I've driven standard 2WD vehicles most my life, at least in the really bad weather.  When I first got my Saturn, it was the first AWD vehicle I had every driven.  It was only a week old when I found myself slowing skidding around a curve with no control.  It took some time to get used to the feel and response of AWD.

No kidding!  WIth AWD it's easy to slip MUCH wider in a turn than with FWD or RWD.

Most of us here probably grew up driving RWD and can go pretty much anywhere with it.  AWD just makes it easier and less hassle.

I'll stick with my 2wd pickup, thanks. There have been a few instances where 4wd would have been nice but I'll manage.

Now go get that bass!

I'll bet it is the lowest priced EB-0F in the store.

It looks great, I can't imagine EB0F in solid colours no matter how tempting it can be when you have an axe with a bad fin.
I love my EB0F, my favourite short scale :)

I checked out the Les Paul Triumph, it looked pretty nice. I noticed this acoustic last time I was there.........




I have that logo on my '68 EB-2DC, Gibson used it on this new guitar.

Other than buying a Gibson guitar stool, I was on my best behavior, this time........  ;D
