Here I'll show you "99 guitars" at any given time on a rotating basis. These are guitars that I have personally owned (except these two tasty morsals. These belong to George Lynch! This was a great photo op though!). Each will have a brief summary of the guitar. Most of these guitars where purchased through various newspapers, second hand stores, trades or eBay. Some will be rare, some will be cheap, but all will be genuine!
ca. 70's Gibson SG (modified hotrod). Very cool Gibson I purchased in a 2nd hand store for $350. Came with Bartolina Hi-A pickups. Refinished in black. Just was one of those great guitars you hated to part with. MADE IN THE USA...."Stay TUNED"

I knew I wanted to play guitar once my brother told me I had to hear this guy he just heard on the radio. "...his name was Stevie Ray or something...". I immediately walked to Tape World in the local mall and bought it unheard. Thank god I was introduced to Stevie Ray Vaughan in 1983. My world changed that day. I then started taking lessons with my buddy Frank. We jammed in the basement to Zeppelin (no Stairway To heaven) and AC/DC with some friends. I had the opportunity to see SRV live 3 times. Starting in 1996, I had the privilege of meeting Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton of "Double Trouble" several times with both Storyville and Kenny Wayne Shepherd. I have fallen in love with 1,000's of different interpetations of guitars I have been lucky enough to come across in my life. I look forward to many more...
