the current collection.

[GreatDane]

i've been doing some selling recently in order to get down to more manageable number for me (YMMV). Still have work to do, but i was taking stock this morning and thought you guys/gals might like to see it too. Hopefully you can dig it.

i'm very happy with each one of these guitars. they each inspire me to play and keep getting better.

Post 'em if you got 'em - what's your current collection look like?

Beautiful collection. How does the trussart neck feel vs the 59 reissues? I feel a trussart is in my future but I'm worried about the narrow neck.

What I find rather interesting is how many people that I know that have serious collections and each and every one of them has either a Charvel Model 1 or a Charvel Model 2 in their collection. Those pieces could be had seriously on the cheap back in the day. It is great to see that I was not the only one that has held onto them and also not the only one that knew that they sounded and played so well.

Some seriously nice hardware there, sir.

I love the look of that bass!

That aged Pelham Blue LP Custom is just too perfect.

 

[Bob411]

Very, very nice. I can't look at it and not think, that's a lot of strings to change Walter.

I wanted one ever since they were released and finally scored a relatively good deal on one. Its gorgeous in person.

Truth. Thankfully I like changing strings. I buy them in bulk so it cost about 1.85 a pack.

Sweet Jebus! Tell me about that Tyler Studio Elite...

I wish I had kept my Model 2.

that Model 1 was the first real guitar i owned. i recently took it back from a friend who I left it with for maybe 18 years. i was at his place and it was sitting there and he said, "i've been meaning to bring this back..." i played a benefit show with it not that long ago and it was awesome. i love the neck on that thing.

Beautiful collection. How does the trussart neck feel vs the 59 reissues? I feel a trussart is in my future but I'm worried about the narrow neck.

hey! the Trussart neck is a LP width 1-11/16" and is just a little less chunky than most '59 reissue necks I've experienced. no narrow neck here. i think the tele-types have narrow necks and some even have the vintage 7.25" radius, but this one is all Les Paul.

here's a clip i recorded shortly after i got the Trussart if you want to hear what it sounds like:

Sweet Jebus! Tell me about that Tyler Studio Elite...

hey there! that Tyler is one of the best guitars i've ever played. hands down. i sold my old Fender strat because of that Tyler. it's chambered, body is made of a wood called "Mamywo". Tonally it's got aspects of basswood, limba and mahogany, but it's really its own animal, IMO. i liked it more than the Alder Tylers I've tried. The neck is the best part of the whole freakin' deal - 1-5/8" nut width, very chunky, compound radius (9.5 - 12" i think) and with medium-jumbo frets and the most amazing rolled edges on the fretboard - almost feels like the neck is slightly scalloped. it's lightly sealed and has an incredible raw feel that is fast and smooth with zero drag.
