Let's get you to a concert.

Yahoooo, Joliet is definitely something I can do! It's a 500 mile drive, but I can also visit all of my friends and family while back "home" in the Chicago area.

Thanks DSR - and thanks for posting about that concert. I check the schedule frequently, but they snuck that one past me. Hopefully another one or two will be added in that general vicinity, so I can make the most of my road trip.

Hi Jesse,
no I'm not quite in Kentucky yet, just trying to get some work done in the office now and then (not very successfully at this point, too much going on on the Gord Board!)

And of course checking out if I'm able to go to any more concerts before October

Very good to know Kerstin, it's simply that I had not seen much of you here lately.

Hi jesse,

thanks for noticing

Hi Dore,

I guess now that I talked Kathy into the September concerts I really should try to make it myself. It's just going to take some negotiations.

Kerstin,

No problem and don't worry. Since you are part of the crew now maybe Gordon will write you a note. We are going as a family like we always do.

Well since we are on guitars again, I once owned a twelve string GOYA, cousin Podunklander.

Here is one of the most popular guitar in the world to me & Willie anyway...

Willie Nelson's guitar he named after Roy Rogers horse, {Trigger}...

Wonder if our Gord has signed it ?

Oh my goodness. I can't believe that huge hole in that guitar. I think if I ever had a night mare about my Taylor it would look just like that.

Trigger of course was a wonderful looking horse. How did you get from concerts to Trigger again?
