Hello y'all, from Fort Worth, Texas here. I've been playing for a little over 16 years now. Currently building a song writing studio at mi casa. Have a handfull of Teles and feel blessed to have them. My progression in guitars has been from Strats to Teles to Les Pauls to Hollowbodys to various Gibson style varients such as Epiphone Sheratons, Explorers, SGs, etc. I've come full circle and am back into Strats and Teles, though I'll never part with my SGs.
Currently I have a small but nice collection...
1 US Fender Deluxe Tele in BSB
2 US Standard Teles one natural ash and one in black
1 MIM Nashville Tele that is about to be modified (again)
1 Fender J5 Tele with the 3 humbuckers
1 Fender 72 Thinline Reissue
Soon to have a MIM standard ash Tele to be modified into a Mike Stern Signature clone and a sunburst MIM standard Tele to be modified into a fat Tele and a Squier Classic Vibe to be modified into an Esquire, a Squire Custom and Custom II cause they're just too cool and if I ever see a good deal on a Fender Lite Ash Tele or another 72 Thinline, I'll snatch them up too.
Non-Teles are:
1 MIM Standard Fender Fat Strat with a Dimarzio Super Distortion humbucker at the bridge, sunburst.
2 Gibson Classic SGs, I'd love to get another if the price is right. These are the best SGs Gibson has put out since the Pete Townsend Signature.
1 Gibson Guitar of the Week 67 Special Reissue SG which I don't play even because it's just too darn nice, but I have some studio work I'll use it for.
That's about it. I'd like an Epiphone Sheraton if I can find a Korean one in good shape, the Chinese ones I've seen have been lacking.
So I've got a lot, I'd dig some more (who wouldn't).
Amps are a Vox Valvetronix AD30 (great for the money)
Crate Vintage Club 30 from the 1990's, those things are hidden jewels, noisy but awesome tone, like an origional set of 50's pickups.
I'd like a Vox AC15, a Peavey Classic 30 and a 1x12 5150 (if I ever play rock again).
