Congrats!  I find myself reaching for my mini more than I do my others.  It is such a fun little guitar to play.  I'm sure you'll give us some pics when it shows up, right? ;D

Congratulations on the new purchase.  In my mind I can hear the 'Mini' playing a song along the way; "I'll Be Home For Christmas"

Ok, whew.  I got it all open played a couple of songs and now it's all taped back up again, no one will be the wiser eh?

What a cool little guitar, I have been working on flatpicking "Silver Bells" and fingerstyle "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" so I played them both on both guitars and lots of strumming as well.  The Mini has such a nice big sound for such a small guitar I know I am going to be having lots of fun with it.

At first play - all of about 30 minutes I guess - I liked the strings on it and the action is set-up nicely.

I'll post some pics after "Santa" comes....  ;)

Glad you like it.  I really enjoy mine.  I switched to lights, but I think I'll go back to mediums after havings played it for a week or so with lights.  I'm ready for some pics!

open the box from the bottom, unpack the guitar, look it over, tune it, play it,
take pics of it to share with us & then repack it before anyone gets back ??? ;) :) :D ;D

oops, i guess you've already done that :)

congrats on the new 'Mini ;D
it's not about what you play,
it's all about why you play ...
