Subject: Show Me Your "Instrument"

this is what i have...

I have one of these

only an epiphone, because I'm cheap, one of these

http://i3.ebayimg.com/03/i/05/0d/e5/71_2.JPG

but a mexistrat, a hohner headless bass this dude left at my house once, and one of these

http://www.mercadolivre.com.br/jm/img?s=MLB&f=32978997_8344.jpg&v=P

also have a fender twin reverb '65 reissue.

http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:YONlc630hRcucM:www.fenderrhodes.com/img/models/amp/fender-twin-reverb.jpg

And it's signed by rick derringer! One time we opened for rick derringer and he wanted to borrow it to play with; I peeked up onstage and he'd literally turned it up to 10 so I thought he was going to blow it. but omg, he was so good. I just knew him from that one goofy hootchie-coo song but he's this amazing guitar player, lots of arpeggios, two-handed fretting, crazy stuff. so at the end all these girls are having him sign their chests and stuff and there I am holding my amp, all, dude, you have to sign this. it actually looks pretty good.

My baby, the Takemine I bought in Japan for a song...the one where the eq just caved in into the body..she's going to
the hospital today.

I bought this les paul studio jsut so I could join a band. "you have your own guitar?" "umm, sure"
http://usera.imagecave.com/kgilmartin/Guitars/gtr9-copy.jpg
this is a great bass I got for free from when someone abandoned their storage space.  it smells like pipe smoke.
it is the smoothest, greatest sound.

Oldie but goodie:
http://usera.imagecave.com/kgilmartin/Guitars/gtr2-copy.jpg
I bought this amp used for 10 bucks. then I dropped it down the stairs. it's permanently on reverb and sounds awesome.
it's a cool, chris isaak sound that I can't find anywhere else.

Old faithful. My friends and I still have fun with the old 4 track.
http://usera.imagecave.com/kgilmartin/Guitars/gtr8-copy.jpg
this is an example of not only bad amp storage, but also my sloppy cleaning habits. it's in the corner, next to the heater, under all my crap- fast clean up job when guests were coming at the holidays. time to drag it out!

Don't knock Epiphones--while they may not be the "real deal," I have a friend who also has an Epiphone Les Paul and I thought it sounded great.

Dang, you got a lot of instruments... :o

I'm too lazy to take pictures right now, but I've got:

A trumpet (a shiny silver Yamaha),
Another trumpet (a not-so-shiny lacquered Jupiter),
A piano (no clue what kind),
Spoons (the really cheap kind...no fancy silverware in this house! :D ),
Uhh...I used to have a recorder laying around somewhere, but I haven't seen it lately.  ("Lately" being defined as about 7 years.)
...and I guess that's it.

My main instrument's the trumpet, but if I ever find the time again, I may try to improve on the piano.

It is quite nice.

A complete list from me:

1. Fender Stratocaster with Amp
2. Acoustic Fender
3. Ghetto-Ass Learning Guitar. About A Third the Size of a Real Guitar, And I Tuned All The Strings to Low E so it sounds like 6 guitars.
4. Piano
5. Keyboard with basic effects and about 130 instruments and 8 percussion modes.
6. Accordion
7. Hohner Blues Harp (it's kinda like a Harmonica)
8. Cello
9. Bass Guitar
10. Recorder
11. Zither (weird, string instrument thing.. mine looks almost like an autoharp.
12. Flute
