Wine plus late night browsing =

I seem to have yet again bought another guitar after too much wine last night.

At least this time it’s not a few thousand, just a couple of hundred:

I have always been curious if these are ok or not, and will find out in a few days I suppose.

I always buy things on Amazon when drunk....

They need a breathalyser attached to your pc which you have to pass before being able to buy anything.

In vino veritas 
As regret purchases go, you'll turn over this one quick... unless you find out that it is far better than the price tag, get a few things fettled & really like it

I have a feeling I will probably be taking advantage of their 30 day money back guarantee...

You can't have buyer's remorse already, you haven't even got it yet.

Furious wife/partner remorse? or more likely afraid to tell said wife/partner.

Reminds me of the Cort M series and the G&L Eclat.

I may be pleasantly surprised and it will be built well enough, play well enough and sound good enough.  

If that’s the case I will keep it, but in the cold light of day the headstock and logo are bloody terrible right?

and I separated from my Mrs last month so no concerns there.

Next time you get a bit tipsy why don’t you try to play eBay?

Well other people try to stop you from winning. But if you’re committed, you can pretty much win every time

Ah, ok, thankfully there was nothing ending on eBay I liked around the time I was in a buying mood last night ;-)

There's enough room on the headstock to have "Upgraded" added, and everyone knows that then puts it into R8 territory.

That looks bloody nice for the money...

Chances are it will be better built and finished than the R8 I bought last year @vonLayzonfon ;

Many a time I have parcels turn up that I didn’t realise I had ordered.

Two guitars this year were just “a thought”, a bottle later they were ordered.

Threads like this make me thankful I don't drink - I'm enough of liability when sober!

I saw a post on reddit the other day that made me laugh: guy got super stoned, ordered a pizza, and forgot all about it. 45 minutes later, as he's wishing more than anything that he had pizza to eat, the doorbell rings. In his words "It was like a gift from the stoner gods"
