I started playing when I was 14 on a cheap takamine acoustic, then I got an incredible Martin Acoustic. Now, at age 17, I play a Mexi Strat and a Hamer SATQ, along with the two acoustics.

I started playing when I was 11. Started on a Kay 3/4 size beginner acoustic. I'm 53 now. Played professionally from the time I was 19 til I was 35. Play the occasional semi-pro thing now while working a "real job".

There have been too many guitars, basses and other pieces of gear to count since I started playing, but what I use now is:

'74 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe
'90 Washburn D-12CE
'03 Gretsch 6120
'05 Gibson SG Special
( My Strat now belongs to my nephew as a graduation gift)
'96 Hofner 500/1 V63 Beatle bass
'02 Hofner 500/1 V61 "Cavern" bass

'99 Vox (Korg) AC30
'01 Genz-Benz ML200/210T
'05 Fender 59 Bassman

Use a pedal board with an array of miscellaneous effects when needed.

I started at age 11 on a cheap acoustic guitar.

Now, at age 15, I play a Fender Squier Stratocaster.


:) I love my guitars and wouldn't give them up for anything, no matter how pathic the ones I used to play are. I love my guitars. I am a Fender person for life.

Thank you,

I started playing when I was about 10 on an old Harmony acoustic which I still have. That was 46 years ago, and I use many guitars now, but mainly Strats and Teles. 8)
