Guitar Pictures.

i've been on a picture-taking kick lately, due in part to the nice weather we've been having here over the last few weeks. here's some new pics of an old friend; my '89 LP Custom that some of you might recognize from past photos. it's seen a lot of stage and studio action, for sure. re-fretted twice. weighs about 13 lbs. i played this guitar almost two hours a night, every night, for five years straight. it never let me down. along with my Silverburst, this one is on my very short "buried-in-coffin" list.


















i'll probably just keep posting pics to this thread as the mood strikes me. hopefully you can dig it.

Re: Guitar Pictures.

Beautiful with lots of character and history.

But 13 pounds?! Were you playing it sitting down?

Re: Guitar Pictures.

here's my Fender '52 Telecaster "Hot Rod". i picked this one up because it sounds amazing, and also because i haven't seen too many of these in black (they all seem to be butterscotch).

Re: Guitar Pictures.

for some reason, this is one of my favorite pics that i've taken. i think it's because i can see the christmas lights from the tree reflected in the finish and it reminds me of the holidays last year. overall, the picture just gives a calming old-soul vibe that i really enjoy. no, i ain't been drinkin'. just drunk on thoughts.

Nice pictures, man! What camera did you use?
Rekel 1:1 -"I" is not the way.

He was rewarded with a promotion and received roughly $17,000 after having committed this murder. But we will never forget.

Re: Guitar Pictures.

Nice! I love my '52 Hot Rod. They've only made the black one under a year now; probably why you mostly see the butterscotch ones. I've always told myself that if I ever become a rich man, I'm buying one in black too.

here you go, Jkater. this one gets a lot of playing time, actually. the guy that put it together did an amazing job, and i can play on this U-shaped neck for hours without even feeling the time tick by.

This is going to be an interesting ride, as you have some incredible guitars.

Just out of curiosity, what kind of camera are you using for these pics?

hey, thank you for subscribing! I'll keep adding to the thread as inspiration hits. others are certainly encouraged to share their favorites as well.

nothing special at all. i'm using a Canon 8.0 megapixel point and shoot, and some of these are my older Canon 5.0 megapixel camera (i misplaced the charger for the 8.0 and couldn't find it for weeks, so had to go back to the 5.0). i'm not sure anyone could really tell the difference for what i'm doing.

Re: Guitar Pictures.



a killer recording combo, IMO. the BadCat is 18 watts, and the JMP is 50 watts.
