No picture, but my baby is a 1977 Gibson RD Artist. It looks like a melted Explorer (ugly as hell) with a 9 volt in the back for the active electronics.

Ibanez Saber with EMG active pickups.

Fender Stratocaster (American) completely scalloped fretboard.

buffto 05-24-2003 05:45 PM

gibson SG with these crescent fretboard insets. it's wood with a red finish.

Acoustic: 1929 Martin 0-18. It's a 12 fret slothead with a 1 7/8" pretty cool.

Electric: 1959 Gibson ES-335 Historic Collection in sunburst. I love how these guitars look.

Guitar I don't have: Stromberg Master 400 http://www.gruhn.com/features/stromberg/AR3527ang.jpg

looks like a mosrite -- I always wanted one of those. Right now all I have is an 80's american standard tele, and a 1972 Guild s-bo2 bass(??). I have had (at one time or another) a Strat, Jaguar, and a mustang...

Acoustic: 1994 Fender Gemini VII w/ All White body and slight-V style leck... great tone

Electric: 1979 Fender Stratocaster, black body with birdseye maple neck and Floyd-rose trem, added a Roland GK-2A Hex pickup for my VG-8 Effects Processor (these things seriously kick ass!)

My baby is a sunburst 1971 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe. Every single person I let play it( and that's not very many) says it's a magic guitar then offer (beg) to buy it.No deal.

I loved my yellow stratocaster, I'd like to get an ovation acoustic 6-string or another strat. Or maybe an SG. Or maybe a Les Paul studio (black).

This one isn't mine but it was built by a good friend of mine who does custom guitars and basses (Chris Benavente of Benavente Guitars). The craftsmanship and sound of these instruments puts a PRS to shame.

that benavente is very nice. any other info on them or should i just google?

gibber71 05-26-2003 05:44 PM

Looks nice and the neck looks very inviting.I can't play a Strat cuz I have long fingers. That's why I like Gibson's. This guitar is nice,..is there a website?

Maxarian 05-26-2003 10:18 PM

I have a 67 Fender Jazzmaster. It has the sweetest sound, but it makes a loud buzzing noise.
I have a Kramer Flying V with a Floyd Rose that my buddy built for me when he worked for Kramer.
I have a Hamer Sunburst. It was cheap, but sounds amazing.
I have an Ibanez nylon string acoustic.
I also have a 300$ gift certificate to Guitar Center and I don't know what to get.
Any suggestions?

My best guitar is named Djum-boo. Long story. Anyway, it's basically a POS $200 Ibanez RX170. But OMFUG, you might say, scrathing your head, you own 5 other guitars all of which are regarded as better and more expensive! True, but hear my tale....

One time, about 8 years ago, I was adjusting the height of the pickups on said Ibanez. I raised one too high, and one of the tiny springs in the mechanism popped out, vanishing into the black hole of high pile carpet. :) So naturally, I was pissed... I ha donly owned this guitar 2 or three weeks, and didn't have much money (I was 16, I think) so this guitar was a huge step up from my shitty red harmony guitar. So I plugged it in to see how bad it sounded, thoughts of tryign to get one of those springs hurting my brain (I grew up in a very rural area, and always had to order my shit from AMS or musicians friend). Lo and behold, it ROCKED. To this day, I have never played a better sounding guitar, and NO ONE is allowed to touch this instrument. Strange but true. Sadly,
I have no picture of it, but it's color is deep blue/purple.... not that you can see it, because it's literally covered in stickers. And the nerd in me insisted I replace the fret markers with little Tux the Penguin stickers.
