I really dig how oddly specific and unusual that collection of guitars is. Very cool.

Thanks! Always had a think for wacky guitars

Updated...



I need more hangers

L- Rhoney/Warmoth Partscaster
R- Very modified Vista Jagmaster

Installed the Staytrem arms this weekend. They now have Straytrem arms and bridges.
Both have SneakyT guards too.

Top is CV Jag. Bottom is VM Bass VI.

Jag looks killer! Nice burst, black pickguard gives that 70s vibe.

Thanks. Was going for the 70's vibe on both.
Wasn't satisfied with the tort guard on the Jag so went with black. VI has a parchment guard to match a 1971 Bass VI I saw online.

current crop of offsets

My collection is small compared to some others that have been posted, but I've never wanted to have too huge a collection of instruments anyway, nor do I have room for one...clockwise from top:

Alvarez folk-body acoustic-electric, the one I've had the longest of all of these
Paul Reed Smith SE Standard 24, my guitar for songs with whammy bar parts
Stellar Venus 003, cheapest instrument I currently own; originally bought for C# standard songs but now in a weird open B5 tuning
Tokai Love Rock, my primary instrument; bought because I couldn't afford a "real" Les Paul, but one day I will get one
Fender Blacktop Jazzmaster HS, newest instrument and only "true" offset I own*, for C# standard songs

All are stock save for the JM, which the previous owner replaced the stock bridge humbucker with a Seymour Duncan Invader. I may replace the pickups in the Stellar as well.

*the Venus is kinda an offset, though you can't really tell from this angle

Here's my offsets:



Offset Telecaster
VM Modified Jaguar
Jaguarillo
HH Mustang body w/ locally-built custom neck

I've run through quite a few others - FSR Am Special Mustang, MG-65, MG-69, CV 70's Jaguar, Affinity Jazzmaster, Bullet Mustang... can't keep them all, though.

That Jagmaster with the Mustang trem is super cool!! I've seen lots of Mustangs with Jag tremolos before, I think this might be the first time I've seen the other way around. Works really nicely!

It's a 62 AVRI Jaguar, at some point I matched the headstock to the body colour, OTM.
