R-13 though. There are a lot of other instrument brands out there for you
to try. >>

I have been longing for an R-13 for a long time. I have an opportunity to
buy one on monthly payments. 10 months, same as cash. This seems like a
wonderful opportunity to take advantage of.

I am however having a hard time taking the plunge. I just wanted to hear
from other people with the R-13. On the whole, it seems that the people who
own them really treasure them. I will definitely make my decision by noon
today. Who knows, tomorrow I could be the proud owner of an R-13!

The only drawback is that I will not be able to choose which one they will
send me nor try it out. I hope the company gives a trial period.

There are absolutely no music stores in my area that carry the R-13, or any
decent instruments for that matter. I have to go on blind faith.

Last night I dreamt that I was in once of the local music stores and they had
two R-13's for me to try. I picked one, and all of a sudden, workers came in
to take all the merchandise out of the store. They were repossessing it and
closing the store for good! I panicked because I really found one that I
liked! The owner came over to me and must have saw the terrified look in my
face and he told me to take the clarinet, free of charge! I was so happy, I
cried.

How many of us out there are so obsessed that we dream of playing
instruments, or performances? <No one else but a musician can understand
this> Or am I nuts?

Thanks,
