What? You put down the double neck?
That is a fine instrument. I notice that since the FB in relation to your body is so radically shifted with an SG compared to other guitars, I get lost if I have not played one in a while.

Ah, there you go! I must say, that guitar has it all. Very nice Robert.
Thanks, Session...its really turned out to be a fun, and very versatile guitar.

You need to use female names. Me saying Earl is great looking, just ain’t right.
It doesn't work that way.
There is no control over the gender of a guitar.
Each guitar reveals it's gender and name
if and when it chooses to do so.

Don O, you are a good looking man.

Picked up the Epiphone EB-0 again today. I haven't played it since I got the Les Paul gold top. I had nearly forgotten how fun bass can be.
Hey Gahr...you even have a turntable! How many records do you have in your collection. I have about 500 myself. Nothing beats vinyl records and even Eddie Van Halen swears by vinyl. BTW...nice looking bass guitar.

Oh, yes, I love vinyl. I haven't counted my records in years, but I'm guessing somewhere around 1000 LPs at the moment. When I was a student there were a couple of nice second hand record stores in town. I used to go there a t least a couple of times a week to check out the goods.
Of course, I have a CD player as well, but it just never feels the same as a nice LP. I'm definitely not a hi-fi freak or anything, my stereo is rather cheap compared to what a lot of people have, so it's not really the sound of vinyl that is important to me. But the feeling of holding that big record, looking at the big covers (especially nice gatefold sleeves!) is something special.
When all my friends bought CD players in the 1980s, I stuck to vinyl. I didn't buy my first CD player until 1992, and I did it only because all the record stores in my home town had stopped selling LPs at that point. When I moved to Bergen in 1993 there were several stores selling vinyl, so I continued buying LPs. These days vinyl has come back big time. I don't buy a lot of music anymore (although I buy things on iTunes for my phone every now and then), but when I do, I always look for LPs. I think there is a new second hand store in town as well (all the old ones closed down a few years ago), and I think I'll have to check it out soon.

At the time, I was using the expression "Enjoy every sandwich" to mean that every moment should be enjoyed, not just the weekends, or the evenings, etc. Of course, I turned this into a way to rationalize another guitar and I wanted to name it "sandwich". My wife was not impressed, so I went with Earl, as in the Earl of Sandwich, where the meal got its name (which you can now hear every 10 minutes if you listen to Spotify with commercials)
