Cat :shock: And that's my response.

Kidding, I couldn't agree more. I tried to sell my Ibanez GRG several times and best offer was $75. Should have just took it. Spent $210 on the guitar.]]> Opinions and Polls Ghost https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333135 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333134 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 09:46:36 +0000

I have had one pure impulse buy though... there is an electric bass sitting here that I bought purely because I fell in love with the look of it. I wasn't looking to buy a bass and it probably isn't the best guitar, but then I can't play it (yet), either.

Having it there makes me happy knowing it is there waiting for me to get my funky thang happening :roll:]]> Opinions and Polls bkangel https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333106 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333105 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 03:48:35 +0000 Opinions and Polls JoeHempel https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333105 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333035 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 16:24:34 +0000 Opinions and Polls rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333035 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333002 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 08:10:41 +0000 Joe, I was a bit surprised to read that your hollow body isn't versatile, and muddy to boot. It's only got one pick-up in it? It's got one neck pickup and that's it. Maybe I just need to change the strings to electric strings rather than flat wounds, but I'm not getting a good sound out of it in my opinion.]]> Opinions and Polls JoeHempel https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-333002 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-332996 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 07:39:40 +0000
My last guitar (an Aussie Cole Clark acoustic) was bought because I was waiting for a $2 shop (in Australia a bargain shop) to open. The guitar store across the road had opened early so I thought I'd pass 15" there and walked out with the Cole Clark which I'd never ever considered buying nor any guitar at that point in time.

I've only regretted one guitar purchase (of 20 or so) and that was an ESP LP-style guitar with active pickups which I sold a few months after buying it. And now I regret selling it as it was a beautifully-made guitar and if I'd kept I would've swapped the active pups for passive ones.]]> Opinions and Polls BluezOldy https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-332996 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-332994 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 06:53:18 +0000 Opinions and Polls gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/anyone-buy-just-because/paged/2/#post-332994
