Guitar update

[khaosworks]

So, went down to Guitar Center - the guitar tech took a look at Lilith and decided that it'd be best to send for another neck from Taylor and replace the whole neck instead of trying to glue it back together. Apparently, this happens a lot to Taylors - so the good news is that not only can it be dealt with, there appears to be no overt damage to the rest of the guitar so if we're lucky, Taylor will consider it a defect and not an accident and therefore still covered under warranty. Even if Taylor decides otherwise, a new neck will cost about $70-$80, which is way better than buying a new guitar. I left Lilith there with the tech guy after drawing up the repair order.

So I'm relieved. The bad news is of course we have no idea when the new part will be sent over, so they'll call me when it's done and I'll have to arrange for a weekend to get down to Atlanta once again to pick Lilith up.

Still, load off my mind.

Just let me know when the time comes--I'm about to start semi-monthly Atlanta runs!

Someday I'll have one...

The best guitar I ever played, the most beautiful and amazing, was a Taylor at Guitar center. It had koa sides and I picked it up and it begged for every note. Never before has something so easy and delectable graced my hands. It was almost as if all the impediments were gone, that rich sound and grace were not only in my grace, but placed on the table for me to take and give.

Good on you for the Taylor, let me know how it turns out!
