About a week after I got my new 612ce, I decided to try out a new open mic I had never been to before. When I got there, I noticed one of my daughter's musician friends was there. She immediately came up and said she had just busted a string and wondered if she could borrow my guitar for her turn. Being someone I kinda knew, I told her she could. However, I didn't realize that this open mic had one of those vertical mic stands for their vocal mic (as opposed to the ones with the boom arm for the mic) where you have to get extremely close to the stand with your guitar in order to get your mouth up to the mic. The moment she went up there, I noticed this and was petrified she might wack my guitar on the mic stand! About a minute into her song, my worst nightmare was realized! She started slowly rotating left and right as she was singing and every time she did, the guitar body wacked the mic stand - "wack!wack!wack!" and she was completely oblivious to it happening! This was a most awkward situation - do I run up and interrupt her performance (how embarrassing would that be)? Or stay silent and hope for the best? I decided on a third option - I crept up and moved the mic stand about an inch further away from her. I'm sure it looked odd because no one else knew what the heck I was doing. Luckily, she just kept playing and didn't stop when I was up there. This outward movement of the mic stand gave *just* enough clearance to prevent further impacts. After the performance, I checked my guitar and miraculously, the finish was completely undamaged. Taylor has done a fantastic job on their finish to survive something like this. Anyone else have an experience like this when they lent their guitar to someone?
