我的結他雜記: 要買好結他

欲望真的停不了,不過想法有點改變。那是因為一張舊照片,當中有一支是向(有錢)同學借來的結他,起碼廿年歷史,上拍賣網找找,估計值US$1000有多,相信除通脹後這支結他多少也升了值。對我的啟發是,還是多儲點錢買支好少少的結他,至低限度也保值,說不定還會升值!

目前目標是老字號中檔貨色like a Gibson ES-137:

$2000 for a big brand name. It's 1 pound lighter than a Les Paul too. It's comfortable to hold (I mean the body is not huge) and the neck is comfortable to press. I also like the jazzy sound from the neck pickup. And it's not heavy. Very practical. Just wish it's more "pretty" You know, those big hollow-body archtop with tail piece look classier.

The Fender Japan Telecaster Thinline is another of my target:

Gold pickguard on white body with f-hole. Not cheesy but classy!
