...and feel a bit  I have two electrics and wasn't really playing them, so stuck both up for sale, the thinking being I'd keep the one that didn't sell. I put a high-ish price on both so that only serious parties would get in touch - at first, I had non-stop calls about the Jaguar, and thought I had clinched a sale last week, but the 'buyer' disappeared, only to reappear yesterday with some new 'trade' offers  Then today, a new buyer contacted me about the Telecaster, asked a few questions, then came around this evening, played it, loved it and bought it. I thought I'd be hanging on to the Tele, but it seems I'm a Jag man now  Ah well, it's gone to a really top bloke, who plays in a wedding band, so at long last it'll get the thrashing it deserves  Still, I think 'seller's remorse' may be setting in..... |

Hang on Martin, you put a high-ish price on it but now you're miserable? if you look on something called "the internet", you'll find many fine acoustic guitars for sale, any number of which could put a smile back on your face... You're welcome. |

The buyer texted me last night to say thanks again, and the guitar is amazing and in tip-top condition. Now I think I undersold it! Ah well, at least I now have some funds to waste spend on Christmas tat gifts for the brats kids 'Tis the season to be jolly  |

There is a lot of GAS promotion and encouragement on this forum Martin by very naughty persons. I will not name them but they know who they are  Phil |
