    I've not played many guilds, too acoustic in the neck department for me...

    Eventually, I'll get a good acoustic, my son has a decent Ibanez that I
use so it's pretty far dowwn the list.  At least as long as he goes to college
here. :)

    Thats pretty much what I'm looking to do right now.  The guy I'm supposed
to be starting a blues thing with has a 4-track set-up.  We played with a bunch
of my pieces during the feeling out process and he's quite interested in laying
some tracks as soon as he upgrades to an 8-track.  Assuming we ever get things
off the ground.
