    Pride and Joy

    I have a few pride an joy guitars. This may be #1 for looks, maybe # 3 for collect-ability, maybe # 1 for playability.

    the 12th Johnny A Custom ever built in this production run, built by Gibson Custom Shop Memphis TN, and it's mine, all mine... :twisted: (Note, there was a production run in the early 2000 years) This run was in 2015.

    Bigsby Tremole, double cut away. 57 Classic Pickups I think is right... I love this guitar. My Grandfather's name was John A, my Dad Johnny. That makes it that much more special to me. Real mother of pearl inlay in head stock and frets.

    Faided Cherry Burst, Fender Scale length, hollow body guitar, about the size of a Les Paul.

      Thank you Dan, screamin guitars. Just love them. They have me pondering whether I need to keep all I have. But no point getting in a hurry selling down. Just enjoy them for now...

          Oh yeah, Johnny A is a Jazz specialist out of Boston. It has pure tones when ran through a very pure amp at reasonable volumes. Very nice. I'll record some clean tones soon.

            Nephew, grandkids, and guitars...

            I had an unusual discussion with one of my nephews the other day, after he asked just how many guitars I have, and why....

            I sort of deflected at first, just said, "Well, I probably have more guitars than you have underpants..." -- which of course, he viewed as rather improbable....

            Another post here in the Guide reminded me of a CD I have that I've enjoyed for years, but most people would never have heard of. I went to a big concert at the famous Red Rocks ampitheater in Denver, Colorado the summer of 1992 (right before my senior year of high school) that had about 6 excellent...

            Guitar amp cab idea with 2 leftover RS-180
            by oneplustwo
            Hi folks,

            Getting back into electric guitars after a long hiatus and thought I would build my own amp/speaker cabinet now that I have this other hobby to leverage. I may end up getting one of those iRig/Apogee Jam interfaces as a sort of "pre-amp" and then feed either a dedicated...

            David Gilmore guitar auction
            by Lex
            His so called famous strat from Dark Side of the Moon and more is supposed to have been played with a particular Fender Stratacaster. He even had to buy the case separate for 175,000!

            For Gilmore, it was all for charity, he said he never was one much for collecting guitars. But who knows,...
