Hey Phil, nice guitars!

I dread to think how much you pay on insurance for that tidy little lot!

Nice music shop. Whereabouts is it?  :wink:

Seriously, that is an awesome guitar collection. I think you've got just about every base covered there.

Thanks everyone.  I have been collecting guitars for over 25 years now.  I have had the rosewood strat since 1983.  I am lucky in that I have a room for them all, but they have to be in their cases in cupboards, so this was a great chance to get the all out and play!

Phil,

What's the purple one? Not a PRS, surely, since it has a Wilkinson trem and a five way blade switch. A custom build, perhaps?

I have a few more accoustics and bases...... and yes some more electrics too   :oops:   As I said, I was buying guitars for a long time, I have had one of my Ovations for more than 30 years now.

Hi, it is a Warmoth with a rosewood neck and ebony fingerboard.  It has a Fishman/Wilkinson bridge and a built in Roland synth pickup kit.  It has the megaswitch 'P' model to give the PRS combinations on a 5 way blade switch.  Mr Smith asked Warmoth if they would change the shape of the body a bit, but this is one of the original ones and fits in a PRS case perfectly!
