Here's mine, which I'm very happy with 🙂

What have you got recently?

Can't see anything, plumber.

Mainly Telecasters. The latest is an 88e Harley Benton I bought for the body. Played it and liked the neck. So filed the nut, set it up and it plays so well I can't possibly strip it for the body.

Don't play much now but I still have my Fender MIJ Hot Rod Reissue strat... Same as the middle one here:

Also a battered korean Squier Tele, which is nicer than the us Gibson SG it replaced, funny old game.

That's lovely, that. I think the pickup holes would bother me but then it needed the scratchplate gone to make room for the detail work... Quite jealous! My tele is just black with dents.

I'm just going to assume the marks on the body are genuine wear and you haven't had it "relic'd" because if you have, I shall have to be rude at you.

OOooooh nice!!

No pics, and no particular order:

Ovation acoustic (30th pressie from Mrs B)
Yamaha SG1000S, mid Eighties, main gigging guitar
Fender Jaguar 60s reissue (Japan) which I'm selling 😉
Gibson 'The SG' '78 which is the most played at the moment.

Have a '64 AC-30 under the stairs too .. I'm more of an amp fetishist than guitars!

EDIT:

i bought one of these in november (the white one)

Same as mine - have you changed the bridge/saddles yet? Worth doing I reckon.

Currently want a Telecaster to add to the existing collection of fairly basic and cheap guitars:

Cort X6 (second guitar, in need of some serious TLC currently)
Ibanez GRX720 7 string (also in need of some serious TLC)
Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Top in a fetching blue burst finish

A 1988 left handed Gibson SG bought from new, and a Mexican Strat. Fender Pro Reverb Silverface Valve amp from some time in the 70's. Yamaha FX550.

Presently looking for a Rickenbacker 330/360 in left handed for a reasonable price.

Here's the Harley Benton. Apologies to Chrissie for murdering the vocals (an octave lower with a cold) and Billy Bremner for murdering his solo.

Guitar on both mikes. The amp emulating a 65 Fender with some Jonny Marresque settings. My other Tele has an ashtray bridge which I'll have to add at some time as I normally hook my little finger under the ashtray as a reference when picking.
