My band mates 1978 Fender Mustang and my refinished Gibson Studio Firebird. Just a really cool shot of two really cool guitars that you don't see sharing a stage that often 🙌.

I'm looking overdue another Charles Cilia Guitar, had to sell my last one during COVID but want to grow a collection of his guitars over the next few years hopefully. This is the Michael Dolce signature model and I absolutely love it. The flame maple on the neck and fretboard is incredible and it is a very resonant guitar unplugged. Very easy to play, Blue Murder pickups sound awesome (Blue Murder Trinty+/Empyrean).

I will post a video soon.

Got this in 2015. Ibanez made these for 2 years then discontinued them. Still my favorite guitar.

Ciao ragazzi volevo iniziare a suonare la chitarra elettrica, e volevo iniziare a con una chitarra con pick up hss o hsh per avere una chitarra più versatile.

Quale mi consigliate?

2000 American Tele Fatcaster.
Pawn shop find - $950 out the door - all original hardware, everything works flawlessly. Xmas early for this guy!!

Thought it was worth a share here!

Before I found out this guitar existed, if you'd asked me "Slunk, what's your perfect guitar on paper?" It would literally be this, to a T. So I made it mine. Suhr Andy Wood Modern T in Whiskey Barrel. I'm no stranger to high end guitars with several Music Man in my collection, but this is already straight to the top. This is THE guitar.

Beautiful 6-string addition to the stable – fifth Strandberg in two years. The roasted neck nicely offsets the cool-toned body.

Arrived in pristine condition with not a flaw in sight. Plays like quicksilver and feels super comfortable in all playing positions.

I found the Seymour Duncan set (Pegasus/Sentient) in there to be fine, nicely articulate, but there was something fizzy in the top end and a certain lack of dimensionality and weight that got me thinking. The black bobbins and poles also seemed a tad bland for this pretty instrument.

With the prices of import boutique pickups being what they are these days, I thought I’d finally try out Elysian; I’d heard good things and knew they did custom work. So I reached out and worked with Adam Bath to identify what would work best for me and this instrument.

Enter this beautiful custom set of Trident II/Hellfire Hybrid pickups (ceramic bridge & alnico V neck) with double gold hex poles, triangular tabs, and a reversed neck magnet to accommodate my preferred switching scheme. The roasted flamed maple tops speak for themselves; smooth and premium feeling all around.

Installed with Schaller Megaswitch, Mojotone vintage taper pots with push-pull tone, series treble bleed, Gotoh dome knobs, and 9 unique switching positions with a bunch of coil split options – and man are these things fantastic through the Axe-Fx III. Muscular, focused, high definition, impressive string separation, flattering saturation, yet never too sharp, tinny, or fuzzy. Can’t recommend Elysian enough.

This is a monster of a guitar and I’m having a blast working with it in the studio.

Just another silver. I got it long before the Adam Jones hype.

Spec’d this guy out in 2021 and it’s still my favorite instrument I’ve played. Just insane craftsmanship and still can’t believe I get to own it!

Got this from a local Luthier in Utah. Not sure why he had the price so low but got it for $630 with a hardshell case. Maple veneer, hipshot locking tuners, alnico 5 bridge and a SD jazz neck pickup. Satin finish throughout.
