So about 6 month's ago I buy a yellow Mahalo on a whim when picking up strings for one of my son's bass and a mute for another of my son's trumpet.
The Mahalo sellers learned a good lesson from street drug dealers. The first hit is free or close enough that you do it anyway.
One month after my first taste, I need more. Painted plywood is just not doing it for me anymore. I want a taste of the real stuff. I get in touch with the legendary MGM and get hooked up with a KALA KA ST.
Bliss.
For about 5 months.
But I am ever curious about better things. I see and listen to Jake and Aldrine playing Kamakas, I see and listen to Ken Middleton's awesome reviews of the mighty Kanile'a, I hear the wispers of the mighty Martin's and Gibsons's of days gone by.
I once again hunger for more.
Last night I sucombed and purchased a Kanile'a K1 tenor. I am getting in deeper and deeper and using progressively harder and harder stuff.
Is there an end to this madness?
