I got you, but I am getting a little (lot) older and I really don’t need a 20k+ guitar to leave for my wife to have to get rid of. I have banjos and one mandolin worth more than that, but there is a more sentimental reason that I still hang on to them. But I will eventually sell those too. My children have zero interest. Also arthritis in my left index finger is advancing making 4 finger chords on mandolin and even acoustic guitar painful.I’d regret selling a 64 Telecaster as well. If you were playing it you wouldn’t be sitting on a guitar you don’t play. You say want to play more electric, just sayin’… Makes no sense to sell a Tele so that you can buy a $5000 Les Paul so you can see if you like playing electric. End of rant.
But, I’ll sure consider keeping the Tele, as it is awful hard to beat.
