Obviously there's a lot of turnover, but do you have any that you absolutely won't get rid of?

Probably just the cheap acoustic on the left in the photo below. My son gave it to me for my birthday in 2004 so that is why I have kept it so long.
The funny thing is I gave him that Epi SG for his birthday and a couple of weeks later he sold it back to me for $100.

Thanks,that is an Alden Zemaitis copy.
I don't have the Penguin anymore.Cool guitar,I bought it from was Mitch Easter.
I won it on ebay and when I found out the seller was Mitch Easter I told him I was a big "Let's Active" fan.
He's a really nice guy.He put a copy of his new(at the time) CD in the box with the guitar.

That's a really beautiful copy, who made it?
Is there any guitar that you really, really want or have you had everything you've ever wanted?

hey, not trying to jump on you to much here but could you please refrain from posting quotes of huge posts of pictures? you're a new poster so it's ok that you didn't know but it's something we try not to do on this forum. if you want to talk about a specific picture, quoting it is fine. but quoting massive picture bombs for a short general comment is just a teensy bit obnoxious.

I was going to say this, I mean it doesn't bother me too much as my internet is pretty quick but for some people it just makes the page take even longer to load.

What guitars stuck around the longest, even if you don't have them now?
Do you generally do all right with them? I tend to break about even, not counting my free labor. I like the constant flow but I do get overwhelmed and burned out sometimes, but that often includes disassembly, painting, and hunting down parts. It's a kick in the nuts to put something back together and have it fail to deliver.
