New to TA from South Carolina

[Af1fe]

Hello to all,
I will be taking delivery of a Bulldog with the Honey burst finish sometime in March and I can hardly wait. This is my first TA. i have been using my instructors Bulldog and had to have one of my own. My instructor "Steve Watson" saved me from making a big mistake. I had my heart set on another brand and he showed me the differences between them. The other brand didn't even come close. The TA sold itself.

I have been reading posts on the forum for the past several months and I would like to comment on how professional everyone is treated on this site. Looking forward to posting more in the future (especially after I get the Bulldog!).

Welcome. Can't wait to see pics of your new baby!

[Briggs]

Welcome to the Forum! You won't find a nicer/more helpful bunch of folks. Plus, it's nice to have another member from the south. :)

Oh yeah, Pics are a must once that new puppy rolls in...

Greetings from Aiken. Welcome. I think you'll find this to be a great forum.

Just got notified that my Bull Dog shipped today! Should have it by Monday. Might have to take a vacation day just so I can play it once it arrives. :D

[Pietro]

remember, you post pics on the forum FIRST... THEN you play the guitar... jus' sayin'...

You have the right perspective, I'd take a vacation day too. You'll love the guitar and the people who made it.

[Big Harry]

vacation might be a very good idea ;)
Bulldog deserves it !

wow Af1fe, you're not sounding so good...wait was that a cough? You might need to call in sick...

[soloZ06]

Vacation? I think that calling in sick is in order. I always feel better when I can stay at home and play guitar :)

[Af1fe]

Guys, will do on the photos. Uh oh I'm starting to feel a little feverish......

[TSAdeimy]

One leads to another....Enjoy and Welcome!!!

[Af1fe]

My Bull Dog finally came in. Got the message it was shipping on 4/17, but they said that Tom was having photos made of it. Well I can tell you it was worth the wait. My photos don't come close to how it actually looks. It is perfect! Steve Watson called me today before my music lesson to tell me that it had arrived. And it actually does play like warm butter.

Nice specs. I have a soft spot for Seafoam Green classics with maple necks. :)

[Af1fe]

Honestly it came in a few weeks ago but I just couldn't put it down long enough to post photos. I wish my iPad's camera could show the true color. It is awesome! And yes two are better than one. ;)

Nice! I bet it sounds even better than it looks too. Love the cream guard/pickups with Seafoam green. Maple neck matches perfectly with that scheme. It's giving me GAS!

[strat56]

Awesome!!!!

[Big Harry]

Dream guitars !!! :)

[GDane1]

Great looking guitar again!
