PrairieSchooner Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Nice! I used to have that exact lap steel; I traded it to George Gruhn in a deal for a Bacon banjo years ago. Still have the banjo though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goaty76 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Thats a Cool Lot.... the ebony paddle peghead... thats a walnut body is it not? I own a 20 Style 0 and a 20 U.. Slimt, Yeah, that's a cool one. When I had it restored they actually sent a little bit of the back wood out to be analyzed. I forget now if it was walnut or not. There is a interesting discussion of it here. http://theunofficialmartinguitarforum.yuku.com/topic/94930/Historic-guitar-restoration. The more recent part of the discussion starts on pg.2.

tpbiii Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Sorry, more than three but they're on a sofa, all Gibson's, all archtops. Two shots as I couldn't get the full sofa in one. Pic is from a little while ago so not all of them are around anymore. Phil Woof You complained about me showing more than 3 guitars, but Phil gets on a double gaggle pass -- you are treating him better even than you treated Chopped Liver. Phil, I don't get to say this often, but I know where there is an original case for that style 5 (oops - I guess it is a 4) mandocello -- it has nothing to do with me, but if you need one PM me and I will put you in touch. And woof -- I did go through a sofa period while photographing guitars. I'm over it now and you can't go back -- but I may still find more[thumbup]. Let's pick, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpbiii Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I found a few more. Gibson bought off ebay in the early years: Here is a double mahogany progression: 33, 33, 34, 35 0, 00 ,000, D As I recall, a lot of people insulted my couch -- which led me to the Persian Rug and Fireplace approach.

duluthdan Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 So the J-200 is Uncle Charlie? As a matter of fact, I suppose it is. Being a 2002 it's the eldest I have. Well, I suppose it's darn near "Vintage" to the rest of my herd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpfan Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Ill play but I don't have 3 acoustics, only 2. But they are a nice pair! I use to have all of these Epiphone's at one time. Wish I still did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHJimY Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Here are my couch arsenal. There's my 1962 Martin D-21, my 1950 Gibson LG1, my wife's 1921 OO-18 and my 1958 Goya M-26. Here are a trio of sunbursts, The '58 M-26, the '50 LG1 and an Epiphone 12-string that I sold to my brother a few years ago. Here are my mandos, a 1982 Washburn, a Trinity College OM and a 2005 Eastman 605: Three of my banjos: an old catalog banjo, an S.S.Stewart open back tenor and one that I built in the mid seventies. Two of my ukuleles: a Johnson concert resophonic and a Koa Kala concert. I still own all of these instruments except the 12-string, but the brown couch and love seat went to the Sally Ann a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJimY Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 A bunch of uke style instruments on a futon in the back room. These belong to a group of people who were visiting. Some are mine and my wife's: The new couch with a Filipino banduria that my son and daughter in law brought me back from the Philippines. I put the mandolin in the picture to show the size. 14 strings and the tuning head is longer than the neck. M friend and partner in The Maple Leaf Champions Jug Band owns the National guitar sitting next to my reso-uke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
