I've been wanting one of these for quite some time and finally decided to pull the trigger. I found a really good deal on a Player Mustang in Firemist Gold. I am really happy with the playability of this guitar. Being an older player, the 24" scale makes it really easy to play with my achy hands so I'm really liking it. Being a guitar tinkerer I have mostly left this guitar alone. I had a set of Hipshot tuners that were not being used and since they are much better than the stock tuners I swapped them out. The other thing I have done is since the neck is a light shade of Pau Ferro, I have attempted to darken it some. Lastly, the Mustang sounds great through all of the amps I have played it through.

I was shopping around for an entry level Jazzmaster and found that Fender had a nice sale on the Squire 40th Anniversary model online. I knew the local shop had one so I was able to have them price match. It's a nice guitar for the $350 I paid for it. It certainly scratches the surf rock itch.

This one instantly became my #1 electric when I bought it in June:

That's a beauty, really stunning top!!!

I wish my PRS had the 2 tone 2 volume 3 way switch like that, and the separate tail and bridge!

My wife and her new guitar onstage with a cast of 1000's (or around 50, anyway). Her first time playing electric on stage, and she did well.

I love Jaguars, and I really love that color! Congrats on your new guitar!

I realize to my horror that I haven’t purchased an electric guitar since January, which is when this Eastman AR372CE arrived.

Truth is, I haven’t had GAS since then. My wife might disagree, but I should also point out that she wouldn’t let me sell my Ibanez AF95FM (in a couple of these pictures) because it was too pretty to let go.

I've had this about 4 months now, my seventh Gretsch - this one a G5422-12. Still in the honeymoon phase, which hopefully will never end!

Very cool guitar. I have a 2016 5622T on the way. Just this year I got my first acoustic 12 string. Now you’ve put more ideas in my head

The most recent , and one of my very favorites . A flamed Mahogany /Brazilian neck PRS Custom 22 triple soapbar trem .

The neck is the DGT profile ( thin and thick) A vast array of delicious sounds.
An unusual 5 way arrangement : Neck / Neck +Mid/ Neck+Bridge/ Mid+Bridge/ Bridge
