what guitar/s do you play? : wildly OT

Rock the Fenders you guys! Awesome! Excellent taste in cameras as well as guitars!

I haven't yet seen anyone with a Les Paul or a boring Strat (though there have been a few interesting ones.) I'm impressed.

Japanese guitars are like Japanese cameras. Good old Japanese manufacturing.
 
Taylor acoustic, which mostly stays in the rhythmn department, but can be coaxed into fingerstyle land when I am feeling ambitious. 😀

Fender Jazz bass, which is half mine, which I play most of the time. I play good enough to gig regularly, and it is fun. Though, it hampers my singing. Ahhhh, melody and harmony. Beautiful.

A working knowledge of piano. Not the best, but would like to learn someday...

I play some classical, folk and a little jazz on guitar. I've got a Yairi classical and a 1934 Gibson L-50 acoustic archtop, and a Ukebrand ukulele, which is a modern Koa reproduction of a 1920's Kumalae.

Like Rover, though, my real instrument is the trombone--1954 Conn 10-H, Edwards T-350 with a Bach 42 slide, Rath R-9 bass.
 
I'm a bass player that also dabbles in guitar.

Basses: Bongo 5H, SR5, Sterling, Tacoma Thunderchief, Ric 4001, and a few others.

Guitar: Ric 650D, Gibson SG, Seagull Folk.
 
Who knew all these guitarists hung out on RFF? Is it getting hot in here?

(Yes, I am one of those women with a guitarist problem.)

Back when I was a metalhead I would have gotten an Ibanez with shark tooth inlay and a whammy bar. Thankfully I have gotten over that. At the time I was such a guitar Betty that I even read Guitar for the Practicing Musician, and I couldn't play.

I still can't play -- I've tried, my hands just won't do it -- but if I did, I think now I'd want a PRS with sunburst stain and the birds on the neck. My brother, who actually is a musician, just bought a vintage PRS that is unbelieveably sick.

Melanie, have you ever started out the easy way with power chords? Many musical careers have been made with a single finger!
 
Wow- didn't know there was a guiatr thread.

I play a Steinberger GT and an Ibanez Artcore AG-75. Rock, and blues with jazz influences.

Maybe this thread could degenerate into "Clapton is God" and "Jimi rules" rants 🙂
 
Since my last post in this thread last November, I've bought an Ibanez AEG10E acoustic and two cheap mandolins. I joined an Irish band that plays traditional and pub songs. I've been playing guitar on a few songs and strumming chords on the mandolin for the rest. We played a whole bunch of gigs leading up to St. Patrick's Day. Now things and have calmed down a little and I can spend some time to actually learn how to play the mandolin. 🙂
 
I haven't been playing much lately, but I still own an ES-335, Art and Lutherie, and a Rozas concert guitar. I also have another concert classical I want to sell, and was curious if anyone knows of a good place to sell it online. It's a handmade brazilian rosewood guitar, made by a small american luthier. Let me know, as I don't really use it anymore.
