HamerDave Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 A while back I went on my town Facebook page and offered to give a guitar to someone in my community to, hopefully, share some of the wonderful opportunities and experiences I've had. I picked one of the stories and got to deliver on my offer today. And yeah, it feels good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCChris Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Can he return it in 6 months if the neck profile is not to his liking? Seriously, that's really outstanding. Well done sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that the neck profile will not be to his liking for several years, but someday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done sir! ... and what if it doesn't sustain for days, let alone tone to die for? Never mind if it doesn't play like buttah! Seriously, that's really sweet. I think the lot of us should raid the pawnshops in search of underpriced G&L Tributes, import Hamers, Samicks, and Corts, and seek out impecunious ambitious guitarists.
