Any guitar playing Autopians?

If you play, let's see some pics your axes!

I personally have a 2003 Taylor 314kce summer ltd. edition. It's my pride and joy. Check it out here. How do you think a few layers of Natty's will look on that back?

Nice guitars.

I've got an Art & Lutherie acoustic with solid spruce top. It's just like the one posted in the pic here but its finished in cherry red. Nice rich sounding guitar with great projection and a great feel/touch. It's made in Canada by Godin guitars which are the makers of Seagull acoustics. My brother likes to play my A&L more than his own guitar which cost about 4 times the price of my A&L.

My electric guitar is a copy. It's Peavey copy of a black Telecaster.

Like this one:



I've also have an Ibanez Destroyer from about 30 years ago. It's at my brother's place. It needs a bit of work on the pick-ups but other than that it's in pretty good shape. Apparently these are worth a pretty penny now ?

My Destroyer looks eaxactly like this:



Enjoy your guitars.........Bob

I have a 61 (or 62?) Tele copy -- it the Fender Japanese version that I bought new in 1985. Haven't really played it much lately though.

Coincidentally, I've been wanting an acoustic to pick around on and just got this model delivered UPS today:

I guess it's no Taylor, but I was just looking for a $100 guitar that will play half way decent and this one got good reviews. It was really cold out today, so I'm letting this fine piece of Asian craftsmanship warm up in the box overnight before I open it.

I have a 1978 Martin HD-28. Once I figure out how to use my new printer/scanner I'll post a picture!

Used to have a 1942 Martin 00018-E, which was an unusual guitar. A smaller size, with a stock electric pickup. I regret selling it!

Here is a pic I just took today. My Telecaster and $100 acoustic . I just opened the acoustic today, and it still has the protective plastic on the pic guard (as you can see).


I know there are quite a few guitar players on this forum, and am surprised more people haven't posted...

Yep I'm one myself. Been playing my Jay Turser for about 5 years. I started out with the basics such as "House of the Rising Sun" and so on. I don't know what hurts more, learning to develop calusis(sp?) or using a rotary for the first time on your truck? j/k

Now I can play stuff like Godsmack, ZZ Top, don't know if any of you have heard of Esteban? I can play a few songs by him. "Green grass and high tides forever" by The Outlaws, some Zepplin and etc... Oh and Joe Satrani, few things by him, don't know if any of you heard of him either. He doesn't do much singing, if any, mostly just electric guitar rock.

As with any guitarist, we all have songs of our own we would like to get better at. Happy playing AR

I just got a new printer/scanner, and scanned a photo of my guitar. However, Autopia says my picture is too big and I don't know how to make it smaller!

If you want to see my guitar, go to the Autopia gallery.

My main axes and boxes are a 1974 Fender Telecaster with my trusty Fender Twin Reverb amp, an early 80's handmade Yairi dreadnought and a Kentucky A-style mandolin.

I also have a late 60's Gibson J-200, an early 70's Gibson Gospel...These are retired to home use only. I also have a few classical nylon string acoustics and Yamaha acoustics, as well as a few dozen harmonicas, mostly Hohners.

I was a professional musician for 10 years and played 160-180 gigs a year along the East and Gulf coasts from MA to LA. Made a few records and wore out a couple of vans/trucks along the way. Man...Those were the days!

I still play out now and then with friends who are still in the business. As soon as my daughter goes off to college (1 1/2 years), I'll probably start something up again...if I can find a good rhythm section.
