Crap, I misspelled it. It is octogenarian and it is a person in their eighties. I must edit now.

I also have a japanese les paul copy by Maya from the 70's. I'm completely worthless when it comes to playing it, but the guitar itself isn't that bad from what I've heard.

I really liked being able to play whenever I wanted in my old house.. and encouraged to do so. It would be guitars and drums and whatever else in one of our bedrooms four+ times a week.

Now I'm living with non musos and my inspiration to sit down really lags. I've set it up after not having it for about 6 months, and I think I've sat down once in the last three weeks. : /

random.. some sticks I burnished for someone else who plays:
Nice to see some more drummers around here!!

I have a 6 piece Pearl Session Series set
 

This, but in a 6 piece.


I also have a light blue Strat that I bought in 1995....I don't play it hardly ever, but I should.

I wish I could find out more about mine. I have had it into half a dozen different shops for new pickups, wiring, tuners, et cetera - but no one knows what it is. they all agree that it sounds wonderful and plays great, though, and it is my baby, I will have her always.

2005 CIJ Jazzmaster, with a few mods (AVRI pickups, Mustang bridge, buzz stop and copper shielding). I might put a US tremolo as the Japanese one isn't great.

1990 Gibson ES335
 


1966 Vox Cheetah

I'd love to have an old teisco or hofner because they're pretty much the coolest looking guitars ever. I'd be gazing at the guitar instead of trying to play it.

Haha. Yeah, this is my second Peavey. Sure I would prefer a Marshall or a pre-CBS Fender Bandmaster/Super Reverb/etc., but for a tube amp under $500, the sound is kick ass.

Yeah... I'm a tube amp nerd, i.e. I've worked on tube amps before, so I'll never go back to solid state amps. Bleh.
