NGD: Player II

Post image

Got a promotion at work and saw Guitar Center was running these at $679. I wanted one for a while so after talking it over with the wife, we went today to check them out. The floor model was pretty dirty and dry so I asked the manager if he had another one in the back, and he brought this out new in the box. As soon as I saw the color and streak in the rosewood, I said yes.

What a beauty ! I’m still thinking in between a modded Classic Vibe or a Player 2 Tele. 🤔 I heard the neck and pickups on the player are a big step up compared to the CV. I played a player 2 once in a guitar store and loved it. But it’s nearly twice as much. 😬

This color guitar is only 200 more (at guitar center) than a new classic vibe and will beat them 9/10 in a one on one barring any lemons. I’d say go for it and try to work some overtime if possible. Or sell a pedal or something to cover the difference. Let me know what you pick! Either way new guitar day is a good day!
