I’ve done that with shotguns, so I know it’s a tried and true plan. She likes jewelry....maybe an Emerald????

Fortunately for me, my wife is into quilting. Have you seen the price of a good sewing machine lately?

Believe me, I'm well in credit here

I've heard of shotgun weddings, but have never heard of shotgun guitars. Are those a southern thing?

Never used a shotgun to get a guitar, but I did come home with a new Browning and told my wife I bought it for her. I immediately asked to borrow it. I could do the same with an Emerald!

I have the same Rainsong and love it! I suggest you try Martin Retros on it. Warms it up nicely. Enjoy!
