There it is! Red, you have the best collection I've ever seen! What's your total count? Ive been scaling back. I cant remember if Ive asked or seen your amps

 

Thanks, Svet. I appreciate it. There are a few people over at the Gibson Acoustic forum who have collections that mine look a starter kit! Even though you're downsizing, you still have a very tasty collection. Well-chosen.

 

I have four more acoustics not pictured, including a Masterbilt AJ500M and an EJ-160E. I guess I have about an equal number of electrics as acoustics (you've seen those pictures). I haven't bought a new guitar this year, though, but I have been tempted!

 

I don't have any pictures of my amps. They're mostly small 5 watters these days, which are fine around the house. I have a couple of Epiphone Valve Juniors, a Fender Champ, a Gibson GA-5 (awesome), and a few solid state amps, too. I also have an Epiphone Blues Custom. Do you still have yours, or did you find a buyer? It's a very good amp.

 

Good to see you can find time to post from time to time; there's lots to do when starting a new family, huh?

 

Take care!

Thanks Red,

 

I can't explain it but they tend to find me. Some of them were unplayable and unwanted when took them in. I give them a home and try to get them back in playable condition but just do not seem to get around to the cosmetics. So while they play and sound good the ain't gonna take home any beauty awards.

 

The one with the cool factor though is the National Duolian. John Hammond, Jr. played it when he was recording "In Your Arms Again" in a coverted church in Salina, Kansas.
