Any guitar pickers in the house?

[captain_bob_badfish]

Besides playing with firearms, my other passion is playing the guitar.

Here are a few of my git-fiddles and amplifiers.

I had these two custom built as a WWII tribute to my Grandfather.

VERY NICE Collection
I played an acoustic years and years ago. Haven't picked one up in probably 25 years.

[Big Ben]

Tried to teach myself to play when I was a teenager, never really followed through with it.
Always wanted a Telecaster, don't know why, just always liked them.

I played some acustic guitar back in jr high as my instrument of choice. Learned to play, "Paperback Writer" for my test. I don't think I made a good grade...

Captain. I started when I was 10, 47 years ago. Mostly acoustic although I did get a Tele a few years ago. At the moment I own the Fender, one Taylor, a Martin D-40, two JW Gallaghers from Tennessee and one from Bill Collings in Austin, TX. The fingers are getting older and less nimble but I still enjoy it and try to play every day. I'll get some photos up in a few days.

Nice Axes, really nice Marshall Stack. I played back in the 70s,, in a couple of local bands, opened for a few big acts. Had a Gibson EB-3 Custom L-H Bass and a Sunn 200SL with twin Bottoms. Nowadays, I just bang around on an Epiphone(Gibson) AJ-18SL Drednaught. Don't play as much as I should though.

I used to strum a few songs a long time ago. Have not picked up a guitar in years. I just reciently came across a picture of me playing on stage at age 16 in High School .Should be good for a laugh. Damn Hippies!

We used a handcrank generator. Not too long after electricity we got flush toilets $toilet$ and indoor running water.:D

Ive been known to pick a song or two.

Here's my cousin fondling my Fender D-5. The plank's name is Gabby because she was bought with overtime money from Tropical Storm Gabriel.

I specialize in drunken campfire ballads.

The crowd favorites are,
Spider Island
Screwed by an Evinrude
Waiting for the Captain
I am a Pirate

Along with several covers.

Today is Les Paul’s birthday, hence Google’s home page graphics. You can actually strum the strings.

[captain_bob_badfish]

Very nice! Those are worth a few bucks now. A Fender Mustang and a Les Paul Custom.

I have zero talent to play any instrument without a trigger, but Joe Bonamassa is my absolute favorite Blues man. During his concert in London, Eric Clapton came out to play with him. Simply awestruck by that particular performance! Our Daughter plays Cello in the high school Orchestra and was equally impressed with Joe's work, and asked for a "git-fiddle" as was described earlier; I found a way to finance the purchase and lessons for her. Our little girl has Soul, who knew?

I "play" an Epiphone accoustic. Just for my own pain. I had a real idiot for a teacher, me.

I love Bonamassa. I think I'm going to check him out in concert this summer.

Not exactly guitar, but did you catch Steve Martin picking the banjo at the Wash, DC concert? Check out the Steep Canyon Rangers. Great version of the Orange Blossom Special. His fiddle players is fantastic!
