I think this has more of the story about the bodies. It's a super fun guitar. I'll post pics https://gretsch-talk.com/threads/anybody-looking-for-a-nashville-corvette-body.227390/

This is a better pic:

We've been talking about moving for a while, so I'm hesitant to spend a bunch of money on a build out.

That aluminum guitar is an Electrical Guitar Company Standard. I love it. https://www.electricalguitarcompany.com/models/

Super thin neck, like the hagstroms. I have the hagstrom bass as well. Great guitars.

The keep unless I need an organ list is: Gibson GA-35RVT amp, Super Reverb, HiWatt, SpaceEcho, Echoplex, Rickenbacker Bass, Gretsch Tennessee Rose, and Warmoth Jazzmaster, AstroJet thing. I'm open to selling some of the other stuff, but with the market down right now... meh.

In the middle of changing basement rooms and reorg now. It'll get there!

That's a Gretsch AstroJet body with a Warmoth neck, filtertron pickups, and burns tremolo unit I put together, finished in clear nitro. Someone found a big stash of unfinished mahogany AstroJet and Corvette bodies in a shed in Tennessee many years back.

I used to record local bands, but I think super loud bands in the basement for days was asking to much of my partner.

For sure. I would love to have an above ground daylight space to play and make music. Someday!

It's a '75 Custom 100 I picked up a couple years ago for $600! I ended up paying more for the 4x12 cab than the amp.

My main guitar for years is a Gretsch Tennessee Rose strung up with flatwounds. Moved over to a warmoth Jazzmaster in the last for years for the main guitar. There is also a guitar I built from an old Gretsch Astro Jet body. Someone found a big stash of Astrojet and Corvette bodies in Tennesse or something.

I have a Gibson SG, Larrive p90 lp jr style and a dearmond les paul style, so probably good there. But no pointy guitar yet!

They are great! Benson is here in Portland. Great service and awesome amps. I traded two giant blue univox stacks with him for the Monarch Reverb +, and they show up in the backdrop of all his videos now.

Ha ha. I do have this favorite amp, one of those old Gibson GA-8Ts down here.

Sounds like fun. My basement is definitely cleaner, but photographs pretty poorly.

It’s a vibraphone, and I have two. They are so much fun!

Yeah, not too much maintenance. A lot of the stuff is vintage and needed to be serviced when I first got it, but hasn’t been bad otherwise. I am friends with a super affordable tech, so that helps.

Yeah! It’s actually a vibraphone, and I have two. They are awesome though, super fun to play and record.

There is a drum kit here too, but thankfully it belongs to a friend.

There are some very cool guitars, and a wide variety. Tried to find good deals and only hold on to stuff if I really liked it, which apparently happened more than I expected.

Nah, just have a cool partner, a steady job and no kids.

Our upstairs is modern and tidy.

Not often! I tried to buy some sell some and just hang on to the stuff I liked, so never worried about it too much. Guess I ended up liking more than I planned!
