As I examined a nondescript middle aged man today I thought to ask if he happened to play guitar.
“Yes I do, but I need to work harder on it!”
So I give him a guitar pick and tell him that for the pick he owes me the story on how he got his guitar.
“Well there is really no story”
I urged him to tell me anyway.
“Years ago I decided I wanted to Learn to play and that I would get me a Martin D-28 and start. So I went to the music store and bought a HD-28V “
I picked my jaw up off the floor and said , “ hold on! Are you telling me you had never played, and you bought a 3K guitar to start with!”
He looked me straight in the eye and said, “yup”.
I tried to get some sort of a background story, but he held with this one. He decided to to play guitar and would start with a D-28.
He did grin and say that when they told him Martin gave a lifetime warranty, he thought to put it in his daughters name.
So that is the “non-story”. I think it is remarkable.
