Your guitar

My main axe is a Yamaha classical.  Old and beat up by me. Not intentional, sh*t happens.  I'll post a pic later.  One if the things I had to get out as the house was being flooded.  I carried it over the bridge and across the waters before I rescued the cat.  My electric is a Jackson Performer Floyd Rose tremelo.  I put on top of the cube freezer in the utility room and it didn't get soaked.

Yes, that's a Mesa/Boogie amp.  Thing cost me an arm and a leg, but was worth it. Right now, I'm really lusting after two guitars.  The Loar LH-200 small body acoustic: and Hagstrom Viking: I need a job.

Nice ESP!!!

And VERY nice Hagstrom!!! I love these type of guitars

A cheap strat copy of an unknown manufacturer. I hit it and it makes a sound. 

A vintage Yamaha FG 420



...and cheap but lovely classical Aria.




I have an electric bass and a plethora of synths, but I never had an electric guitar.

I'm not sure why I'm not able to post a higher resolution pic through this service (Photobucket), either they want money or it could be me.
Anyway on the left we have the monitor and plastic desk that used to reside in the library room.  The CPU (off camera) was in the music room.  You can still seed flood mud stains on the desk.  I did my best to clean it up but it's not easy.  The amp is new.  MY oldest surviving acoustic guitar is in front.  Yeah I play a classical guitar with a pick, sue me.    Behind the head of the acoustic is a sequencer that I am still trying to figure out how to use.  I can do some basic stuff with it, but you really have to spend some time to learn how to make it do what you want it to do.  The keyboard is a flood survivor.  Barely made it.  One corner got some water.  The onboard patches were a bit scrambled.  The patches on the memory card are totally fine.  Weird.

The effects box on the floor is a a replacement.  I like it a lot.  My last was a Zoom and quite fun, but I never had a pedal.  I really haven't done much with that.  Being in an apartment now you really don't want to annoy the neighbors too much.  Moving on along is the Jackson.  I really love the Flyod Rose.  Once in tune the thing stays in tune for just about forever.  The first time I tried to tune it I hadn't been told that you have to do the strings in a certain order or the bridge will keep rising up kind of like a cat does when getting a nice back stroke.  Off to the right is the latest computer which replaces one that died a few months ago, not flood related.  I shut everything possible off as the waters were coming in.  The box to the right is what the replacement home theater system came in.  Makes a really good temporary table.

My guitar is a unique Morten Faye #1, a classical guitar handmade especially for me. She’s a beauty, but sadly I am unably to post pictures. However, you can hear the sound here (wait until the vocal part):

She’s made of rosewood and ebony — and spruce, I think.

I don’t really play the electric guitar, but I used to have a Washburn. A friend of mine borrowed it. Then he sold it, I think. Then he died (I didn’t know he was a junkie, or at least experimenting with substances far more dangerous than cannabis).

I also have a knockoff Strat.

I'm buying a ESP F250 from a friend for about $300.  It's a great metal guitar, and it has a Floyd Rose licensed tremolo bridge.

For the other clef, I have an Ibanez EDA-905 fretless bass, as well as an unbranded startup bass.

Nice, Tarquin; I wish I could afford a Mark V.  Alas, my F-50 is considerably cheaper (by Mesa standards)

I also use Jazz III picks, it's gotten to the point where I can't tolerate anything else in my hand

Are your acoustic guitars shy or something?
