Jellyfish Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 Decided to have a little photo-shoot (mainly to help the sale along!)
Andyjr1515 Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Home design, home build. Back is mahogany, top is Yew. Neck is a 'restyled headstock' (OK - sawn-off ) strat 'v' profile. Bareknuckle pups with SD switch options in the Pup rings and optional mid coil through a push-push tone. Lovely to play and can sound from acoustic to hard rock. Andy

Wil Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Picked this up at the weekend. Gretsch 5135 Corvette. Loving the Bigsby, far prefer it to the trem on my strat (which I ended up blocking due to tuning stability issues). Seems very stable and it feels great to use, lovely and smooth/controllable. Bridge pickup is stonking, not sure about the neck, seems a bit muddy but I havent used it in anger at rehearsal yet so we'll see.

4000 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1325796168' post='1488004'] Let me kick off this new forum with a thread dedicated to all the wonderful guitars owned by Basschat members. And to start in true BRX style here's my most recent 6-string acquisition - the Hallmark Wing-Bat: Based on the Hallmark Swept Wing design and endorsed by George Bariss of 60s Batmobile fame (amongst others), this is a limited edition of 100. [/quote] I need one!

GarethFlatlands Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) Very rough and ready shot of my 2 main guitars, a Gordon Smith semi-hollow Gypsy bought from a fellow BC'er and an MIJ Jazzmaster dating from (I think) 1998 from the serial number. The pickups were dire so I replaced them with a pair of MOJO pickups '58 replicas and now it sounds great. The chrome knobs are also something I added as the original plastic ones were getting pretty filthy. It's also got a Mustang bridge as the original JM bridge is just ridiculous. I like the Gordon Smith as it's very easy to play but there's just something about it that hasn't quite clicked with me so I'm in 2 minds about whether to keep it.

TheRockinRoadie Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 I've just bought a Limited Edition PRS SE Custom 24 Quilt Top for my 21st Birthday. I tried out lots of guitars & basses, but nothing compared to this!

TheRockinRoadie Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Cheers! I'm going to take some better pictures at some point - It looks so awesome in person, but I cant seem to capture that on film, so to speak!
RichValentine Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) 2008 Gibson Les Paul Standard in Cherry Burst. This was taken the first day I got it a few years ago. Had always wanted one and well worth the wait! If only I was good enough to justify it! Edited June 10, 2013 by RichValentine
ezbass Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 I'm not sure this qualifies a porn, but I think it's pretty and it did stop me mid Telecaster purchase. I've had it about 10 days now and have got it set up just right for me. [IMG]http://i308.photobucket.com/albums/kk344/ezbass/CortM520_zps0da034c3.jpg[/IMG] Having been inspired to play a bit more 6 string I've resurrected my DIY build, 15 watt amp (needed some rewiring as it was mute after years of living in the loft) and the 2 go together really nicely. Now I'm inspired to build a high spec overdrive pedal and I now have one on order.
waynepunkdude Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Just got this today, will get more pics later.
waynepunkdude Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Mate, it is as new, plastic still on the plate and pick ups
dave_bass5 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Not mine, but my guitarists. Its a Strat, its old and tatty, and its back to front........a bit like him.

It reminds me of The Fender Esprit model that Robben Ford used to use, its tone isn't a million miles away from that guitar either; if only I had Mr Ford's formidable talent to go with it
merello Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Charvel Desolation FR Butter-like neck but too hot a guitar for my clunky strumming. Kept 'keeping it for a better day' until I realised I was a Fender ching-chang man. Sold to eat into a CC debt. Fender American Stratocaster 1991. Traded a Tele for this and it has a really good neck. That being said, wish I had a tele as I keep clunking off the sweet spot above the middle pick up!
martin8708 Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) [attachment=138633:Burt + Cruise + Santa Cruz 043.jpg]My most recent purchase ,a Santa Cruz 1927, 000 model acoustic guitar . Always played Ovations , so I thought I would have a stab at a normal acoustic , pretty good so far . Edited July 8, 2013 by martin8708
