So a couple days ago I was frequenting my home away from home known as my local guitar shop. I've been eyeing the GS mini for a while. Following a promotion at work and the wife's endorsement, I pulled the trigger. Of all the things I like the most of this, the mobility tops the list. I finally got my couch lap guitar. I'm confident just having this at arms reach anywhere I am will improve my playing.
SO....then today, I take my daughter to her guitar lesson at the same shop. If you recall, I got her a Squier strat and amp for Christmas. While she was back learning, I was browsing the inventory and playing stuff, and talking to the guys. The owners are brothers and really good dudes that always treat me right. Knowing was already a 214 owner, one of guys mentions they took a trade-in of a 2007 214E-G from a fella that wanted a T5. So, I took a play to it. For being 5 years old, this thing is in pristine mint condition. The frets have never seen playing. Absolutely NOTHING wrong with it. The pick guard still has the Elixir sticker on it. The hard shell Taylor case is in just as superb condition. Make a long story short, I now have another 214.
The only thing my wife says is "Well I guess you needed another one, huh?" Yes...yes I did.
