Chose my Guild acoutic, because that was what Paul Simon was using at the time, and I loved his tone.
Chose my Alvarez electric when I traded my Teac 3440 at the local music store, smartest trade I've ever made, just love this guitar!!
Found my Ric bass under guns and ammo in the classified, got it and a practice amp for $300.00, laughed all the way home!!
