I have been retired for 3 years now and at 57 feel very fortunate. I own a few nice guitars and am one of those guys who refuses to pay $70 for a polo shirt even though I can well afford it. What is it about a Collings that makes you feel it is worth the high price tag? I own, supposedly, $25,000 in guitars but none worth more than $5,000 and most much less! Does the Collings, which I briefly played an acoustic in a shop, guitars really justify their cost? Thanks for your feedback!.
i suppose it's up to each person to decide if a guitar is 'worth' what you must pay to own it - i will say it's my impression that these are among the finest guitars ever built by any builder and i also am of the opinion i'm not alone in that opinion!
Sweet chords. The transitions between harmony and dissonance are flowing softly like moonlight on a lazy river. You and Ed did a great job on this one. Collings did a good blend of warm vibrating wood and the all-too-often sterile electron dance.
Wow ! amazing tone you have on that guitar ! such a unique blend between acoustic and electric. Just came across this because I was looking for an example for how the ecg24 strings sound... I'm thinking to put some of those on my tele...
Hey could I make a request for you to teach that It would be very appreciated just listening to this is helping me alot with what stuff i am dealing with
hello....thanks for watching and the kind words! I've had several requests for a lesson on this tune and i appreciate yours.....i hope to get around to it. Take care my friend,
Lovely arrangement, Dale! This song always touches me somehow. And I always loved Andy Williams limpid voice or Sinatra's darker tones on this song. But this arrangement and your sweet guitar really sing as well. Great job. - targuit
thanks so much for the kind words.........i agree this is just a timeless song with lots of great memories behind it........thanks for sharing some of yours! All the best sir,
One of my all time favorite songs. Only thing missing is Andy Williams sitting next to you singing, now THAT would be perfection! Thanks so much Dale!
Amazing what you find on youtube......incredible job, my friend.
