Nice pieces! I've put together a few guitars, but really most of my work has been in restoration of 60's-80's Fenders and Gibsons. Binding, electronics, smoothing out finishes, fret work, etc. My latest is an L5 that was beat to hell and needs some TLC -- just need to find time for her!

I used to have a collection of about 30, but an ex girlfriend years ago made me get rid of most of them -- now the stables just house 8 of my favorites.

My small guitars collection currently stands at number 27

I'm a sucker for white Strats / Blonde Teles

The black Gilmour relic Strat was my latest acquisition.

I'll post more of them together with my watches.

Thanks rotador and long live rock n roll!
I just finished setting up this baby today with Bigsby trem. She's so beautiful to look at and really got that rockabilly vibe. I think I fall in love again.

Nice strats stray! Damn! I just built another one. What do you guys think?

It's a 93 American standard body that I got off eBay that was beat to shit, I stripped it down and went for for a natural dark finish. Threw a set of big dippers in it and a harness from Lost-tone EBAY store - that guy is amazing at building harnesses. Thing sounds great!



Here is what I just finished working on also. I dumped my pedal train and built this board to match the house flooring. I haven't gigged in years so my board doesn't move anymore.

Nice to see some guitar players here! Watches, guitars, guns. We are a certain breed that's for sure!

Rock on!

And to stay on topic, does the coffee table count?

That's a cool Strat. Loving the wooden pickguard and I'm sure she sounds great with the dippers. I had a JM strat with the dippers and it was one of my favourites.I haven't gigged in years as well... Family .... Full time job.... the list goes on....
