Hi everyone
I have only been playing a short while, and have been enjoying my Yamaha YAS-62.
I practice heavily, and my teacher noticed a few loose screws on my horn already after 6 months.
I would like to buy a second "back up horn" which I can take on holiday (hmmm have to pass that one by my wife yet
) and for when the Yamaha gets serviced. I hate to think of being without, even for a few days.
I have always hankered after a vintage (cheaper) horn, but did not know enough about the mechanics or what to look for.
How difficult is it to swap between lets say, an old pro level Martin, and a new horn?
1)Is it possible to enjoy both horns, or will one get sidelined. (I am used to owning 3-4 guitars, and swapping between them)
2)My chops are pretty fast on my Yamaha, is it best for my playing to stick to one horn??
3) What If I love the new (old) horn more than my expensive Yamaha? How do explain this to my wife??
4) Is this just early onset GAS, or will it strengthen my interest and love of this fine hobby?
Answers please. I am about to make a purchase.........
