Guitar player? , What model do you own or play?


Just wondering if there are any guitar players here, including the once-every-third-weekend-for-5-minute types ?

What make or model do you play?

Plus some miscellaneous other funky old guitars, lap steel, little tube amps. Only acoustic right now is a 70's Yamaha dreadnought, but want to get something better/more interesting again, plus a half-decent classical. I'm mostly a hollowbody/combo-amp kinda guy, but used to own a Marshall 50-watt master-volume half-stack, Ampeg SVT, and various other solidbody guitars and basses. What I'm not is a Strat/Tele/Les Paul kinda guy -- I like 'em weirder and lighter weight, with a vintage rock'n'roll, rather than "rock", sound and look.

Oh yeah, here's a few "ones that got away" which I dearly wish I still had:
'39 Martin 0-18 (mahogany/spruce, 3/4 "concert" bodystyle)
'58 Gibson Les Paul Jr. (cherry, double-cut, 1 P-90)
'60's Ampeg Porta-Flex B15 (flip-top, lighted plexi)
