CAMM guitarists? or any other instruments for that matter....

Well i guess i have become somewhat of a guitar collector as well as a player..... Is 7 guitars too many? Heres a quick shot of my bedroom....

I play with my cock, does that count????

No... Playing your skin flute doesnt count....

I had 3. Gave my acoustic to my friend. Now I have a shitty Johnson electric I play and a signed Dave Mustaine dean signature flying V that I don't touch.

Nice..... Pics of what you have?

Mine are of varying from total cheapo shit to worth fucktons...LOL we shall start with the fucktons... Left most guitar on the wall (not the banjo... Thats just a pos cheapo) is my pride and joy, custom built by myself martin d28... I have over 135 hrs into the build and tweaks that i uave done to that guitar... Next to that is a 80s sigma dm3, then the shittiest guitar i own (by price only, plays very well and has decent tone...i also added electronics to it, ibanez ijv50, then my harmony sovriegn, a cheapo rogue mandolin and an old korean made victoria x37.

On the couch is my other pride and joy on the left, a mid to late sixties conrad es330. Bought that one off ebay with a bunch of issues, fixed it up and converted it to p90s, now worth 5-10x what i paid for it... And my ibanez electric... Not great but not bad either....

Oh and if anyone wants to give away a guitar my arms are more than open to accept it....

I play a little but pretty much suck. I have an old kramer guitar, not sure of the model but I was told it was halfway decent.

i did a little dabbling with the guitar, but I dont have one and was never very good at it. I was however a Trumpet Player for nearly 15 years back during my school days. I have 3 trumpets, one is really cool called a "Pocket Trumpet", which is just a standard trumpet rolled around a bunch more times to make it look smaller... just a little larger than my hand...

still not as cool as the one i picked up back in december....LOL its from the 1870s...



I did 99% of the restoration work on it as well.... I also have a top of the line Blessing, a piccolo trumpet, and a helmke silver baritone... Been playing since 4th grade, and have been gigging with a singing group for about 4 years now...

My workhorse is a Fender 50th Anniversary Lonestar Strat (USA).


I also have a Fender Toronado, Seagull Acoustic and a Squire P-Bass that don't get played much.

For recording I play through a Stephenson Custom 20 head and an Avatar Vintage 2x12 loaded with Alnico Blues. For shows I play through a Marshall JCM 900 2X12 combo.

And then there are the pedals...but I won't go into that unless provoked

Hear my rig @ www.mismeasure.com

personally I don't think you can ever have too many guitars..but finding the time to play them all could be difficult

^ very nice!


I wanna here all you guys play even Joey who sucks. We have to guitars in the house, they are Matt's. They live in their cases. I have always wanted to learn to play though so I guess I have that option now.

I took 6 years of piano, the only time I ever get to play now is when I am visiting my parents back in Florida, and you all know how often that happens.

Well you wanna hear? LOL here ya go....

As long as you make beautiful music I'd say yes, although I can't imagine it making much of any sound unless you're using both hands and the two sets of tweezers hit each other.

ZING!

ok... so i been busy with my guits lately...LOL that blue one, no longer blue... did a total refinish/veneer with highly figured walnut.... how it sits right now on my workbench.... almost done with the bindings on it....only took 9 hrs of labor to get them bindings in....LOL still filling a few small imperfections, then need to level out the bindings with the side of the guitar....

also added another trumpet to the collection... a 1930s Elkhart Bandmaster Artist series... needed a little work but all in all, a great find... plays like a dream, and has an awesome sound to it... all much thicker metal than the currently made horns, so it has a bit of a darker tone to it... i have to go to my buddies house and grab the cd he has waiting for me of the concert i played it at in june, and will eventually upload a sound clip of one (or all) of my solos....LOL




next to my workhorse Blessing ML1S.... you can see the way horns have changed over the past 80 yrs....



and a nice shot of the engraving on the bell...



and yes, that is supposed to be a matte finish... that was part of the artist series... one of the first factory bead blasted finishes ever used....

Nice collection Kent! I had a Strat and loved it. Aside from that I know how to play the piano and I'm picking up the harmonica right now. Though looking at some acoustics you have makes me want to get one again and play both the guitar and harmonica...one man band status.

Haha i used to rock harmonica, but havent in a while.... I also added a jet black dean vendetta to the fold, not sure whatd gonna happen with that yet, if its gonna be used for parts or if its gonna get a new body in a frankenstein sort of way and be a very interesting 24fret guitar.... Gotra think on the possibilities for that....
