Long story short; there was a bit of a mis-selling banking insurance scandal going on here in England some years ago involving something called 'payment protection insurance' or PPI for short.
Anyhow, for months on end people were bombarded with calls from companies offering to claim back the money we were owed and I, eventually, succumbed thinking, what the heck. I had no idea if or when I might have been taken advantage of but got the forms, filled them in etc.
Checked my account today and, lo and behold, a nice person had deposited enough green for a new guitar.
I went down to my local store, checked out a D-18 Standard, put down a deposit, sold my spleen, a close relative and traded a few other guitars, and tomorrow, after a setup, it'll be coming home.
What a nice way to greet May...
Thanks for reading.
