for whatever reason, it seams a fair majority of cg artists play instruments. usually guitars. you'd never have guessed, but i play guitar.

 

lets see what you got. i'll kick off -

here's my baby. a Fender USA Strat. (leftie). about 10 years old. original single coil pickups replaced with Lace Sensors, and an active boost pre-amp installed. awesomeness. i have Hank Marvin's signature on it from when i met him, so i have it insured for over 2K.

 

it's a working guitar, i play it 2-3 times publically per week. i've just ordered myself an Epiphone Les Paul standard to compliment it. cant wait.

 

come on then, lets see what you got :)

Hey thats cool......nice to know...ok now, the black n white image is my previous setup a cheap Ibanez GIO, Zoom Gfx8 and my Peavey Blazer 158.

 

the 2nd image i also use this as my avatar....is my new Ibanez PGM i just love my guitar with my Dashing Digitech GNX2.

 

Its a shame that now these days i actually cant spend much time with my music as i was use to be....5 hours a day atleast......

here my little setup. though i wouldn't say that i am really a great keyboarder. i would call myself more of an arranger or composer.

unfortunately it is already a bit time ago, that i really could sit down and play around...

After many years, I've settled on this set-up:

 

72" Gibson Les Paul Deluxe (Dark Sunburst) - I love this guitar more than my wife. (Honey, if you see this, I'm just kidding)

 

Custom made Fender Strat. HR- It's been put together with an original body and American re-issue neck - Seymour Duncan double coil bridge pick-up with a Floyd-Rose bridge - Blood red wth Rosewood neck

 

BC Rich NJ series - Black (My beater guitar)

 

Yamaha - Cassical acoustic

 

Line6 Flextone 2 w/ pedal board - I've always been a tube kind of guy (Marshalls and Hiwatts with a power soak until I found this amp)

 

also have a line 6 Guitar port hooked up to my computer.

Last week I inherited an SG from maybe 1965-67. With a Princeton tube amp from the same time that I haven't brought home yet, but I'm told it's very loud. I think I need to have these appraised and insured.

 

Can anybody tell me what the color is called? The cherry color they sell now is much more red.

 

Now I need to get a lot better at playing it...

While this subject is up, can anyone recommend a good PC program to simulate amp effects? Rather than go buy myself a new amp, I have a nice media PC setup on my new huge stereo... interested to hear if it sounds any good..

 

Any suggestions?
