I think some of you may know that I have a pretty debilitating arthritic condition in my left thumb. It has gotten continually worse over the past year. Last night I was playing guitar and reached out for a chord that I hadn't played in a long time and it felt like I was stabbed with a knife at the base of my left thumb. It hurt like a mother! My hand now shakes badly playing in certain positions and I never know when I am going to do something that is going to hurt very badly. When I consider this and where I am in life and getting close to retirement and downsizing at 62, I am now embracing the fact that it is now time to trim down my collection to a much smaller one. With 24 guitars and 11 amps, I won't have the space to keep these anyway soon. As a result, in the coming weeks I am going to start the process of selling off most of my gear which includes a number of Les Paul Historics, and a few other Gibson's and Fenders along with some of my vintage Marshall and Fender amps and other amps. I want to see that the guys on this forum have a shot at them first. If any of you know of some of my gear that you might be interested in, feel free to email me at fleming_s@bellsouth.net . I haven't put prices to them yet though. I have to get an image hosting site set up and then I will start posting them in the classified section. Its been a blast guys and I will continue to hang out here from time to time and drool over the pictures of some of the finest gear to be seen anywhere. :salude
