Road trip

I have dreams of buying an electric, so I'm keeping an eye out for used axes at the same time that I take breaks by surfing for the dream guitar. Naturally, how could I not want to at least try out a replica Red Special by Brian May Guitars? Well, in a truly crushing testament to Queen's not-as-hallowed-as-they-should-be status in the U.S., there are four dealers in the entire country who carry the Mays. One is in Rockford, IL. Rent a car and hit I-90? Not today, but maybe someday. It might almost be easier to wait till the next time I'm in San Francisco or England.

They even make a "Mini May" for travel... or hopeless folks like me. But I think with an electric, I can get a full size. The thin neck will help my small hands.

ETA: Dealer in Tokyo. Maybe I'll stop there in September.
