I got my RainSong out today. It hasn't been out of its case in almost a year. Joan and I both said the same thing when I opened the case: "Oh, I almost forgot how pretty this is!"

Considering a trade, so I need to take some current photos. The guitar was still in tune. I put on a fresh set of Elixir PB Nanowebs... yep, that sounds good... definitely a different tone from either of my Emeralds. I appreciate how they can sound different from each other, but still be a great sound.

A look at the Shorty...

A couple years ago, I lent the guitar to a friend of a friend where we played together. Of course, no good deed goes unpunished... the friend was a bit heavy-handed and left a couple marks on the top. Oh, nothing that jumps out at you, but I saw it. There is another thread here about a CF guitar that apparently has a warped top... these guitars are stable, but they aren't bullet-proof.

I am at the max in my guitar room, before getting the Shorty out. I think one of the wood ones will have to go back in the case.

Happy New Year!
