Now i know there are those on this forum with a million guitars, and that's fine, but I think i still have a fairly impressive collection, especially considering the budget, which keeps getting bigger :(

Anyway lets go, here's all 11 together
Image

The price for all these (plus a few extra things bought at the same time) £1500 ($2400)
And i made that rack myself :D

Image

The acoustics "Pablo" and "Tequila!" - Ibanez SX60 and Hondo II H180A
Image

The 'Affinity Trinity' "Javier", "Vandal" and "Jeremy"
Image

Three main grunge guitars "Stone", "Japan" and "Black" - Westfield E4000 bought because of and named after Stone Gossard of Pearl Jam, Fender Jaguar HH and a homemade Strat built from a random £5 body and internet sourced bits, wood and cardboard, with one of the hottest pickups i've ever played
Image

The miscellaneous section "Mike", "Burst" and "JEM" - Encore superstrat got for free from a mate and butchered to hell, Jim Deacon ST57 with some random bridge humbucker and an Ibanez JEM555 with locked trem (bodged in the garage of course)
Image

That's all the guitars, if you're interested i'll go into more details on the Squiers on a thread in that section, but now the equipment.

First, there's the pedals - Dunlop Cry Baby, Behringer Ultra Metal, Line 6 Crunchtone and Behringer Digital Multi-FX, with the amp switch on the right. I generally use either the Line 6 alone or in combination with the gain channel on the amp, on either the low or high gain depending on whether i'm using feedback as part of the tune. The effects pedal mostly stays on chorus for that watery sound like on 'Come As You Are', but often goes to delay with fast repeats and long decay for a huge, spaced out reverb effect. The amp is set to half reverb all the time except for the occasional song that needs sudden stops. I'm also looking to add a Boss DS-1 or DS-2 in the near future.
Image

The amp - trusty Marshall Valvestate 100. This is the 8100 model which is a tranny amp but with a valve pre-amp, so it sounds like a genuine valve amp but isn't as costly to repair when it gets dropped

Well that's all folks, thanks for taking the time, and if you have any questions or just want to say how much it's making you jealous and is totally awesome then please do, i'm a really keen technician so i can answer pretty much all your technical questions about my stuff, but there's nothing complicated to talk about really.

Cheers again and keep rockin'.

Thanks guys.

As a total cackhand i was pretty proud of myself for making that, obviously my dad was watching over my shoulder to make sure i didn't glue myself to anything or cut my fingers off, but still, i'm happy. Plus how many guitar stands have better carpet than the room it's actually in?

Not too shabby at all, however there is a very glaring omission in your collection.
No Teles.
That is your next assignment for next class.
Get a Tele.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

Yes Sir.

To be honest, i've never found the right one, that's all. I prefer the feel of Jags but they are much more expensive and rare than Strats, and i really mainly buy cheap stuff.
