list all your guitars/bass guitars
 
less tedious than going round and taking a picture of all of them and all that mess.
i would like to know what pretty colors they're in as well.
goooooooooo.

Fender Jazzmaster, Candy Apple Red, covered in stickers and shit is taped up. I have plenty of other guitars, but most are trashy no-names of various shapes and sizes.

Crappy Acoustic x2. Fucked Electric x 1. Lot of other, non-rubbish intruments as well, although sadly I'm best at the guitar.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 09.11.2006 05:13 PM

Hondo II Les Paul Custom copy- set neck, black finish, cream trimming, and chrome hardware loaded with 2 open black hums. It is really a great guitar, has a nice bluesy tone.
Hondo Les Paul style: flat top, double cut away, through-neck, cream colored hums, clear finish, chrome hardware, dot inlays, rosewood neck. More modern tone.
Tiesco jaguar rip off- chrome pick guard, plastic saddles, weird tremolo system, cream colored single coils, rosewood neck, block inlays, sunburst, rhythm and lead circuitry- sounds really treble heavy, can get great trashy tones from SY to JAMC to Big Black
Kay hollowbody- no f-holes, wooden saddles with trapeze bridge, chrome pickguard with a checker pattern, sunburst, 1 pick up on the neck, kelvinater headstock, and maple neck.
Oscar Schmidt es-335 copy- has been repainted about 3 or 4 times. Currently has a gold to bronze burst. Sounds like fucking ass. I should trash it.
Random japanese bass- archtop, f-holes, sunburst, microphonic pickups, sounds sweet

There are 3 or so acoustics around my house, none of which are worth anytime describing.

TheDom 09.11.2006 05:15 PM

Fender Jaguar
Yamaha Pacifica

an a no-name acoustic in some tuning I don't even know.

those are all of the ones that i bought or that were given to me as a gift (i BEGGED my dad for the venus when i first started playing). the person i am moving with (who shall remained unnamed) also has quite an unnecessary arsenal of guitars which we share.
i almost bought a duosonic saturday but i thought better of it.

Don't I know it!
I have used that Appalachian dulcimer on almost every record I have made.
A fitting tribute to my deceased Granddad, I'd say.

thewall91 09.11.2006 10:12 PM

here i am with my other one, lookin' like somethin' from a RATT video circa '87:
 

nomadicfollower 09.11.2006 10:13 PM

A, uhhmm, Washburn guitar. Don't know any specifics and don't particurally care to. It's horrible, the input is coming loss (creating a nice crackling sound) , the tuners hardly stay in (it of course doesn't stay in tune). I despise the thing for all I'm worth, but it's all I've got, and it keeps me coming back.

Everyneurotic 09.11.2006 10:14 PM

no name nylon string acoustic purchased on the street
ibanez rg270 black and stickered
ibanez silver cadet black and stickered

i sometimes feel like i need more guitars, but since i'm not gigging regularly i don't see the point, except that guitars are the shit! what i really need is a new amp.

i always thought that a faded-finish b.c. rich would be the coolest looking guitar one could imagine. b.c. rich basses are cooler than guitars, in my opinion.

the mustang's a piece of shit, it doesn't stay in tune.

i've been wanting to buy a classical style acoustic guitar for quite some time but i am much too poor.

nomadicfollower 09.13.2006 05:47 PM

hat and beard, are you the guy who posted (on the old board maybe) pics of all these guitars you made or modified?

hat and beard 09.13.2006 05:58 PM

perhaps. that's the only "guitar" i've ever built, but i used to make strange guitar like contraptions with weed wacker strings and contact mics. i think i might have posted a few pictures of those.

youthoftomorrow 09.13.2006 06:50 PM

Squier Stratocaster, purple with yellowing pickguard, i put a humbucker in the bridge, but it doesn't sound very good.

Peavey Milestone III bass, blue with a white pickguard, sorta like a pointy P bass but with J bass pickups.
