Default On this day, six years ago...

I enjoy the Facebook Memories that pop up in my feed. I didn't think it had been 6 years ago for this...



It was a gathering of carbon fiber enthusiasts at Kramster's place. I brought an Emerald X7, X20, and a RainSong Shorty. I think Earl and Alice brought a 12-string X20. Other folks added their CF guitars... and Kramster had one of every CF guitar ever made in the history of mankind (if I'm remembering correctly). It was quite a treat to play some "vintage" CF (I was interested in trying an X10 center soundhole, just to get a feel for the size), and options from different manufacturers. This was prior to the current generation of X7 and X10. The Blackbird Savoy and McPherson touring were there... guitars in every room, except the bathroom (TMI?)

It was a good time!

As I'm inclined to say: "Time flies when you don't know what you're doing."

What a GREAT group of fun people!!! I especially like some of the older center-hole emerald guitars from back in the day. Boy has the CF market changed since then. Glad we are not getting older ;-)

Thanks for sharing!!

Don't remember what I brought, other than obviously the 12-string Rainsong.

I don't think I played your 12-string that day... lots of stuff to look at and try out. It was quite an eye (and ear)-opening experience.
