So I wanted to post some pics of my gear

My baby is a '71 Thinline Reissue, I love her to death...

My first guitar ever was a '96 Olympic White MIM Strat, it's got Gold Lace's, the Clapton Pre-amp mod, TBX tone control, and Buddy Guy spec hardware and setup... its amazing

The sunburst strat is a Squier standard that I bought for $15 bucks and fixed up. It has GFS Boston Blues, all Gold American hardware, complete re-wire. Setup is high and strings are thick, SRV style.

The midnight wine tele is a '91 I got from Guitar Center on accident (went for a cheap squier tele, walked out with this one). Its previous owner added locking tuners (ugggh), some smoke black hardware, and a gorgeous DIY pearl pickguard, but is waiting for some Custom Shop 52's to be complete.

The acoustic is the cheapest Takamine that I could find. Carl made me buy a beater acoustic to strengthen the chops and well this is her.

The SG is the current project. It's being re-painted Gibson Cherry, some PAF pickups, and a re-fret. Saved her life from a guy who was gonna trash it on craigslist.

My Vox is a AD30vt with a JJ 12ax7 tube, and a Celestion G10 speaker and the Johnson is a pure tube, all been replaced, and a Emininece Redcoat.

Pedals include a Blues Driver, tuner, distortion, overdrive, and a Beheringer reverb that I got with the Johnson for free.

Kick ass guitars, That first blond thin line caught my eye, (don't tell anyone but i think i might have been drooling).  Nice collection.  Looks like your working on an SG is that a repair or a build from scratch?

You shoulda seen Carl's face when I walked in his office day 1 with her. I only wish the pictures could do her justice.

Its a re-build. A guy in Knoxville traded it for a Fender Twin and the guy who took it wanted to re-paint it. He tried to sand it down not realizing the finish that was on it. He gave up and wanted to trash it so he ripped all the guts out of it and I took the body off his hands.

@Josh,
Agreed with Marc (where's my bib?) LOL. You know you shouldn't store all those beauties in one place (in case of natural disaster or something) so maybe you could send a few up here and I'll keep an eye on them for ya! haha Very nice gear. (Someone is a Fender Fan)

I love Fender, I mean the tele is just gorgeous, and Carl will complain on this one, but I really like the Strat look as well   Grin

The SG is my first in that realm, I hate the necks but this one fell into my lap....

These guitars are my life insurance, if a storm comes I'll save their lives before anything else!
