    Self Challenge

    So I always read "how do you keep them all restrung" whenever I mention about how many guitars I am lucky to have hoarded over the years. I scored a box of 25 sets of D'addario 10-46 strings the other day with a goal of 25 guitars restrung in 10 days. Did 2 yesterday my Dean Korean EVO60 and my Schulte Les Paul. Today I did a Hamer Daytona, Hamer T-51, Dean Baby Z, and my Dean DOA ML. I did this last one the other day and it isn't counting in my 25/10 deal.













    Cant do this kind of thing without poking yourself once or twice.....

            This looks like its actually on fire - gold hardware + chicken heads = love it. Thats the nicest ML I've ever seen

                Can't say I can choose one over another, they all have their own character and are excellent samples of their respective guitar shapes/types.

                  I don't change the strings on any of mine until I'm ready to play it for quite awhile, but that's just me.

                    Re: Self Challenge

                    Sadly, I dont play mine enough to need to change strings.. And I wipe down every time I am done. Most all my string changes have been due to pickup swaps..

                    At least most of yours have hardtails!!!
                    Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.

                        Yeah man, they sound good. The P90 Baby Z is a hottie! I've also put a small piece of tape on each one with the date of change. I figure 6 months on most but some that get played frequently like the Schulte and the Special will go about 3 months. Everyone of these is out on a stand in the livingroom. I have 10 more of those before I get to ones in the cases. I will swap a couple into the case too I think but ummmm which one(s).

                        What a great day.

                          I agree, all those guitars are really cool.
