There is still one missing from this picture as it's in the process of being reassembled and possibly refinished. Haven't decided yet.

From left to right:

2014 Epiphone EJ200 CE
2021 MIM 2CS Vintera '57 Stratocaster
2010 MIM Black FSR Stratocaster with SD Fully Loaded Pickguard
1997 CiJ '62 Stratocaster vintage white (weight 6.4lbs)
2015 MIM 60's Fiesta Red Nitro lacquer Jaguar with rosewood fingerboard
1997 Squier Pro-Tone Solid Ash body, translucent "sapphire blue"
1986 G&L Lynx Viking Blue
2014 EJ200 Artist
2015 Classic Player Jazzmaster 3CS with rosewood fingerboard
2023 Fender Custom Shop 1 of 1 Blue floral with Journeyman relic'd finish

Not shown:
1984 MIM Stratocaster Black with rosewood fingerboard standard SSS pickups. This one was rattle can sprayed and I'm trying to remove all the krylon paint which I got most of it off. Then I'll be wet sanding it and going through a full buff. If I can't make it look how I want, I'll remove the poly finish completely. If the grain looks good, I'll do a 2 color sunburst finish. If the grain looks like shit I'll do a custom color like LPB or Charcoal frost.

Update as of tonight. There's my Hello Kitty strat out in the front room but this is the proper squad I'm left with. Down from a peak of about 30+ guitars to 5 electrics...

I've been getting my new space in order. I put up the double wall rail last weekend. I still have to put up some shelves for my pedals, so I can get them out of the cardboard box. I'm already at capacity though, and need to clear out some guitars to make room for future additions. The top row are all self built, which overflows to the bottom, which has parts guitars like my Jag and JM, a few vintage Japanese, and a few Squiers.
My acoustic is in the living room.

I was restringing a couple guitars today and had my fretless bass out and was messing with it, and thought, what the hey, let's take a picture, it's actually sunny here so there's nice light. I did some downsizing guitar-wise a couple years ago, I had too many, and I'm really happy with where I'm at...I have a couple different 6 string electrics that sound distinct from each other and that I really like (the JM being the primary guitar) and then a bit of everything else to mess around/record with.

Left to right:

-Eastman E-6OM
-2007 72 Tele Thinline Reissue
-Parts Duo Sonic-92 Body/1966 Neck-this Duo-sonic was my first real guitar bought new back in the 90s, I played it a ton over the years, but really got over the short little neck, found an old 24" Duo-Sonic neck on reverb a year or two ago and this guitar is terrific now
-2005 MIJ P-Bass
-2006 MIM Fretless Jazz Bass
-61 Jazzmaster (old refin in black)
-fairly recent Gretsch Electromatic 12 string

...haven't posted my BroncoMaster in ages.
I chaned the knobs to sorta match the old DiMarzio pickup

I fucking love that guitar

Covering up a nasty route for extra pots in its past...

What's the deal with that neck? Looks like a repro of a 70's Jazzmaster neck.

Jep it is, i had that one made in Mexico

Thought I'd update my Offset collection. Well, most of it. Missing a Squier Bullet Mustang, a backup Squier Bass VI and my JMJ Mustang Bass.

The CIJ 2006 Jag is a new arrival. I've put Creamery Alt 88 Mids in it, and replaced the pots which were shot. Used a drill to widen the holes and had to order new knobs. All working well

I've decided to keep the Vintera Jag (I was going to sell it when I got the CAR Jag) and make my own Jag version of the Gold Foil Jazzmaster. Can buy what I believe are the same pickups from DV247 (Roswell). Will get a pickguard cut that keeps the lower switch plate to turn on and off each of the three pickups, and will also have the PG extend over where the upper plate is and have a single switch like the Player series Jags, and use that for the bass cut. Keep the wiring nice and simple, and along with the routing for the pickups should shave 4-6 ounces off the weight, which would be helpful.

It's a bit messy but here's the bulk of 'em (this room doubles as my home office). Out of frame are a small-bodied nylon-string La Patrie classical guitar, a “Vintage” small-bodied Paul Brett Signature acoustic 12-string, a 12-string Guild J30 acoustic 12-string, a Chibson J200 copy, a Chartin parlor guitar, a Kawai Magnus Speed Demon, a Schecter Corsair (that I'm selling), a shell pink Squier 60s CV Jag (that I'm also selling), a Gretsch six-string banjo, two Chickenbacker 360Fs in various states of disrepair), and a home-made electronic drum set. I'm also waiting on a custom 360F build from Harry White.

I gotta thin some of this out...
