My Name is John (some of you may know me from MLP) & I'm a compulsive guitar addict and stupidly thought joining this would help me not to buy anymore guitars, [rolleyes] Boy was I wrong.

I have Been Playing for 30 years both semi pro and just for fun but have never been what you'd call a great lead guitarist but i can get by. I like a groove. I also enjoy anyone that knows chords and uses them well.

my current collection stands at 112 including.

 

Back Row = 2012 50's Tribute SG

Left to Right

1982 Spirit 1 (all original with Tim Shaw 59 Humbucker)

2014 Les Paul Traditional

2012 Les Paul Classic Custom

2012 Les Paul Studio 50's Tribute HB

Lastly, like so many others here, the guitar is such a great friend to me. It has always been there. Remember..the tone is in your fingers.

Thanks!

Nice forum

What kind of amps are you running these through? Do you gig a lot, play a lot? Which ones are your favorites?

 

I'm almost as big an addict for amps as guitars (current collection 23 amp and assorted cabs)

 

I'm in a band that gig every week with different setlists, so I get to use most of my gear on a regular basis.

 

my favorites st the moment are =

Home use

 

Epiphone Electar “1939” Century” Reissue

Juketone “Royal Blood” Amp Head

Juketone 1x12 Cabinet

 

Gig use

*Epiphone Valve Junior Head (Hot Rod Special Mods) as pre-amp

*Epiphone Valve Junior Head

*Epiphone Valve Junior 1x12 Cabinet x 2

* = wired together as one unit

 

Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III “Western Noir”

Marshall 2199 JMP Master Lead Combo

Vox AC-30 VR

 

Full Rock out gigs
