rmaynard 15,434 #26 Posted February 21 Great thread. As a child I played piano. Took coronet lessons in 4th grade for one school year. In senior year I took up the baritone ukulele. In the Coast Guard I played bass guitar in a band we threw together. Only instruments I still have are the bass and the ukulele. I always wants to play the 5-string banjo and be in a bluegrass band. Never happened never will. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 38,103 #27 Posted February 21 I took lessons as a kid. Never did become a musician but when I'm alone, I pick on my Martin DX1K Dreadnought. I'm not sure where my son Mike and his two sons Reed and Jake got the talent. Jake is a music major at Gettysburg College. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Playing music has always been my #1 interest. I am jealous of your guitars that you have had for my entire life, and the vintage Martin! I have done pretty well getting some absolute deals on amazing instruments over the years, so I can’t complain!! Hope to see some more people jump in with some pics! Where are the drummers?! I vote we get a redsquare band going! The Wheelhorses seems like an obvious name! I’ve been dying to jam some good old rock n roll with people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maz91 202 #29 Posted February 21 The top on that R9 is absolutely out of control. What a beauty. Oh man I’d love for a chance to crank up that jtm45 and play the main riff from all right now haha. Jealous!!! . On 1/31/2024 at 7:18 PM, Reddart said: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That JTM45 half stack is definitely my desert island rig. Though I mostly play my 10W Univox as it is more portable and has enough power for practice and small gigs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maz91 202 #31 Posted September 27 trying to revive the musical instruments thread with this ‘04 SG my uncle gave me as a wedding gift. This is a great guitar and very comfortable to play. Apparently whoever owned it before agreed because there’s a ton of cosmetic wear which I really love these days. It was recently refretted and it plays great. A while back I decided it’s kinda silly to have so much guitar gear and sold off a lot of it but this one is a worthwhile addition. Very very grateful. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
