无法自拔的Takamine,限量版。

今天还是离不开guitar的话题。

昨天下午,再次回去M字号吉他店那里去看看,结果我还是喜欢那一把Brazilian Rosewood制成的Takamine。我想。。。应该是下定决心要买那一把吉他了吧!难道这就叫做无法自拔?

跟家人朋友讨论这件事,有反对也有赞成。

`爸爸很爽快的说,go ahead! 妈妈就说问问专家吧。

`那当然,那家店的顾问和老板也说应该买,因为以我的身份,我也算是个音乐人,是吃音乐这行饭的。而我之前那一把吉他,其实应该是属于学生级的吉他而已。现在拥有也不算过分。

`本店老板也说,image是靠包装的。在台上拿起这把吉他,别人会有不同的看待。还有如果是因为觉得自己还不敢拥有这么贵重的吉他,而买一把几千块,较中级的吉他。最终还是会耿耿于怀想买当初看中的那一把。这样算来也是浪费了那几千块钱。

`一位写歌的朋友也赞同,选吉他就好想碰见新女友一样。找到了适合自己,又喜欢,才是最重要的。再选别的时候,总会觉得比不上之前的好。

也不例外,当然也有不赞同的反应。

`一些同事们就觉得,太贵了。因为这笔数目真的可以做很多东西了,可以是买车子或房子的down payment。而且已经可以买架钢琴了,总算看的到是一个大乐器,幹嘛花那么多钱来买块“烂木”。另外,也说我又不是用这把吉他来赚钱的,就不如profesional吉他手,他们是凭那把吉他而赚回十倍的数目。或许先不用去到那么“尽”。当我看中那一把几千块的Taylor时,他们就觉得,买便宜的就好了啦。而这一次说到这一把,他们立刻认为,买回那把Taylor好了啦。

但大家都觉得,不管别人怎么讲,也应该是讲不动我了。。。

结果。

517

对我来说,真是一个历史性的日子。是台湾朋友,诺帆的生日?还是天王巨星王力宏的生日?

那都不重要。。。

2003年的517那天,我担任了周杰伦演唱会的表演嘉宾,在15千个观众的国际舞台上,自弹自唱了这首“黑色幽默”。当天,受到了不少的肯定,也见识了很多东西,突然很想当歌星。那天也因为有这很重要的表演,我买了这一把,对我来说非常昂贵的吉他。妈妈也为了我这件事,立刻开车从Penang来到KL买下了它,送给我。

三年后的517,我把“他”带回家了。

“他”就是限量版的Takamine – EF75J,全世界只有30把的第14把。

    hi,daniel…how are u?听说你病了,现在好了吗?好好照顾身体,别累坏了。。。
    看了你写的这篇心情故事,它突然令我想起一个故事,虽然是从电视剧里知道的,但我觉得它很有意思,所以想和你分享。。。

    它是说,有一位出名的小提琴家在他一场很重要的演奏会上发生了壮况,他的那把名贵的小提琴被人掉包了,琴盒里装的却是一把再普通不过的小提琴,但最后他还是没放弃,并用那把再普通不过的小提琴成功的把那演奏会演完了。。。他说,其实我在乎的并不是那把琴,也不管我手上拿的是名贵的琴或是一把普通的琴,因为那些并不重要,重要的是音乐的旋律已经在我心里。。。

    不 是 烂 木 啦~ 我 老 师 也 有 告 诉 我 为 何 有 些piano 酱 贵. 是 因 为 它 的 木 质~ 好 的 木, 弹 出 来 的 声 音 也 会 比 较 优 美~ 对 吧?
    所 以 有 时 买 贵 一 点 也 值 得!
    >> 个 人 意 见 啦~

    买吉guitar其实就像选女朋友一样….一把贵的guitar就像一个很好的女孩,你要有一定的能力才能给她幸福;就像你一定要有能力才能拥有这个guitar一样…当你拥有她,你就要会懂得珍惜她;当你拥有这把guitar,你就要好好利用它展现你的特点….记得要珍惜….

    欣赏你的果断!跟着自己的喜爱走!你说的对!当你看上一件物品却因为它的价钱昂贵而舍其求二,虽然是好像不让自己浪费多余的钱,但相信不用多久时间就很快遗憾当初为何不是买自己认为是最好的了。。。
    你虽不是专业的吉它手,但你的音乐创作若无一把你的心头好吉它,相信也很难让你畅心所欲的创作了,更会让自己耿耿于怀。。对吧?希望你能和你的新“爱人”合作无间,创造出更多的美妙音乐吧!
