Whether, it be drums or guitar, or anything else.

[drum pics coming on Monday, after I clean them.]

haha. Here comes the wave of "show us your" topics. :facepalm:

My instruments/gear:
Image

:P 3 separate amps I used to put on top of each other to "look cool". (Was functional too)
Image
Top- 1970s Traynor TS-15 amp. Has master volume and Volume cut-off switch (3 way) Let's you control gain. (15-watts)
Image
Mid- Line Spider 3. The dude at guitar center sold it to me when I first starting playing. (Didn't know much about amps then) Still a good amp though. Not to bad on tones (30 watts)
Image
Bottom- Behringer KX1200. It's really a Vox (Vocals) PA all in one sorta thing, so it has a lot of low end and such when using a guitar through it. 120 watts, for $40 at a garage sale. (Good deal)

When Daisy Chained, it can pull pretty loud.
Image
Old Tiesco Check Mate 20 amp. All tube, sounds great when cranked. Hasn't been touched since I got it. (The bass knob lowers volume, and doesn't really add bass :lol: )
Image
My First guitar. An '03ish Mexi Strat. Plays reaaaaaal smooth. Not actually mine, got it from my sister who never played it.
Image
Old Signet Acoustic. Plays nice, great tone. I'm thinking late 60s early 70s if I remember correctly.
Image
I think it's an '01 Squier. It's a Bullet II, so it's a basic 1 H 1VK setup. Plays really great, even with the extremely crap stock bucker in it. (Don't listen to what people say about squiers. The decent priced ones are pretty good guitars, and worth the money if your just starting out, or if your an intermediate) Until you've played one, don't knock one.
Image
Newest Purchase. 1994 or 1991 Fender Telecaster FotoFlame Series. It's out of production now, so it's pretty cool to have. (Somewhat limited produced) I payed $100 for it at a garage sale, and it's worth every penny. It's got a Tele Bridge with a 3 strat pickup design, the flipped control panel for better access, and a great neck. The thing with these guitars, is that the finish on them isn't real. It's actually a high res laminate that they overlayed on, even onto the neck, and looks really great. It was made in Japan in the Fuji Gen Gakki factory, which crafts the $2k+ guitars for Ibanez, so the craftsmanship is spot on. Definitely a nice investment.

Grand Total (From my pocket): $350
Most things were giving down to me from relatives, or friends.

Those are the important ones.

Also...

THE TENOR SAX IS FOR SALE!!! WHO WANTS IT???
If you're looking at this post and it was made before 2008, just ignore it.

Its a fun guitar; nice pickups and body structure. Even if it is a low end budget guitar. Hope to get a new one later this year.
