<b>Brand New Guitar - GB D-5 BCE</b>

<div style="padding-left:5px;border-left:1px solid #DDDDDD;overflow:auto;height:100px;">Hey everybody, finally got a new guitar and it's a beeuut.

It's an acoustic-electric guitar made by Greg Bennett of Samick guitars. Sure it's not a mainstream brand but, it's still a really good instrument for what it's worth. I got it for around $300, then another $80 for a hard case, picks, extra strings, etc.

Here's some info about it. It's a solid top dreadnought cutaway. I originally wanted a jumbo, but i realized dreadnoughts provide more bass. It's an a-e so i can connect it to an amp. It's also go built in 4 band eq and a tuner.

The top is made of a shiny solid sitka spruce, the sides and back are also shiny and come in a tiger striped like wine red mahogany. The fretboard itself is made of rosewood, probably indian.

I can't belive with such quality woods that it was only sold for around 300 bucks. I was expecting more around 500+ dollars for this one. But hell i don't mind.

The image to the left isn't the exact same guitar, the only difference is the sides are a much darker redder color with stripes and the EQ/Tuner is slightly different.</div>

<b>Life and Chicks</b>

<div style="padding-left:5px;border-left:1px solid #DDDDDD;overflow:auto;height:100px;">I just told this reaaally hot chick that i liked her, but she's still making up her mind.

Can't really talk to her since she's gone to lake placid for the time being, but i can wait. If she says yes, this'll probably be my 3rd gf for the summer.

Hmm.. summer's almost over… back to school. Can't wait to see my schedule and meet all my friends again.

Maybe i'll get a job this year with gigs and stuff for cafe's or clubs. Idk, we'll see.</div>

Ebay. I got ripped of from there. I bought a tool a month ago but they still havent sent it to me. Also they never answer my e-mails or answer the phone.

WE're down 1 planet, but up four "dwarf planets", which include Pluto and XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS!

Ya, Pluto and I used to have some great times together… We would go fishing in his pond. *Sniff*

Ok, well congrats on the new girl. If she's really hot, tell her my address. She forgot her pants here.

Wouldn't know if she's hot then? Were you like, doing her blind folded?

Hell's ya. Mahogony, steel strings. Crazily clear tone.

Did I mention, my friend bought the exact same one for $275 and it was on a hardcore sale. Like 40% off.

Wow, any scratches or anything? Is the inside all good and fretboard all straight, or are the truss rods breaking the wood? And is mahogony the top, sides or fretboard? Also, what brand and model of guitar is it?

Just wondering, cuz most unexperienced guitar sellers don't realize if the guitar is taken well care of and well played, it should actualy appreciate in value.

Congrats on the new gf.

It's kinda sad that pluto is'nt a planet. He needs to come back in to the solar system. He forget his freaky glasses…

i pluto isn`t planet anymore, we (the people) don`t need to spend more time and money on investigating it. like if someone would decide to earth would stay the only planet as we know about it… no more space travels, more money. yay!
