My original 1974 Stratocaster. The only other
one with this color scheme that I've seen was being played by Nils Lofgren
on the Neil Young in Berlin DVD. When I had it appraised, I was told
that it's a rare guitar but I just thought no one else liked the crappy
color. <g> |
 |
My 60's re-issue Stratocaster. Apparently it
has "over-wound" pickups on it because they pick up extremely
well and tend to sound very hot. |
 |
This is my DeArmond M77T (with the firebird bridge
pickup) that looks
and sounds a lot like the Gretsch 6128T but is about half the price.
You can see necks and part of the bodies of my Squier Telecaster in the
back on the right and my '70's Strat on the left. |
 |
This is the Squier Telecaster. You probably
can't tell from the photo but the entire guitar body and neck (except the
fretboard) are the same blue sparkle that you can see - although it's a
lot lighter than it looks. If I were able to get rid of any of my
guitars, this would be the one. The neck on it it is about a quarter
inch narrower than all of my other guitars, making it difficult to play
near the pegboard. The humbucker pickups definitely sound good
though. |
 |
Here's (from bottom to top), my Sunn 412 speaker
cabinet, Fender 100 watt Twin Amp Pro, and the Marshall PowerBrake - which
I don't need now that I've moved into my house. |
 |
This is my Sunn 215 speaker cabinet - two fifteen
inch speakers that really help to fill in the low frequencies. |
 |
The speaker covers off of the 412 and amplifier,
showing all six of the 12 inch speakers. |
 |
The Leslie cabinet looks a bit rough but, it
was well used by my brother when he was playing keyboards professionally. |
 |
Here's a new addition - a Peavey PA system that I'm
having quite a bit of fun setting up. On top of it is my DigiTech
digital sound processor. With the help of a good friend who plays
guitar professionally in various bands in the local area, I recently
figured out how to use the damn thing. |
 |
Another new addition - a Roland Jazz Chorus 120
amplifier. This, the PA system, and the Leslie were sitting unused
at my brother's house so he loaned them to me. Bad part is, most of
the rheostats have rust in 'em but, with tuner cleaner, it should be easy
to fix. I thank my brother for adding an additional 467 watts of
power to my wall o' sound. |
