jannusguy2 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Figured I'd document what I'm starting the year with to have something for comparison at the end of next year. Plus, I hadn't done a group shot in awhile. Feel free to add on. I present my crappy little collection as arranged in my sh*tty condo on the Gulf of Mexico: Top row L-R Martin CS21-11, 1971 D28, 1960 D18, 2009 00018 Marquis Bottom row- L-R Martin 2009 OM 21 Special, 1951 J45, 2012 Custom J200 TV, 2007 Roy Smeck The view from here: A lot to be grateful for. Have a good year everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-1854Me Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Same to you, Rob! Wish I had that view (the second one....); all I have is an American volcano, when it's not cloudy below 10,000 feet. Maybe one of these days I'll gather the troops for a group shot.

losmecos Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Very nice pictures. I wont send a picture of my cold Montréal by -22 celcius... Sunny and everything, but so damn COLD !!! P.S. How can you manage all those perfect guitars. I would be in psychosis , interned somewhere, by not knowing wich one I want to play. Carefull , a nervous brakedown can be at your beautiful, hot, and sunny door step !!! Ha ha ha... Michel Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duly noted. I flipped a coin when deciding to keep the J 45 or the '52 Southern Jumbo. The J45 won..and it was my first foray into the vintage world so it had a sentimental aspect as well. It's a good un... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect if circumstances forced a sell off it would be the last to go. It's the guitar that started the GAS. I acquired the holy grail early on. Maybe I should've stopped buying then.

None of them are ever far away from a good work out of a couple of hours. They all have different personalities to accommodate my different moods…Bonne Annee.

ParlourMan Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 There appear to be many available, PM. I saw several on eBay. Bon chance. A lot of them have that lower part though, I'm looking for no lower shelf… So probably end up with a more modern take on it, somewhat defeating the point. Cheers though… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluesKing777 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I knew I shouldn't look, and I did! An absolutely beautiful group that covers a lot of sounds - truly no idea which I would pick if I could pick one... Have a good year then. BluesKing777.
