Basshole Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 For the longest time Ive noticed that I have a pink stratocaster sitting in my room, I never play it. Though it does have some super hot pick-ups and has a mighty miite neck, I never play it. It even has a pink strap. Latley Ive just been thinking "why do I have that" Do you ever have guitar like this, that you bought and then you wonder why you got it in the first place?
deepblue Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 I have only 4 guitars now and each one serves a purpose. R9) For good ol' rock n' roll with balls.....70's style. Stratocaster) For blues. Tuned down half a step. Charvel San Dimas) For 80's style rock with a whammy bar and a flat neck radius. Alvarez Yairi) Sweet acoustic for when the mood strikes.
heymisterk Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 I still have a classical guitar of good quality that I haven't played in over a decade. For some reason, I keep thinking I'm suddenly going to take up lessons again.

Alvarez-Yairi...LOVE mine...amazing quality...What model do you have?
deepblue Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 Alvarez-Yairi...LOVE mine...amazing quality...What model do you have? I have the DYM95 Masterworks. Beautiful sound and it is flawless in its construction. What model do you have?
Basshole Posted April 21, 2009 Author Posted April 21, 2009 the danelectro Hmmmmm Thats the last guitar I buy for you.
heymisterk Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 I have the DYM95 Masterworks. Beautiful sound and it is flawless in its construction. What model do you have? Very nice. A Masterworks might be my next guitar. I have a '91 DY-53N. It's classified as a "mini-jumbo." The thing has been through hell and back and just sounds better and better. It's built like Gibralter.
DamienAzrael Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 My Tele...It's become a dust collector of sorts....I initially bought it for recording purposes....It gets used maybe once a year.

The thing has been through hell and back and just sounds better and better. It's built like Gibralter. Each Yairi is seasoned. They put every guitar in a sound proof room and play music through speakers to tighten the wood cells of the guitar. They do get better with age as well! You have a sweet guitar!

RichCI Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 Several. One is a one of those cheap Yamaha archtop guitars; I picked it up at a clearance sale for $150 around two years ago and have probably played it three times. It just doesn't do it for me. I have a couple of old Ibanez guitars that need to be put together but I just never seem to get around to it. One is shaped similar to a Les Paul and is actually a pretty nice guitar, the other is a pointy heavy metal thing that I modified the heck out of. I have some sort of custom made parts guitar some guy made that is shaped like a Jackson Rhoads V (it's blue and has an 80's style design on it too). I bought that one over 20 years ago based on looks alone and it was just never a very good guitar. Another one that has been pillaged and needs to be put back together. I own around 12 guitar, play four on a fairly regular basis and two all the time - my LP and my Strat the most followed somewhat closely by my Tele.
solacematt Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 My silver strat. I hate strats, can't play them, they're uncomfortable. Than I remember, oh yea, I have stupid obsessions.
Basshole Posted April 21, 2009 Author Posted April 21, 2009 Maybe you have a dual personality and....You Know. LOL!!! Oh I get it. I can either have steak or I can have ice cream but my pink strat is like having steak and ice cream
