[QUOTE="smoker13, post: 556540, member: 3962"] i971. winter. I get off the bus at high school in Springfield, Mass and see a friend of mine. I tell him "I'm skipping school and thumbing to Boston (90 miles or so) to buy that Martin Ukelele I saw last month when I was there wih Killy. 75 bucks. I called yesterday and the guy said he still had it and he'd hold it". We get to Boston after a typical 1971 hitch. If you were around then you get the picture. Anyway, I've got the uke in my hand and the guy says "the only thing changed was we had to repair a crack on the face". I mull it over. and over......."Thanks but I think I'll pass." Yes, I've thought about how stupid a move that was on my part many time, MANY time since but you know what? I've made even more stupider moves, and they were A LOT stupider and the money/value involved ws/is a LOT more. Still....An old Martini uke (I think it was 1930's vintage)...................I'll still kick myself [/QUOTE]
