alainlafrance thanks for sharing your collection with us. and all the while I thougt you were a just a Fender aficionado. But you're a guitar aficionado also! A question is your EC"5" in Mercedes Blue, or did the MB stand for Masterbuilt? It looks like it has a hint of blue.

I don't have a one where all my gear is together that is updated, but here is my collection so far.

Collection (I don't have that strat anymore, and the fender acoustic next to the strat or the black 335 copy)

My 60 RI Strat

My Epi Howard Roberts

And my new toy, a Taylor 416ce Spring Limited Edition with Tazmanian Blackwood back and sides

Thanks! I play mostly acoustic stuff right now, and so now I play my new Taylor, but my Kingman used to be my No. 1 for acoustics. As for electrics, I believe my Strat and Gretsch tie. They both have different sounds, but I use them about the same.

deth your mission if you choose to accept it is to post a clear shot of that Teisco. I also have a '66 same model, that I am restoring.Some prior owner repainted it, and it just doesn't look right as a single colour. They also stripped the neck, and didn't refinish it, so I have my work cut out cleaning that up too.yours looks to be the original burst, I kinda want to copy it. I also need to track down one of those badges for the headstock.

Here's mine:

hey whats up, did you find a badge yet?, i see on ebay they are selling the whole neck and it has a badge on it

Performers surface from time to time
As their value is quite underrated, people owning them are reluctant to sell them
On the average I bought my five (one of each color available) at about USD 1000 each, all in 9.5 condition.
Because of their scarcity, their price will definitely increase as they are great guitars thanks to John Page who designed them

Both,both.
It was one of a triplet made "as for" Eric Clapton by the Masterbuilder Todd Krause.
It's Mercedes Blue; it's blue with a hint of green.
