Re: What's The One That Got Away?
#1 My first Gibson was a 2002 F9 in pristine condition that I bought from Tejon Street Music for about $1,900. It was an absolute dream with the exception of the nut needing some minor repair. I let that bother me for months despite the fantastic play-ability and ended up talking myself into "upgrading" to an F5G for twice the money. I ended up hating the F5G a couple of months later and never found that sound again. Occasionally I look for one of those brown F9s but they are always priced way above what I paid for mine.
#2 Almost every time I don't pull the trigger on a Nashville Flatiron Festival that is priced right.
