Yea real insignificant, sitting there with the guitar you won in the RiffRumble, yea ok! :D

Sorry but I'll never sell the Showman, I've owned that amp since I was 12. If I was homeless I'd take the speakers out and live in the cabinet, but I wouldn't sell it ;)

Oh well...can't fault a guy for trying! I've got an '82 Fender Lead II I've had for 23 years that I'll NEVER sell, so I know what that's like.

The Schecter is pretty suh-weet though! :P

I love it. My favorite guitar bar none. The only guitar I didn't have to do a setup job on. Pickups are hot but with real tone and clean up so nicely when you roll back the volume. The tone knob acts like a normal tone knob up til about halfway then it peaks the mids for a half-cocked-wah kinda sound. Never knew I needed that till I had it.

Now they're making a single-coil version of the solidbody. Would love to get my hands on one of those.

Let's see some more gear pictures!

Some nice gear, folks! Les, that's a beautiful play room to jam in!:cool: You're a lucky fellow!
I've been playing for a number of years, but I'm no super guitar wiz. I love to play different kinds of guitars, and I love to tinker with 'em too. A couple years ago my son moved out, and I took over his bedroom. I started consolidating all my music gear that was scattered around the house into this area. I have to move most of it out temporarily so I can give it a good paint job and start decorating. Maybe this summer.
Here's the "studio":

Here's a rundown of the gear:
Guitars:
1935 Dobro Style 37 square neck Hawaiian
1965 Fender Jaguar
1966 Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean
1972 Gibson B-45 12 string acoustic
1979 Fender Stratocaster
1983 Alvarez-Yairi DY-48 acoustic
1987 Hondo II LP copy
1989 Dobro Duolian chromed brass body Hawaiian
2002 Rickenbacker 370-12 string
2004 Fender Muddy Waters Telecaster
2005 Epiphone G-400 Les Paul Custom
2005 Line 6 Variax 300
2006 Eastwood Delta 6 resonator/electric

2008 Epiphone G-400 '66 Reissue
2008 Danelectro Dano 63
2008 Epiphone Dot
2008 Godin 5th Avenue
Bass:
2001 Ibanez AEB-30 acoustic/electric bass
2006 Jay Turser JTB-2B violin bass
2007 SX SJB75C jazz bass
2008 Rogue LX200BF fretless bass
Amps:

2008 Fender G-DEC 30
2008 Marshall MB30 bass amp

I sold my big heavy loud amps since I don't play out much. The smaller amps suit me fine, and I believe the Reverend actually sounds as loud as the Fender Twin I used to have.
:D

Many of us live in microcosms of our own design. For some, it's the bar at the end of the street...

I think I'll take up knitting... New Guy's packin some loot. That is a very impressive line up. If I had all that, I'd never leave the house...Kind of like if I had a P&(*@... Thanks for showing all the goods.

To be sure, I'd rather have that than some fool stock account...

A wise investor!

Pooter I don't know if you saw the Taylor Namm video but they are selling fully loaded swappable pickgaurds no soldering. Genius even if EB used the molex first!
