It won't be long until I can get my gear,..Fender MIM Standard Strat,and Fender Blues Deluxe RI Amp. But first things first,...get fishing boat paid off(May 2nd),and if need be,...sell boat to finance guitar and amp purchase. Heck,I don't fish much anymore to begin with and boat was very rarely used in the three years I have had the darn thing,...so might as well be rid of it. That's the plan.anyway. A fishing buddy is trying to talk me out of selling the boat,though,...what he doesn't know is that if I sell boat,the money I get from it will buy guitar and amp. That said,...I have either a Candy Apple Red,or Midnight Wine colored Strat in mind(take either one,...they both look good). I have another plan in place(no,...I'm not going to steal it) if I choose to keep boat at my fishing buddy's suggestion,but I'm not disclosing that one at the moment. Either way I go,...I can't wait to get playing again and get music back into my life!

Okay,...and I'm sure my fishing buddy would agree with you on keeping the boat. As for
the strat,...Candy Apple Red she will be!

Sell the boat to the buddy then you could still buy your gear and go fishing with him!

You're welcome to have the 800$ Made in Indonesia Squier Strat (Candy Apply Red) that was falsely shipped to me. Just saying.

I'm still laughing at that one.

Remember the old joke about the two happiest days in your life being the day you buy your fishing boat and the day you sell it!

I vote for the candy apple red, too.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Yep,...I have heard that one before and still get a laugh from it,...but there might be some truth in that statement as well! I vote Candy Apple Red as well,...maple fretboard or rosewood fretboard? I kinda like rosewood,but that's just me!

Taking a "demotion" from capt'n to first mate is out of the question! :),...I guess the boat stays,then! As for the strat's fretboard,...the maple would look better on a Candy Apple Red guitar! You talked me into a maple fretboard and remaining capt'n of my own ship all in one post! :D :D

Remember the old Chinese proverb. Give a man a guitar and he can play for a lifetime, teach him how to fish from the bank and he don't need no stinkin boat..................I think I got that right, I'm not sure :oops: :lol: :lol:

Get rid of the boat. Worse things happen at sea.

Chicks don't dig fishermen.
