Here's Pic 11 ............
These are scans of photo prints, so the quality is not all that good. But, it give you an idea about my "other" adiction. LOL (And, I'm about to turn 54 in a couple of weeks)

Thanks for the compliments, MIke.
Yup, she's a keeper! Interestingly enough, I had an Uncle that worked for Gibson, in Kalamazoo, before they moved everything to Nashville. I always assocoate certain guitars with certain artists, too. White Firebird - Johnny Winter. Sunburst Les Paul - Jimmy Page, Gary Moore, Gary Richrath & tons more .... I have not sold very many over the years, but I did have a Flying V and an ES335 at one point. I wouldn't mind owning a white Thunderbird Bass, to match the Firebird. And, as untraditional as it is, I would like a Rainsong acoustic. They are 100% Carbon Fiber, and play & sound amazing.

Another fav of mine on the guitar is Vito Bratto, from White Lion. A truly Eddie VH competitor again IMHO.

My ES335 guy was Alvin Lee from Ten Years After. "I'm Goin' Home " from Woodstock is a classic. Plus Larry Carlton, the jazz great, was a ES335 player.
Gary Richrath: www.garyrichrath.com Some solo stuff, plus all his REO work, as well. Oh, and you can't forget Slash as a Sunburst Les Paul, guy as well as Ace Frehley! Or Billy Gibbons and his "Pearly Gates" '59 Les Paul. I thought I would have a little fun with this thread, and post up some more Les Paul players ........ Can you name them all?
