SUUUUUUPERLOONIE!!!

With the recent very strong showing of the Canadian dollar, there's been a lot of talk about car prices (and prices in general) and whether or not they're changing (or will change soon) to reflect the increased value of the dollar. But I say, in my most poetic manner:

"Cars, schmars
What about guitars?"

It really only occurred to me for the first time last night that other traditionally expensive big ticket items like guitars should be seeing an adjustment in price too. So I'm wondering if now is a good time to buy. Can I pick up a really nice Ovation or Takamine for mere pocket change right now because the loonie is currently so uber-mighty?  No, I didn't think so. Nice thought though, isn't it?
