As y'all may know I picked up an x810 from a newer member here, Mitch, back about 6 weeks (?) or so ago. Well try as I might the bill for my Paypal card arrived and she opened it... oops!
It has been over 2 weeks of prodding, needling, pestering... you get the idea. So last night I finally had had enough and set up a treasure hunt for her. The x410 sits in our family room over by the bookcase and I replaced it with the new x810, putting the JazzStrad back in it's case downstairs. The idea was to have her go down and search thru the cases looking for a new guitar, find the x410 and then realize something else was in it's place upstairs.
...should have blocked her view better walking thru the kitchen on the way downstairs ...
It was the headstock that tipped her off, and I swear she barely glanced over there as she passed through the kitchen. Anyway, the 23rd of December is now a day to be remembered in our memories with special fondness.
Thanks again Mitch. You even got the pick thickness right!
