Futurama, Danelectro and Musicman Basses.

Following on from Chris Thomas’ previous “Guitars on a bed” photo, comes the latest in the series - “Basses on a bed”. From top to bottom, we have a Futurama short scale bass (previously owned by Gerry Taylor, Bassist for Stealers Wheel), a Danelectro Long Horn Bass and a Musicman Sterling.

Yes, the song is correct; some guys really do have all the luck.

Modded Jackson JS20.

Justabitindie sent in this photo of his Jackson that has been ever so slightly modified, but we’ll just pass you over to the man himself…

“I’ve sent in my Jackson JS20 before.. but not like this. It now has a Strat neck I took off of my Squier Bullet because I prefer a thicker neck when playing those masterful melodies. The volume/tone controls are also off the Squier.
It’s nothing special, but I hope some of you enjoy it. :>”

Gibson RD Artist.

Brian Towell posted this beauty on the Guitar Porn Facebook page last week and we thought it would definitely benefit from a wider exposure. He says “Not every new guitar Gibson introduced in the 70s was a disaster. Check out the almost sensual lines of this seventies giant: Gibson RD Artist ‘77 in natural maple. Still playing like a dream, and sounding like a rainbow.”

Washburn HD-335.

Another one from Chris Thomas, who says “My Washburn HD 35 bought in 1990 with my student loan, main guitar in My Finest Hour (Reading Uk 1991-1993).”

The guitar stores in the UK would go bankrupt if it wasn’t for the Student Loans Company…

Acoustic Guitars by the bed-load.

Chris Thomas (AKA jammy-git) sent in this beautiful selection of acoustic guitar porn reading from top left to right; Martin Eric Clapton Signature, Tanglewood, Gibson J-200 Emmy Lou Harris, LAG nylon string,  Takamine Santa Fe (Ltd Edn) and a Fender Resonator.

Mystery Electric Guitar.

Kathy sent in this unconventional looking guitar and has a request for you folk;

“Can anyone shed light on this little lovely? Bought years ago as an unfinished project (needs routing & wiring), and as yet haven’t managed to find the right tech to help achieve that. PU’s will need to be slim/surface mount as even Str*t ones are too tall without cavities being routed, & the body depth is quite slim.”

Can anyone help out, or even tell us a bit more about this Pi-like beauty’s past?

Fender Telecaster, Tanglewood CSN Dreadnought and Epiphone Les Paul Special II.

Wemakeourownmovies sent in this beautiful selection, saying “My Springsteenesque 2008 Tele, a great sounding 2010 Tanglewood CSN dreadnought and a 2006 Epiphone Les Paul Special II with a Bigsby and new pickups”. The Epi really suits that Bigsby, doesn’t it?

1976 Swamp Ash Strat, rosewood finger board, hard tail.

Here’s a timeless beauty from Mike O’Boyle, originally purchased when brand spanking new in Brooklyn, New York.

Rickenbacker 360.

Phil Radford sent in this beauty and tagged it with a line that will be overly familiar to us all - one of almost enough guitars.

It’s a disease that we have. A beautiful, wonderful disease.
