Rattle off your degas collection

Post by sambonee »

I'll start :
Alembic/musicman neck thru
Same bass bolt on
Same bass neck thru
Set neck chocolate brown les paul special
Sunburst Strat maple
ES345 - Mint green refinished
My "Ricky Degas" rickenbacher clone
I just gave as a gift a P-bass sky blue w matching heastock. Maple neck. Amazing bass.

Favorite's change from day to day. Easy to say that my Ricky degas or my 345 could very well be my favorites.

I have 33 guitars in my collection, but alas, only one ED, my acoustic GB-25 'Dove' (see avatar).
But...it's a beauty and sounds wonderful! :mrgreen:

I'm always looking, but mainly for the MIJ acoustics which seem more difficult to find locally.
For electric guitars my heart is really with the Matsumoku made instruments: Westone, Vantage, Aria Pro II...etc. Just outstanding quality. Luv 'em!

Truth is, if I bring any more stray instruments home, my wife will ensure that I walk funny for the rest of my life. :shock:

Aria Pro 2 are great. I've played some Vantage gear...not too shabby.

I too am looking for a MIJ ED acoustic...a nice one. Let me know if you find one for me. :)
