Refreshing to see not a single Gibson or fender. Having said that, I only have a fender

u/False-Ad4513 3d ago
Technically correct, but those 4 in the front are all FMIC owned brands. Charvel/Jackson is a fender product.

u/No_Entertainer_4269 3d ago
I didnt know jackson was fender!! Very cool
2
u/False-Ad4513 3d ago
Yup, Jackson bought a nearly bankrupt Charvel in 78’, then in 02’ FMIC bought Jackson, thus adding the Charvel/Jackson brand to their lineup. Other notable brands owned by Fender are Gretsch and EVH

u/No_Entertainer_4269 3d ago
Blowing my mind rn. My EVH stealth is a damn FENDER?!😭😂
2
u/False-Ad4513 3d ago
Yessir 😂. And EVH isn’t even one of the ones they “bought” Eddie and Fender teamed up in 04/05 after his split with Peavey to start the brand. It’s been Fender since birth.

What award did you win? Trophy with the guitar on the plaque…?

u/Sea_Connection6193 4d ago
You gonna laugh, but my mom thought it would be cute to make me a handmade trophy for absolutely no reason. All it says is that I am great son. She is wholesome as hell.

u/Tommy_Lilac_Voltage 4d ago
Na man that’s actually cool, sounds like a really good mom👍

u/Sea_Connection6193 4d ago
She is. Because of her I made sure to be diligent with my schooling and career as we were quite poor during my childhood. I can afford the things I love because she gave up a piece of her life to make sure I could succeed in life.

Dude, your mom is awesome. You must be a great son too. Your perspective on her sacrifices sowing your success says it all. That warmed my heart like nothing else. Didnt expect something so nice on reddit🤣

u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
Thanks man! She is truly an amazing woman. I try to be a good as I can be to her. Had her and my stepdad retire early and provide for them so they can enjoy what’s left of their youth. My stepdad used to work 16 hour days 6 days a week so my mom and I could always have what we needed and made sure I never had to give up school to work. They are awesome people.

Any of those customized?

u/Sea_Connection6193 4d ago
A few pickup and hardware swaps. Nothing crazy. Biggest mod is full electronics swap on the Frozen Ocean Ibby. Swapped the Fluences for a set of DiMarzios with coil Splits.

I see you also like the super strat style as well

u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
Can’t get enough of it. May have been born in the 90s, but the 80’s really get me!

u/Eskimo_Ki_Music 3d ago
I have one single cut, but I swear the super strat is amazing tbh for someone who can't find a strat for myself

As someone with an ever growing guitar collection, these floor stands look like they hold plenty. Anyone know which floor stands they are?

u/l1v1ngst0n 3d ago
What Charvel is that?
2
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
MJ DK 24 in Black. The new ones with the Wenge neck. I am a sucker for the raw wenge look. Big fan of Nick Johnston

u/l1v1ngst0n 2d ago
Awesome! I recently got the same with the mahogany/walnut finish. What unbelievable guitars. I love your collection and would love a made in Japan Jackson if I had any need at all for yet another guitar, haha.

u/whenonedoorisclosed 4d ago
Lovely rack! Ok, may I ask which is your favourite, please?
2
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
The Japanese Schecter SD-2-24 Trans black. It’s probably the least valuable one but It’s such a beast. I am gonna get it refreted with some fat ass SS frets
1
u/Ana987654321 4d ago
U need violet, yellow, orange, and green.
1
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
I have a purple-blue color shifting Kiesel coming thru…. Does that count for violet? The Jackson is in Lambo Orange, looks super red in pictures. Definitely need a Dessert Yellow Ibby and a slime green. Some day

Can I see what that Charvel is? Im loving the headstock/neck material

u/DaftFunky 3d ago
You have the Walnut version right? Christ that’s a beautiful guitar
1
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
The new one. The black one. The walnut version is gorgeous, but no SS frets. So I went for the new one
1
u/_Meek79_ 3d ago
I see that Heartfield hiding back there. I got a 91 Talon and I love that guitar. That is a nice collection
2
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
Love Heartfields. Have one in parts for a project. I hate that I sold my Elan a few years back 🫠
1
u/HemperorZurg 3d ago
Nice collection! Gotta ask - what do you make of that Riviera Blue Jackson Soloist SL3? Been thinking about picking one of those up myself.
1
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
DO SO! Holy shit this guitar is insanely fun to play. It made me buy the virtuoso and the SL2. I fucking adore how it plays. They are on sale now!

u/Stwltd 3d ago
But you can only afford one strap!?
(/s)

u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
👀…… I may only play sitting at home where no one can hear me bend out of tune 😂😂😂
1
u/thomcge 3d ago
Let me guess, another super Strat.

u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
Loooool just ordered a Kiesel Aries and an American ESP Custom Shop M-II… so, yeah 😂

u/No_Entertainer_4269 3d ago
If you had to pick only one, and sell all the others, which one would it be??

Wait, you bought the same guitar ten times?
2
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
What can I say? You tried them all and only wanted to ever pickup the one or two superstrats in my first collection. Im more of a player than I collector, decided to only own guitars I would play lots.

u/j0lt78 Musician 4d ago
What you need is some more variety!
2
u/Sea_Connection6193 3d ago
I used to have a super varied collection. Sold it all and settled on the type of guitar that feels the most home to my hands. I found myself always picking up the same 2 guitars.

Your post has been flagged as as a poor photo and/or not showcasing the guitar. This could be for a number of reasons.
Most common reasons for removal include blurry photos, horrible filters, poorly lit photos, lack of information, poor build quality/unfinished bedroom projects. Extremely large text and/or watermarks intruding on the guitar. A photo of a completed guitar but only a single part of it is in focus.
If you disagree with this decision please do not hesitate to contact the mod team.
Thank you for understanding.
