Equipment That You Sold and Regret

[Mr Rael]

My 1979 natural finish Stratocaster. I found out later it was a special release only for that year, or so I've been told. I got a lousy $500 for it. In fact, its putting me in a bad mood just thinking about it.

[Mr Rael]

Easy: the '59 Stratocaster I'd owned since I was 17 and sold in the 80s so I could buy a pointy guitar and the '65 Gibson Es-335 I sold a few years later because I thought a semi-hollowbody wasn't cool anymore.

Kinda makes my sad strat story kinda pathetic.

A sunburst 12-string Strat. How stupid can you get? Every time I think about it, I lose faith in myself.

Don't feel bad. By the way I have some beach front property in the Sahara you might be interested in.

Oh this is easy (and painful to recount)...I traded in a 1966 Fender Jaguar (Candy-Apple red w/matching headstock) + money to buy a brand new Gianinni Craviola acoustic in the summer of 1978.

Crap...what was I thinking?!?!?!?!?!?

Crap...what was I thinking?!?!?!?!?!?

That you wanted a brand new Craviola??

That you wanted a brand new Craviola??

I know, I wanted a cut-away acoustic and there were not too many out at the time within my budget.
