Hi there, here are my 3 guitars :



Some more pictures here (sorry they're mostly lousy pics ...)
- 2007 Giambattista (i.e. Castelluccia, he's a parisian guitar maker but this one is built by his team rather than himself) FG2 (flamenco). Still my favorite guitar, too bad my flamenco skills aren't on par with it, but as long as you can do a decent rest stroke or a half-good rasgueo you can sound awesome with it.
- 1948 Epiphone Blackstone - the last one I've bought, as I'm playing more jazz than flamenco for the moment ; it's great for gypsy jazz by the way. Pretty much nothing on it is original (tailpiece, tuners, floating mic of course, etc). The front sunburst is intriguing with an almost greenish hue in some places (not sure it really shows on my pics), and the back is incredibly beautiful.
- 1976 Fender Mustang - I've already posted some pics of this one ; I've stickered it a bit and I just love its neck pickup

That is a very classy well rounded collection Marc

Marc all of your guitars look lovely, especially that epiphone, as it has aged beautifully.

Thanks for the comments !

The Epiphone is beautiful. Really nice guitar.

My new K.Yairi G1F.

Lovely. Not to keen on the tort but still... lovely!

for a second i thought there was a nike decal on it =]

Here is my 2 Westone Thunder I's.

one pretty good nick, one terrible. (plus 2 boss xtortions, 1 mega distortion, 1 bass overdrive and a artec tuner)

Nice. There's a fair bit of love for Westones around here.

Nice! I love mine, I've got an Aria Pro II Cardinal Series too, but no picture of it.

Name's Keegan. I have no shortscales, but I want one, or three, figured that was good enough.

My 'lectrics. Dano U2 reissue(needs a bridge), Squier VM Tele, Ho-made walnut tele beast.



And my 60s parlor acoustic

I've always liked those VM teles. There ought to be more mini humbuckers in guitars.

The duncan designed minibucker is pretty lame, way muddy sounding even after trying to adjust it. I suspect one with the pole screws exposed and wound not so hot would sound better. The middle pickup is completely useless(half the output of the other pickups and sounds like a limp dick), and the bridge is a bit flat sounding for a tele pickup(probably just because it's a stacked noiseless design).

Might swap the pickups in it eventually, if I end up keeping it. I really just got it for school, which the dano will do perfectly well once it's playing.

Aye, I thought so when I tried one. I remember seeing those guitars and really liking the idea, but was totally underwhelmed playing one in real life.

This is just stupid...

>Classifieds...

aye, agreed. send that jaggy my way, boyeeeeeeee.

What, the black one
The Duo is going off to lank tomorrow, resulting funds will to go AVRI pickups for my black jag. Then I'll basically have the Musicmaster, Tele, and Jaguar as my main guitars and the rest will stay in cases. Can't sell them because of sentimental value.

Sadie is still up for grabs I'd like to see her to a good home

oddly enough, for the last 3 nights, i've thought of ways to steal her from you.

breaking in, chloraform, and clever disguises were among the schemes.

I'm new on here, been on OSG for a while though. I like putting guitars together from parts, building pedals, amps, modding shit, etc. Figured a good first post would be of the family:
