Well, I was right about the \"I\'ll probably come away with something completely different\"........hahaha.
Had a really great Saturday - like a kid in a sweetshop - well - several sweetshops....lol.
Amazing the difference in \"service\" between the big shops (eg Windows) and the smaller \"self owned\" shops. The bigger shops only seem to want a quick sale and didn\'t seem to like it when I asked to try out \"a few\". The smaller shops however - completely different attitude. Went into 3 small music shops and said \"I\'m looking for a new acoustic\". All 3 shop owners just said to take my pick and try any that I liked the look of. Infact the guy in one of them couldn\'t have been more helpful. He just said, \"right, we\'ll start at this end and work our way along\"........tried about 12 guitars in his shop.
After all the trapsing around, I finally found the one I eventually chose, in Shields.....lol.....isn\'t that always the case.....lol.
Note to self:
Must send wife & family to Manchester more often
