Guitar

Okay, so here’s the thing…

I need a new guitar.

When I first started the Kickstarter project for my debut CD, I was planning on using the little accoustic Seagull guitar that was given to me once upon a time by a friend of mine.  She’s still got a nice enough sound… but she’s got some issues.  I’ve had her for ten years and she was used when she was given to ME, so she’s not a young guitar.  Her neck is just slightly warped which makes her tough to keep in tune… I typically have to tune her once every couple of songs when I play her live, if not more.  And now, her pickup is falling apart… making her a really tough guitar to work with to record.

I *can* work with her, and if I have to I will.  BUT, I was thinking you might be able to help me out.  Since I didn’t need a new guitar when I started the kickstarter project, I didn’t factor it into the fundraising.  But I’m thinking maybe I should.  Or, at the very least, I should let YOU know.

The guitar I’m looking at to replace my Seagull is a Luna Eclipse Trans Purple accoustic electric.  She looks like a pretty decent guitar for the price (she retails around $370), I’ve heard good things about Luna, and the sound she makes in the videos that they have on the website is the kind of sound that I’m looking for.  She’s not a Taylor, but she’s pretty.
  You can find out more about her here:  http://www.lunaguitars.com/acousticproduct/eclipsetranspurple.php

In order to be able to afford to buy her AND do the recording, I’ll need to pull in between $900 and $950 from the Kickstarter project.

So that’s our new goal.

What do you think?  Can you help?

Much love,
Crystal
