Hey Guys,

I flew out to visit one of my oldest best friends on Monday night and had the pleasure of playing some music through some of the most coveted original vintage guitars and amps ever made.

Played a killer 1958 Gibson Les Paul Custom through a 1966 Marshall JTM45 and 8/10 matching cab cranked to "10" most of the night. Wow, what a tone!

Also played a 1957 Fender Stratocaster and a 1963 Fender Telecaster Custom and couple of Les Paul Specials and a very very good 59 Les Paul Junior and well as a pile more. (He has 2 1959 Sunburst Les Pauls there but I didnt play those this time).

I wont mention his name as he is a private guy but his collection is mind boggling and his playing is so tonefull and tasty it was allot of fun.

Here are few crappy iphone pics of some of his amps in his living room, this is just the tip of the iceberg. The jam room housed even more... (These are all original and some of the best ever made).

I have seen pics of some guy's monster collection of fender amps, I dont know if this is the same guy but it does look close to what I saw. I THINK he had his on shelves though, can't remember.

Crazy collection.
 
amateur.

:lol: :LOL:

that stack of Fender heads is fucking hillarious :rock: :rock: :rock:
 
:shocked: Holy crap!

Just in case he's wondering... I'm still up for adoption!
 
I just don't get hoarding that many amps, especially when they are so similar. But, I guess to each his own.

Last couple of years those amps were a better nestegg than my 401k, that is for sure.

Just a hobby, some collect stamps and some collect amps.

How is it jealousy? Great amp collection, but like I said, I just don't understand having so many of the same thing.

Come on Brad, you were at the Fender factory. :lol: :LOL:

That is friggin' amazing! I literally think some guys on TGP would have one of those over 4 hours need to see a doctor moments seeing that pic. Very cool.

joke of the day - Fender called, they want their amps back. :lol: :LOL:

Floor-to-ceiling amps definitely look better than most wallpaper patterns...
 
"My Buddy's..."? C'mon, we are not falling for that. I suspect this is a spare bedroom in Brad's house.
