your collection??

Re: your collection??

Not sure I'm up with some of the earlier 'competitors', but can offer the following:

MIA Fender 'Lonestar' Stratocaster
MIM Fender 'Classic Players' Baja Telecaster
Peavey 'Cropper' Classic
PRS Soapbar SE
Ovation 2001 Collectors
Yamaha MSG Standard
Yamaha APX4a
Yamaha LL400
Yamaha SA2200
Crafter acoustic bass (model not known)
Cort A5
Warmoth Hollow Body Strat (H-x-H)
Warmoth Telecaster
PRS Custom 22 Artist
Tokai DCII

Check the sig for some of them

Think that's it, but still have my eyes on a singlecut, another couple of Warmoth's and perhaps something from Santa Cruz

Warmoth Telecaster
I love that guitar man. You did one heck of a job on it. It is absolutely stunning.

Re: your collection??

You soooooooooooo need that guitar man!! That is alot of money though.:(

You're not helping! LOL

I really do dig it. When I bought the trans black KV2 I was actually looking for a Natural one but couldn't find it. Now that I finally got my credit cards cleared and am trying to turn over a new leaf one pops up on ebay. I don't think I'll be able to do it this time but there will be more.
 
Re: your collection??

The main rides... an '02 Lester w/a one-piece back! Loaded AII bridge, jazz neck; '04 PRS Swamp Ash Special w/C5, vintage rail, AII neck.

'72 or '73 hardtail Strat w/late 80s Chandler neck. Loaded w/DiMarzio velvets; '99 Am Dlx Tele w/Texas Special bridge & Duncan 90 in the neck. Bigsby is aftermarket & a flawless install. Think I'm gonna sell it though... Killer ride. Everyone loves it but i haven't bonded...

'86 Custom Shop Melody Maker. In the process of being refinished here... it was VERY poorly done with black spraypaint! You can see a hair bit of it on the left edge of the body... Thankfully they never touched the Neck! Has been an amazing slide axe so far... one-piece body!

Yep... a Rasp, a sander, hammer and a tope rope should do the trick! Might look like WW's then?

Hmmm....not what I had in mind. That'll just make 'em look like those cheesy relics. GJ's guitars are way too stylish for that. Maybe a game of DodgeJam? One guy plays while the others throw kitchen utensils at him. There's bound to be some "contact." Let's do it!

Whaddya mean? I still do plenty of dodgy gigs now! Last Sunday I filled in for a buddy of mine in a small pub, set up in the corner on the floor, no stage, 3 piece guitar rock, let's go!

As Confucius said, "Before success...choppy wood, after success...choppy wood."

So let's get choppin' and carve some initials into those guitars. Whaddya say GJ?

Re: your collection??

They do look pretty shiny. I probably polished them all the day I took those picks.
I take care of them, but the sunburst strat and LP Goldtop have most of the mileage on them....a couple fret dresses each.

Lately my 3 main players are the blueburst strat, LP Goldtop, and ES-335.
The least played guitars are the expensivo Black Beauty and PRS's. The G&L Legacy Deluxe is up for sale, if anyone's interested in a chubby birdseye C neck G&L.
