Okay, fess up. That Sunburst moves you more than the blonde too.

I don't know what it is about 'bursts, but in this house, bursts make one reach for their wallet. Blondes...meh

We are both burst boys.......

Vin, just got the news.. I'm about to start up our set. I wanted to tell you that I'm happy for you bro.
Im glad you reached out to Rainbow. The right thing happened. It's not over. You will buy something from Rainbow..

Harvey refused and said I want Tommy to get the sale. Harvey's concern was that I got exactly what I want and that his friend got the sale. How is that for a man of honor. I spent a while trying to talk Harvey into getting me that axe. He wouldn't do it. He kept saying that TMZ needs the sale more than me. Honorable man !!!

So a LeGrand it is. Makes more sense. I have 2 L5's.

So the L5P is still there in Tucson ... just an hour away from my house .. and Harvey would probably give me a great deal on it ....

You were supposed to remove it from my easy grasp LOL

My bank account won't let me do much in the way of pricey guitars at the moment

Enjoy the Le Grand

At that price point, you should have what you want. IMO, that burst smokes the lemonburst. Congrats in advance!

Vinny,
Wow - what a turn of events. I didn't realize you already had 2 L5's - then this is a no brainer. I love ,love my LeGrand and you will too. I also like the bursts - they are just more interesting .

Good luck Vinny - and a happy reconnection with TMZ.
