Show us your guitar(s)!

Just saw this thread and thought that it would be fun to show off all of my cheap stuff to balance out all the amazing expensive guitars and custom-made beauties that have seen so far.

This is my baby. An 80s Takamine GX-200. With my research I have found they were only made for 3 years and there are reportedly less than 200 of each color made. I am proud to be in possession of such a piece of history. I traded a cheap no name steel string acoustic for it in the late 90s and I have done some maintenance on it. I have replaced all of the electronics including pots and pups ( I kept them for nostalgic reasons) I have replaced the tuners and the knobs. I tried to keep it all looking original. I even had to fabricate a new electronics cover for the back. It’s my favorite player. Buttery smooth action

Here’s my newest addition. It’s a Schecter C7 FR-S 7 string Apocalypse in Red Reign with a Sustainiac pickup at the neck and the Apocalypse at the bridge. The body is swamp ash which is visible from the back. It is a nice contrast to the beautiful red front. I would show it to you but as a newbie here I’m limited in my posting abilities.

@xush Just to answer your question from the pedalboard thread:

That’s a Oopegg Trailbreaker MK I; strictly speaking it’s that exact one from the 2022 Boutique Guitar Showcase with Magneto Design Labs pickups:


Meanwhile i changed the knobs for white stompbox-style ones with polished aluminium inlays as i liked these better:

Sorry, got no time to do full pictures at the moment, but here are some detail shots i took in the past:

Gibson Les Paul Classic 2023. Pride and Joy. Plays amazing and sounds great

Gretsch Thunderbird Jupiter 2021 factory special run.

With my QC rig / board. Signal path:

  1. Sir Henry vibe
  2. Chase Bliss Automatone Preamp MKII
  3. Cali 76 fet compressor
  4. QC
  5. Lehle 90 volume in loop 1 of QC.

I am using the Graviton midi device with their XY and EC controllers (see top of strap) and 2 Hotones used for expression.

Lehle doesn’t make a bad product, I swear. I love that they sell the parts along with the pedals, because they are specific to Lehle in that respect (at least aesthetically). I think the real heart of your tone is that the calaveras chilling on the couch — I thought for a second that’s what you meant by “Sir Henry” :rofl:
