guitar age.

Post by burker » Mon Jan 08, 2007 10:34 am

Just came up with this poll after reading  zvihago's birthday thread, it got me to thinking, are theyre others who are younger than they're favorite guitar?
I guess its kind of a stupid poll, but I'm bored and sick (infected spider bite) so I have nothing better to do than post this.

I have a 2004 CIJ Jazzmaster and a 2006 AVRI Jazzmaster, so I've got them beat by 24 & 26 years, respectively.  My ES-125, however, has me beat by 17.

Mine is a 2006, so I'm quite a bit older than it.

I guess I'm the old guy here. Mines a 65 but I'm 12 years older than that. Guess ya'll missed the pop festival era.

My 66 was my fav and main, it's 12 yo than me but lately it's the 04 jaguar that i always play.
Having said that,it will no doubt change when i get the 66 refreted.
So i can't really answer this accurately.
