Hey guys,
Kinda bored on a Saturday night...so I thought I'd post ...Got a silly question for you guys w/ multiple guitars (All of us, I think !!). Now I know that we all have our favorite axes, but I'm wondering if you have 1, absolute 'main' player. The guitar you play, say, 90% of the time. I know that those of us in bands may have many instruments that they play for different tones or tunings, but that's not really what I'm talking about. All things equal, do you have 1 axe that is 'THE' one you grab regularly?
I ask this because I've seen a few posts recently about 'favorite' axes, so I asked myself this same question. I used to use 2 Ontario Bolt-ons as my 'Main' players when I was last in a band, but I would have to admit that I rarely played them at home (and actually sold them both this past year). I've found that I really don't have 1 main guitar, and my favorite changes all the time. I do tend to play one guitar for a particular time frame, say a month or so...But then it's back in the case, and I have a new favorite for awhile. Lately, my most played guitar is my '83 SD Checkerboard. For some reason, is sounds great though my Boogie, better than most of the others. But, to be honest, I've been playing a few guitars lately, here's a pic of the current 'rotation':
(Sorry for the crappy pic...I need a new camera !!)
So, if someone said to me that I could only keep one axe, I don't know that I could make that choice. What about you guys, could you, if forced to keep only one of your existing guitars, make that choice? If so, which one would it be? And while your at it, post a pic of your fav !!!!
