Hey Everyone,
Well, the other day I cleaned up my room and got everything spruced up for some company that we were having and I got to thinking that I've never really taken pictures of my guitars. So I got out the wife's digital cam and grabbed a few shots. She says that I'm getting carried away, but really I think she is kind of glad I have this passion instead of drinking and watching too much TV. Oh well, as I get older and richer, I guess I might not be getting wiser.But I don't think I'll can ever stop getting a new one every few years.
A man can never have too many guitars ... and pairs of sunglasses I guess
...
Here's a few picks that I thought I'd share with all my friends at GMC who might understand these things.
Enjoy...
Here's my new baby. The nearfields are awesome. Very versatile, but not quite as versatile as the Custom 24. Working with my amp now to get the best tones I can from this beauty...

You guys have seen this one a zillion times, but this photo shows off the color and the brazilian rosewood...
This one is a 2006. I can't believe I've had it four years already...

Everyone loves a Les Paul. I got this one in 1990. I really haven't played much (crazy huh?) I kind of favored my Ibanez for years even when I first got him so he didn't get much attention. He's a beast though. A monster. Everytime I plug him, I get my butt kicked with the fattest tones in the western hemisphere.

Here's a pretty good shot of all my electrics. The Ibanez on the right I got in 1987 right after Joe came out with "Surfing with the Alien". It's a 540 model and the one Joe sponsored before Ibanez made the first JS model. I love this guitar. Probably cause it goes back the farthest. It definately has more stage time than all the others. Finally, on the left in this shot is my Strat. It's definately growing on me. You guys may remember that I did the paint job my self. You can tell, I shouldn't quit my day job just yet to become a Luthier.
It was a good concept, but the execution wasn't perfect. I think I'm already wearing through the nitro, you can see where the "cloudburst" is a little ragged. I might re-do it someday when I get bored (like that's ever going to happen).

Check out the maple flame on the headstock of the new SAS. It really lights up nice. This isn't even the greatest picture and you can tell how awesome it is. The back of the neck is just as nice. Gonna have to do some SRV sounding stuff and maybe even Laslo's new "Modern Blues" might be a lesson well suited for this guitar...
