Yeah, identical to mine except his is backwards.

The gold sticker behind the bridge is a Hallmark sticker that's been on the guitar since right after my friend bought it a couple of years ago. It hasn't offended me yet, so I haven't removed it.

Looking great man

a few weeks ago I was organizing my jpgs and made a folder for guitars I've owned....I found these photos most interesting because I realize that I currently own none of the guitars that I did in 2004 (minus the blue strat which is totaled for all intents and purposes, and the nylon acoustic which is in a pretty beat up state and I've done nothing with.)



from left: Samick IC4, The famed now parpleburst ESP LTD MH100 I sold to BacchusPaul, Samick Valley Arts Strat, Royce LP copy, Samick Valley Arts Strat that I somehow put a tele bridge on (my first guitar, the "stripestore" guitar from the jag-stang days), Epiphone EB-0, Airline/Harmony stratotone, DiGiorgio Estudante classical.

oh man, nick. what color was that stratotone?

It was black with gold metal flake. I miss that guitar, I traded it for my first steel string acoustic...my only reason for letting it go was out of respect for the instrument. It was pristine but it wasn't doing anything for me with the weak neck pickup at the time...didn't have the heart to gouge the pickguard up (at the time I was obviously obsessed with modding guitars sloppily) for a hotter pickup so I sold it.

EDIT: Here's a better pic of it I just found in the uploader

the SCUMBURST collection by Perlmutter:

gratuitous.

my classic vibe (custom? 60's? wtf ever) next to haze's blonde 50's CV with RW 60's CV neck (delicious/Alnico3 vintagez):

None of these guitars have a Season to Risk sticker, until they do they won't pass inspection.

i don't even know what that means, and therefore, do not care.

Complete family Shot: The Baja Tele is currently my only Non-Shortscale Electric. I need to get a Jazzmaster to Round things out.

1995 Standard USA Strat and new Squier Jaguar VM. I hope to modify the Squier. As a complete and utter noob, I'll be picking your brains for help over the coming months.

Beauty.

after looking at this picture, I realized how close our collection is. I have my parts tele I just finished with the 60s CVC body, rosewook neck, and white pg w/ mini bucker, I'm about to finish that jagmaster I got Erik, and the black dot. so, essentially we have three of the same guitars but they're all slightly different.

fuck man i want/need that/a Maverick!!!

...or, should i just chop up my XII...?

Don't murder a XII to get a Maverick? The idea of it makes me sad

You'd better off to sell it and find one or build one.

I have a pickguard from a butchered XII and it was a crime what someone did to that guitar.

they all look like hack jobs . . .


hack that XII up!

that maverick looks very nice

An astonishingly bad picture of my stock '62 AVRI Jazzmaster. I love it to death, even if my small hands make it really hard to play. It just sounds big, especially since I put flatwound 11's on it. Didn't make it any easier to play, of course.

I imagine this will be me last non short-scale guitar, but I don't really think I'll ever need another one when this one is so purdy <3





Surf green is the only green for me.

Love this thing. Never seen another that has yellowed this much.

Is this the Squier J Mascis? Thoughts?!?

It's been a while since I posted any group shots and I've not posted any of my guitars with the wife's. We plan on getting rid of a few soon but then I've been planning on doing that for a long time now and have never got around to it.
