Yeah, it's fun to look at stuff. I saw Collings described as "sounding more like a Martin than a Martin," so I looked for a video demo. I doubt my guitar would sound a whole lot different if Diego had been playing it instead. I'm at the point of diminishing returns with the GPC, so I'll sit tight and make sure I pursue this previous hobby and just stop with acquisition (which I'm known for). I wish my hands and fingers were as nimble as they were 40 years ago, and my memory for that matter. But it's a good hobby- healthy, and somewhat of an investment where I won't lose too much.
My next step would probably getting an amp for this GPC since it has a built-in pickup. I asked a guy at Guitar Center about it and he said they had stuff used that was selling for about a third of new at $50-200. I'd rather spend $200 instead of $600, but who knows what's the best way to go. I'm sure many on this forum can provide good advice. The next thing I would do is get an electric guitar, but first things first. Once I know what I'm doing and can play decently, it'll be fun to try out different guitars to see what I notice and how the neck feels.
I wish I could sing. I'm horrible, but hold hopes for lessons.
