go with the sharks. sounds like drumming is your true draw, and you already have a great guitar. plus you could always find a les paul used, but try and find a used shark trip :P

basically, since you have a guitar, you can always experience playing the guitar.
without a shark, you can't experience it... ever.

Okay, first, give me your address, PM me or something.
I'll steal the guitar so your wife won't hate you for telling her to take it back, this will also prevent you from having to go without a good sexing for several months...
Then, you can act so hurt and sad that the guitar is gone (maybe others too, you mentioned a fernandes?) that she will gladly let you swim with the delicious tasting sharks just to cheer you up on your birthday. I know it sounds like a lot to go through, but I'm willing to do this for YOU. If you've been married for six years, then you have surely known the wrath and sexlessness of an angry woman, and of course you'll jump at this opportunity to have your cake and eat it too.
So, that is my proposal, I suggest you PM me quickly.
Thank you.

Not bad, not bad at all........for a guy living in a city that was named by mispronouncing "Tequila"..... not bad at all!
 
At least...

You didn't make some crack about indians/cowboys and teepees...
Or ask if we had running water here yet.
 
Your wife bought you a guitar, Phil! This is a no-brainer. You keep the guitar, you name it after her, you write her a love song, and then you start making plans to swim with the man-eaters to celebrate a future birthday. You also start making plans to do something really nice for her on her next birthday.

Another relationship saved. No charge.
 
Sharks.

You can always find some way to splurg a little on a Epi. Just do what I do and save all your change at the end of the day in a jar. Then after a year or so you might have enough. You'd be supprised how quick that change adds up.

And its a lot easier to up and out go buy a guitar than to drop everything and leave town, state, or even country to go swim with sharks.

Have you actually played some of the new Epiphones?
That is a big yes. I can tell a difference between the Epiph LP and the real deal. I'm not everybody though. It's a totally different guitar. I own a Gary Moore Sig LP. Paid 1800.00 new for it. It is solid as a rock. I will never part with it. That is until death. Could I say the same for the E LP? I wouldn't condsider owning one.
 
Watch out for the Jellyfish!!!

That fernandes is kinds like a paul no.

I don't remember suggesting that an Epi and a Gibson LP are identical, but to say that the Epi's are "crap" is a bit of a stretch, IMO.

And I don't own an Epi but the ones I've played have been far from crap.

I am turning 40 on May 5th. I have always been a drummer, but i play guitar quite well! And bass, and ...others!! On the first birthday I had after my wife and I wed about 6 years ago, she suprized with a Fernandez Revolver. I loved that guitar!! Still love it! Sits right next to my American Ivory Strat.

Now I hinted to her what I wanted for my birthday was a Les Paul. (told her it didn't need to be an actual Gibson as I never play guitar on stage.) Then I told her the other wish, that I have had since I was 10, is to go in the water with Great White Sharks!!!!

Well, I called today to book the boat for the shark dive and she confides that she's already bought the guitar! It's solid black with pearl inlays and ALL gold hardware! Remember, it's an Epiphone. The price of the guitar is the same for the shark dive.

Do I take the guitar and miss the shark dive, or do the shark dive and lose out on the Les Paul????

Which would you big balled guitarist choose? An adventure that would be remembered for a lifetime, or a treasure you can use for a lifetime??

(I skydived and that was an experience I wouldn't trade for anything, so bear that in mind.)

Why can't you have both......be selfish for once!!.. :D :)
 
Other than that your wife has bought the guitar, I can think of no anti-shark arguments, but then, I am a shark addict.
 
take the guitar, then just run blindfolded in traffic at high noon to appease your sick excitement addiction.
