Is this a guitar you use sometimes and will miss, or is it just a dust collector?

It's one I use, though not as much as the mandolin. Guitar was my main instrument until I picked up a mandolin a few years ago. It's the nicest instrument I've ever had and probably ever will have...I've never played another guitar that felt and sounded as right for me as it does. It's also the first instrument I ever performed with. However, at this point I'm mostly just getting it out once in awhile to see if I still remember how to play those songs, and though it's a magnificent thing, it's true that it isn't getting used on a daily basis.

I think I'm going to give this a week...but it's not like I have much else of value! Most of my stuff is of the handed down three or four times variety. ;-) I wouldn't have it any other way, but I DO love and appreciate nice instruments, even ones I can't play all that well.

Rosie.... It sounds to me like something you should hang on to if there is any other way to solve the temporary need for money. You might miss it, or, you might sell it a few years from now because you have drifted further from it.

It is sortof like my saddle. I just sold my Stubben english saddle that I have had forever. I had to get a new saddle last year, not because the saddle was worn out, but because it didn't fit Bay properly and was soring him. I only could get a couple hundred for it, was never worth it to sell until I needed room on the saddle rack for ecurbh's new one!!
