The Bubinga guitar was amazing! It was incredibly balanced, loud and beautiful. I’ll be amazed if it doesn’t sell.

I was close to buying it on Friday. I made the mistake of asking for permission instead of forgiveness.

It was a beauty for sure.

One of the nicest around. I’m still thinking about it, as were a few other folks. I haven’t checked, but it may already be sold.

I think I heard more mumbling about Joel's bubinga guitar in terms of how good it was and I am thinking of buying it. I would not be surprised if someone still doesn't jump on that!

Hey, Jeff, all you gotta do is give your wife something she's wanted for a long time too; then she'll return the favor by giving you permission. It's a win/win!

That technique doesn’t work with my wife. She is frugal, I’m the spender. I need to look at something much more expensive like a new car and then she is glad that I settle on a new guitar, but it takes time and patience some times LOL.

That was one of the few guitars I played and it was outstanding. I'm a sucker for the segmented rosettes and cutaways these days.

Thank you, everyone, from the bottom of my heart…I’m overwhelmed by the positive responses all of these guitars have garnered…especially the Texas-sized-stockyard-full of commotion the Bubinga “Solis” has caused.

It’s taken me quite a few days to decompress, as well as to unpack the heart-full of emotions I returned home from the show with. A few days of good quality time with my wife and son have pulled me back down out of the clouds and re-centered me…and I’m ready to get back to my normal routine.

In the next few days I’ll be listing a few guitars for sale in the “Guitars in Stock” thread at the top of this forum, and I’ll also mention it in this thread when I do.

Once again, thank you ALL from the bottom of my heart.
