eddiekatcher Joined: Mar 14, 2006 Posts: 2779 Atlanta, GA	Posted on Oct 16 2015 10:19 PM Those are some impressive lists, gentlemen. I've had a few come and go since the last audit. Gone: MIJ Jazzmasters (White and Sunburst) I loved them, but........ One of the Teles (I can't play them anyway) Hallmark 60 Custom Sunburst (Didn't quite bond with it so.........) Added: AVRI Jazzmaster, snuck it home from LA the last time Jack, Mike and I played out there, Beautiful sunburst and very light. MIM Strat (Olympic White....of course) Not sure exactly why I bought it...I do keep trying though. 2010 Memphis Custom Gibson ES-355 Cherry red. Recent custom killer setup, wink wink........ You are right Jake, these are serious guitars. The return of THE 1965 Sunburst Jazzmaster, Woody was so gracious he allowed me to beg it back. Recent killer re-fret, wink wink............. No new amps, Did upgrade the Adat XT-20's last year to an HD-24 hard disk recorder. I need to re-do the family portrait. ed — Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp. Did I mention that I still like big blonde amps? Top

You are right Jake, these are serious guitars. There is a reason mine was first on my list! There is something to be said about added string length behind the bridge and a shallow break angle. Top

One of these days I'm going to submit a "I love gold guard Fender basses" thread and I'll tell the story of the real '57. I've had it for 35+ years. It's history is pretty interesting, at least it might be to another bass player. — Jack Booth (aka WoodyJ) The Mariners (1964-68, 1996-2005), 2025 The Hula Hounds (1996-2000) The X-Rays (1997-2004) The Surge!

stratdancer Joined: Dec 11, 2013 Posts: 2537 Akron, Ohio	Posted on Oct 18 2015 04:46 AM Strats are the biggest part of my collection. Every one of them is different from the other in some way.

Syndicateofsurf Joined: Oct 08, 2014 Posts: 1073 Northern Ohio	Posted on Oct 20 2015 06:35 AM Oh, we're counting basses? Pretty sure that brings me somewhere around 15. 4 Danos, 2 Yamahas, a Harmony Rocket that needs completely rebuilt, a Kay, my Silvertone Strat, some Epiphone Les Paulish copy something something that I never really liked and is on loan to my son, an Alverez acoustic, a junk Fender acoustic, a Gretch Jim Dandy parlour guitar and The Swamp Thing which is some homemade single pup deale-o that I got through SG 101. Seems like I'm forgetting someone. Thought I had 13 + 2 basses... I should get a 12 string or a Bellzouki.
