Lets see the Guitars!

[Marine Airedale]

Have not had it confirmed but I heard (might be because I said it though) that AndyinEverson plays one of these.

I got quite a few, including quite a few I made. Used to be a pro restorer of guitars back in the day. This is one corner of my guitar room / office.

Here's my baby. I got this brand new as a birthday present in 1977 from my parents. Played the snot out of it for years but life got in the way and hadn't played it for 20+ years.

I sent it to a great guy in Connecticut who did an outstanding neck reset on it. If you are interested, details are here: Customer Repair - 1977 Yamaha FG-335 | Yamaha Vintage FG Acoustic Guitars

Missing in this picture is my American Standard Strat and Fender Mustang III amp that a friend borrowed at Christmas and I haven't seen it since.
I traded a coworker 1000rds of 5.56 ammo for the Fender guitar post Sandy Hook, it had never been played and was worth way more than what I spent on the ammo.

I seem to play the keyboard a lot more these days. Maybe one day I'll actually take a lesson.

Recently traded my Ibanez for this Art & Luthrie. Fits me better.
The mando I bring on business trips.

I almost bought one of those Art and Lutherie's! Sweet guitars and made in Canada, not China.

You pick up that "39" from Kelly's collection?

Kelly promised he would sell me a Lucite Dan Armstrong (it used to hang above the office by the LP Specials) if and when he liquidated. The stuff at the store were his "junkers" after all. That was thirty years ago. I didn't get to buy it. Guess he forgot in all the excitement.

[Nocaster]

There used to be a band around Chicago called Devil in The Woodpile, and the bass player used a washtub bass. He could really play that thing well, and got amazing grooves out of it. Dont know if they are still around

Those A&Ls are well made guitars. Good handling even above the octave. One of my acoustics is a Larrivee, also Canadian. Problem is, you can only play songs in the key of "eh."

I am not certain but I suspect it is tougher duty being around me is when I like you instead of when I do not.

As soon as I get a little better, and save up a few clams, I'm really wanting this Epiphone Les Paul Standard in Cherry Burst.

I have the ami by a&l. When moving by pods a freak accident happened and a chair was hanging off the neck for who knows how long. And there was no damage. At work we have one that has stood up to 10 years in the psych ward. It is quite worn, but still plays well.

Here's a couple that I was going to sell, hung them on the wall instead. They get used way more than when sitting the case.


Sold a bunch two years ago - down to these two, one Tele, two Strats, and a couple of acoustics. I still need to sell one Strat, and the acoustics and buy a Martin...
Someday. At least I'm down to only amps that I built.

 

[HA556]

Any other string pickers?!

 

[HA556]

Impulse buy! Picked up this Epiphone Les Paul Special II Limited Edition today. Going to be a noisy winter!

 

[CRBMoA]

Glad you found it!

 

[HA556]

Glad you found it!

Like new condition and even had the stickers on the back still! Got it for a $100 bucks.

 

[CRBMoA]

WOW! Somebody likes you more than I would have (J/K).

Congratulations!!
