How many guitars/basses and amps do you have?  email this discussion to a friend?

It would be nice to know how big collection of guitars you have (drummers, pianists etc. are also welcome to respond).

I'm a bass player but since I started with guitar I have three guitars: two electrics and of course an acoustic guitar. I also have a guitar amp. I also have two electric basses and two bass amps. I'm saving money for a custom bass project (electric) and would also like an acoustic bass.

So, how about your gear?

I do not have any real guitars or amplifiers. I do have two game guitars that we play with though. We use them for Guitar Hero for the Playstation game. I hope you don't think this is too funny LOL.

Not at all, Guitar Hero is a nice game happy In fact, I think it actually helps in learning to play guitar, especially your left hand (or right for lefties). Of course real guitar is bigger and different in many other ways but it really might just help a little, especially if you're very good at Guitar Hero, you learn to go fast and accurate with you left hand happy

Wow! I've always dreamt of having a Gibson but since they are so expensive and I play bass now, I haven't bought one yet. They sound amazing! That's a nice legacy, wish my parents had a Gibson lol

hehe ^_^ I'm not into music and thus i dun have any musical instruments at home, not even a harmonica.. haha =D All i have in my lifetime, is only a recorder, which i'm 'force' to learn when i'm in primary school.. haha =D

I always like music from piano and guitar, thus i admire ple whom knows how to play them.. hehe ^_^ Especially guitar, it's always good for parties whereby one play and the others sing along ^_^


myLot reputation of 96/100. lronMaiden (497)   ranked 25 out of 296 in playing the guitar  3 years ago

I'm very much into music but I don't have a harmonica either lol

i just have the one 5 string ibanez ex series bass right now.
generic 15' cabinet with widow and and old mega bass pre amp.

i had to sell a lot when i moved coast to coast,and haven't got new stuff as of yet.
i'm kind of on break bandwise,i got sick of the drama llama.


myLot reputation of 96/100. lronMaiden (497)   ranked 25 out of 296 in playing the guitar  3 years ago

Nice! How much did you have before you moved?


myLot reputation of 99/100. scarlet_woman (11386)  3 years ago

well,at that time i had a gibson les paul deluxe (sold that,paid for my ticket)
a dean v hollywood,one other ibanez (4 string),and a loaned trace elliot bass head.

i'm glad i never bought that 8/10 cabinet i was looking at-not too shipping friendly.just sending back a 4/12 was like $125 at the time.


myLot reputation of 96/100. lronMaiden (497)   ranked 25 out of 296 in playing the guitar  3 years ago

I'd love to have a 4x12 they sound amazing! Also Trace's heads (some of them) are the best I've ever played happy


myLot reputation of 99/100. scarlet_woman (11386)  3 years ago

yea,i hated giving that up..
had to though,it was a borrow.

Heyya IronMaiden! I don't have a collection of my own but my b/f is a musician and has a few things. He has two acoustics, an electric, a couple of peddles, an amp, microphones, and computer software in which he can be a one man band..lol...oh and my daughter has a little acoustic..bongos...tamborine..and this little rattle thing that I like to play with when we all jam on the weekends...LOL..It's a sight.


myLot reputation of 96/100. lronMaiden (497)   ranked 25 out of 296 in playing the guitar  3 years ago

Yeah, I bet it is lol What kind of a musician is your bf, does he play in a band or just freelance kind of stuff?


myLot reputation of 100/100. JenInTN (10108)  3 years ago

He's played in bands off and on...you know how that goes..lol..He freelances when he's not. I think it's in his blood to play no matter what.

A guitar and a bass amp? Why don't you have a guitar amp? Playing guitar through bass amp or bass through guitar amp will damage the amp...

I have two electric guitars at my house, one twelve string acoustic guitar, and an acoustic six string that sits at my sister's place until I give up on her learning to play it. Also, I have an old Les Paul Jr. in peices that sits at my parent's house. So I guess that makes 5 guitar. 5!

I have three main guitars..

Fender Strat USA 82..
Gibson 335 Reissue 2003
Yamaha APX-6

No Amps at the moment as I use a Line6 Pod.. and hire/borrow a big one if needed.

I'd love to get myself a decent Tele and nice Precision and an Ibanez Gem but funds are low.

Kind regards, Spencer

Have a classical guitar, an electric guitar, an acoustic guitar and 2 amps. Only the classical guitar is really any good. Im too poor to get myself anything better :P the one amp is pretty good but need alot of stuff replaced on it as I bought it second hand. Family owns 10 guitars in total all of which I play on too.

I have 2 electric guitars (my first one, which is just a starter guitar, and my main one), I have a bass guitar, an acoustic/electric one, and a old beat-up classical guitar.

I have a couple small amps and a big 2x12 amp as well.
