About 24 years ago I had a 4 graft bypass. No Seagull though. Enjoy your new life and guitar.

There's something reassuringly honest about both heart surgery and a Seagull guitar. Enjoy both your new lease of life and your new guitar.

I hope your recovery from bypass surgery goes very well! Take care of yourself!

Your Seagull will be there as you heal.

Triple Bypass Heart Surgery, wow. The Seagull, as great as it is, seems so trivial. But, it's a wonderful guitar to help with the healing and it sounds like you're in great spirits.
