Just got my r9, she has been only w/ me for about 2hrs... looks perferct, weighs less than my r8, acoustically it sings and it smells perfect too... cant wait to plug her tomorrow... :D


bakit laging "she" ang guitar?  bakit hindi "he"?  sabagay, strange naman kung sabihin natin na "i love my guitar" tapos "he" ang guitar...  :lol:


hehe oo nga para hindi Brokeback Guitarist ang dating.

i've been playing lighter tunes lately, and my 50th anniv Strat delivers the goods. i've been a whammy bar guy since before and my other guitar with a Floyd Rose is still "under the knife," so i guess i'd have to maximize what my current main axe has to offer for now. but to answer this thread's question, my answer is no because every guitar has characteristics that are unique and may be more useful for certain tonal/functional needs. but i'm happy with my guitar for now :)

I don't care whether it is a $2500 John Suhr or a highly modified Squier that cost you less than P20,000.  

The idea of this thread is to know if you think if you had more money, would you probably be ditching your main axe now hoping for something better?  Of course if you smoke through your Squier Strat now, chances are you would smoke more on a Suhr Strat.  But that is not the point.   By your standards, do you find your main axe perfect for your needs?
yes. but I want another sound...I can get that sound from another axe...so I want to buy another axe.

Wife: Oh, ano naman yang bagong binili mo?
Me: Naku, it na ang pinaka ultimate na guitar, hon. Hard to find ito, rare. It does everything and sounds the best of all guitars!

siguro naiinis lang, kasi everytime we buy, we justify it saying- its the ultimate guitar for me.... the first time i said that was when i bought a 90's gibson lp std, then i upgraded to a classic plus then a classic premium plus... i never thought id be able to afford historics then kaya ayus na yun.... last time i said the ultimate word was when i purchased my friends flamed r8... after several months i was gassing for an r9.... sabi ko wala na tong katapusan... my perception that the guitar is "perfect" doesnt last that long- too bad :lol:

hehe... whenever I arrive home carrying a new guitar and my wife complains that I have too many... I always say:

I would rather have 1 wife and 6 guitars rather than 6 wives and 1 guitar.

OR

pagbigyan mo na ko at ang hilig ko is guitars, mas sakit sa ulo e kung babae ang hilig ko...

so far I seem to get away with this type of reasoning. hehe.  Another thing I so when I have new is gear is to involve the Misis in the testing process...I will A/B gears and guitars for her, ipaparinig ko yung differences between each gear, and then she will be enlightened.

i have some strats, an ibanez RG and an acoustic ...everything in between is covered by my Variax...so enough na ko sa guitar side, i also have a versatile amp(mabigat nga lang)...right now im pedal-shopping.

well i have two main guitars, a fender strat and a jasmine acoustic/

so far i'm satisfied naman with the performance of my guitars. what i'm not satisfied with is my performance, hehe.

the strat gives me all sorts of sounds, from church clean, to blues dirt, to grungy sounds (which i like, hehe. pearl jam boy ako eh, hehe)

the acoustic naman allows me to take my music wherever i want. and has the loudness and boom to "make lunod" my voice, hehe. lalo na pag may sabit ako, hehe. and you can plug it in and rock out, hehe.

i can't say they're perfect, but they're just right for me, hehe.
