I know there aren't many guitar players here but I'll throw this one out there!

Mutant Racer · 03-27-2015, 07:23 PM

This was a custom order from Suhr and took 6 months to build. Been playing for 30 years and getting a guitar like this is a dream come true. This is what I do when I can't drive my ZL1 or ride my Harley. I hope you guys like the pics.

It's a Suhr Modern Waterfall Burl Maple Blue Denim Slate

For the hell of it some family pics.

Beautiful. Four bolts in the neck but no plate. Interesting. Keystock down as a nod to Hendrix?

How many positions for the pickups, and what type?

Quicksilver-SS · 03-27-2015, 08:19 PM

Beautiful guitar!! Here are a few of mine.........

A few have been added since these pics were taken. Nice collection you have.

Rico · 03-27-2015, 08:21 PM

I have a couple guitars, but I'm not very good. I'm better at playing the drums. That's a beautiful guitar!

pickwithaustin · 03-27-2015, 08:39 PM

There's probably more than a few of us in here.

Nice wood on that guitar! I love exotics.

I've been playing since the late 1960's. A bit of a collector of guitars. My username here is also the name of the guitar charity that I founded in 2010.

I'm not sure if it's a nod to Jimi but the pups are Suhr SSV Humbucker (n), SSH+ Humbucker (b) with a 5-way mega blade switch so lots of versatility. I would describe the pickups as cabable of handling everything from blues to metal with little problems. Since mine has a Mahogany body and neck they do tonnes dark and smooth with ease. They are currently my favorite pups.

Suhr really seems to be on top of their game right now.

This is one of my recent favorites they did....custom drip 7

This video is just nuts.

I love the collections you guys have. You all have great taste!

Nice. I have an 83 explorer and my dad has a 30th anniversary gold top les paul. He used to have a JEM777LNG, but had to sell it. I'd like to get him another one, if I can find one.

Nor Cal ZL1 · 03-27-2015, 09:53 PM

Lots of nice guitars. Here is my little set up. I like Gibson SG's. Amp is a Reeves 50 watt tube with EL34 tubes and power scaling. Guitars are Gibson SG Classic with P90's, and SG standard with humbuckers. Strat is a knock off couch guitar. Have a few pedals, Wattson classic fuzz, Caitlain Bread WIIO, OCD, Tech 9 Leeds, and Fulltone Fulldrive.

RubyCamaro · 03-27-2015, 10:20 PM

Nice guitars guys! I just play with a guitar but it is fun. I was given my father-in-laws guitar to play with (I only ever had really cheap ones). I'll take some pics one of these days. He was a professional musician in his youth. Nothing as nice as those though.

Linker239 · 03-27-2015, 10:25 PM

Absolutely beautiful guitars, great collections. I love a good natural or transparent finish. I end up working on them and building them, more than I get to play. Just too busy with school and work. I did pick up a peavey valve king over the summer, and that sucker gets loud.

I love Sg's. I think of all the guitars that scream "classic" to me it's the SG. So many great albums have been recorded using that very guitar. Even with LP's being the picture instrument of rock n' roll few fiddles can hold such a place in music history as the SG. It not only made it's mark but holds a special place in music.
