I have an itch, but I ain't got nothing to scratch...

So, I'm settling into my new job @ Hillside. Things are going pretty good from my perspective. I am learning new stuff & attempting to take a load off the boss man. The week flies by and I enjoy what I'm doing. There is only one thing that is lacking. A new guitar. I have an itch for a new acoustic guitar...preferrably a dreadnought...Larrivee, Taylor, Lowden, Avalon... One problem is that guitars are expensive, actually, nice guitars are expensive. Another problem is that the wife & I are saving money for the upcoming Germany trip that will run us $4000. Not much room for guitar budget. This doesn't stop me from my daily stroll through ebay to look at all of my possible future stringed friends. I guess I could sell a current guitar that I have to pay for a new one, but that would be counter productive and sin. I think the desire for a new guitar is just one of those things that never really goes away. It could be worse. Much, much worse.
