I’m a sucker for vintage-esque guitars, and an even bigger sucker for used gear. Pics are in chronological order from my first to most recent acquisition😋

Got a few in the shop, and a Music Man Armada landing next week, but these are the current favorites. The Tremonti is getting most playing time at the moment, but I honestly cycle through most of these to see what fits new songs I’m writing. The Novo is my main clean, and the Jackson Virtuoso is my main practice guitar, as that flat satin neck is just so nice. I love them all though.
1959 Reissue made in 2025 Light Aged.
The craziest top I have ever seen online or offline.
My god this guitar leaves me in awe every time I see it.
I got it in Japan used. With my stronger currency and used price it wasn’t too bad.
This is a Focus Mutt with a lefty Kramer USA neck. My first attempt at a veneer, that I messed up badly. Over the years, the top has turned orange in places adding an even more odd vibe.
Electronics are EMG 57 and SLV, with volume, 3 way, and a switch to bypass the volume knob. I have the switch, so I can roll the volume for cleans, and flick it for full volume again. Then switch back to those cleans as needed. Or a kill switch, if the volume is rolled all the way down.
Either way, enjoy a funky home modded guitar that was a learning experience for me.
It’s another double trouble post, Stratocaster edition this time.
American Professional Classic in Faded Firemist Gold and Vintera III Late 50s in Aztec Gold. Who wore it better?
First picture has a filter, the rest do not.
Every guitar after these is just GAS. I’ve got everything I need right here. No more, no less.
Au bout de presque 15 années à avoir repris la guitare…
Je les adore !
En high gain avec la Gibson ou la Charvel, overdrive et fuzz sur le Super Reverb ou le Rivera !

-Ibanez Art Core 90´s

Fender American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster, featuring Lollar pickups. Faded Sherwood Metallic finish. I actually just listed this one, but it’s pretty cool. Part of me hopes it won’t sell. The neck almost has a little flaming.
Stopped by my buddy’s house to check out and photograph his newest Charvel, what a crazy guitar 😮💨
