So where is the one you brought with you to Cozy???

it's one of the ones not on a stand...

Gar - you seem to have a thing for Fender's...those are Strat's, right? I always get Strats and Telecasters mixed up...though I do see one that looks like a Gibson back there

let's ride!!

Well Kim...You know your guitars.......The first difference in a Strat and a tele is a strat has the double cutaway and a tele a single cutaway. There is a couple of Fenders in there but mostly "vintage Ibanez's" I like the Ibanez 70's and early 80's "lawsuit" models. I think they are better than Fenders and with a little work are great guitars and a medicaly impaired one can be had for a song (pun intended) I am not a real big Gibson fan...The yellow Les Paul custom looking thing is actually a cheap "Jay Turser" made in China. Amazing what they can do there and sell them for here. Of course the wiring and other electronics stink but the body and neck are very, very good so all you have to do is rip all the guts out and build it up like you like it. If you had a Gibson like that you wouldnt want to custom it up for value reasons.....The red guitar I built from the ground up. I had a couple more I built but they have moved into homes of some of best friends and and see a lot of work. If I'm not building a guitar I am usually making the rounds looking for a structuraly intact beater with potential.

Lets ride!

I have an Ibanez signed by 3 Doors Down 5 years ago or so, I wonder how much I can eBay it for (if I actually did eBay, too damn confusing).

Although I love my bike....I had one other thing I wanted to share.It is much closer to my heart as it was and is many years in the making. Many I salvaged. Some I made and all I put at least the finishing touches paint, electronics, fretwork etc.

Dang dude --- You have me beat! :birthday: :teeth: :2cool:

For a minute there I thought you meant you only need 1 love (male or female) in your life, then I relaized you were talking about guitars, hehehe.

Here is my mid-lifecrisis/post divorce toy.....

I used to have a Z3, but part of the cost of the divorce was the car. My choice was to make car payments or pay bills. it was a tough choice but... the Z3 will be back in a couple of years!!!

my 2.3 litre supercharged SLK with 5 speed auto tranny is still faster, and the power hardtop is a lot better for rigidity in a convertable....and the Michelin Pilots are a better ZR rated tire...gives new meaning to *see ya* ...just gotta love Mercedes, heck all German engineering
