Cool guitars !!
Keep em coming !!!
Even though I've never been a les Paul guy ,
I have always wanted a white les Paul custom I think that is next on my list !!
 
Fender Stratocaster.

I thought it was a Les Paul Custom. Had the Custom for 8 months, sold it and bought two Stratocasters (upgraded all the electronics), re-tubed my Triple Rec ($$$) and bought a boost with the funds. :thumbsup:

Always wanted a single pickup Rhoads but the RR24s never quite did it enough for me. Same for the Kevin Bond (though I'd looooove one now). Found this one one day on ebay and knew I had to have it. Threw a Warpig in it and stuck a V for Vendetta sticker on it and my life was complete for a while. (Ah GAS. You are a cruel mistress.)
 
I'm big fan of Randy Rhoads so I always wanted a Jackson Pinstripe LTD but never got one and probably never get one. I have a hard time getting along with odd shapes. I've had a few RR1's and a JCF-01 Rhoads but I never kept them. I'm only 5'9" and they feel like toys designed for people under 5'2' 105 lbs...feels like I'm playing a bodiless paddle guitar LOL.

I always liked Randy's 57 3 PU LPC Black Beauty as a kid but hated LP's up until about 2012 after 30 years when I decided to give them another whirl...love em now so my second LP ever is a 3 pickup 57 RI BB.

Any guitar I have I either bought or built it because I wanted it ;) I still have an ass load of super strats but LP's are what I'm playing 98% of the time. My next one will either be a R8 in Tobacco or a R6 BB LPC with p-90's.

Trad +, BB7, R7

Jackson KE1. #2 in the first pic. It's my best Jackson to date, in the way it feels in my hands. Don't mind seeing it's value steadily rising either.


As for amps, my Diezel Herbert and Fortin Bones.

First time I heard and saw a Herbert, my jaw dropped. Knew I had to have one. Took me a while, during that time of my life, to save up $3k to buy an used Herbert.

Fortin Bones, always wanted a Fortin Bones or Natas. Just couldn't seem to score one forever. Finally did.
 
In no particular order these were ones I wanted and later owned. Most have moved on:

Vintage Dan Armstrong
Vintage Tele Deluxe (still have)
90's Strat Plus
MIJ Jazzmaster
Voodoo SG (arriving tomorrow)
 
I've got a Ken Lawrence Explorer being built currently!
 
I don't have a pic but it was the MM van halen guitar...saw one in college in 94 and had one like 4 years later...

Steve here is my voyager !!
I could not get a new pic to load ?
Kept saying file is too big ?
 
A custom shop Jackson. I ended up finding a Jackson custom shop Warrior at southpaw guitars 7-8 years ago.
 
Wanted this as a kid but couldn't afford it. I was finally able to find one and since its kind of a collectors item I paid three times what it retailed for in 1998. Easily one of the coolest guitars ever made. Totally worth it I felt like crying when I opened the case lol. Beastly ESP jh2 hetfield explorer :rock:

This one, made for Dan Spitz (ex-Anthrax). When I first got internet access in the late 90s, it was on the Jackson website and at that time it was owned by a major Jackson collector. He knew I was super interested so when the time came for him to move it, it came to me...

For anyone who cares about Anthrax, it's the guitar he plays in the Married With Children Episode, and on the Live Noize concert video.

Awesome. Was it damaged when he took out that lamp? You get it from Bret?
