The worth of Pepito
Sometimes I buy an item and immediately go, ‘wow, what a dumb move.’ and frown as if someone else must have done this to me and I must find them, and remove their eyes.
This little guitar here was a mere $99. Not much of an investment. But this was one purchase that I never regretted. Alas, I took it to the old Lenny’s ( a slimy, grimy dive down here in d’Atl) where it was promptly and irreversibly destroyed.
But before that, this little guitar that I so aptly named ‘PePito‘ had paid me in full for it’s expense and then much, much more. The pleasure and fun I got from playing tunes on this guy was worth far more than $99. And although I never actually made a Dime playing, I’d say the value of PePito before his untimely death was placed at no less than two grand. well, I mean, whose really quantifying value that can’t be monetized? If we can’t make a direct withdrawal, we often ignore the value. I do know that I placed great value on this guitar and withdrew many good times from it’s account. well, rest in peace my friend…..it was good.
omg i had no idea your acoustic got smashed… i remember the days when you would never leave the house w/ out him and also didn’t you learn guitar w/ him, too? sad.
