I have the good fortune of having good relationships with the local music
stores and my policy is to not buy anything that I haven't tried onstage.
Everything changes when you get on stage. I have gone as far as to rent
an instrument from Long and McQuade in Toronto for a month just to try it
on stage, and I returned it without buying it. Even with all of those
precautions, I have purchased many instruments and amplifiers over the
years and ultimately sold most of them off. When you find something you
like, hang on to it!

Cheers, Ken
