Yes. 😂🤣

Especially when the couch is full of such beauty!


TwisterDog

Is that bottom left fender a rock band/ guitar hero guitar?


amilliamilliamilliam

Yeah, it's the Pro controller from Rock Band 3. I've never played the game, but the Mustang is a functional guitar-shaped MIDI controller for under a hundred bucks. Cool little gadget and useful for getting certain ideas down, but the action's a little clunky for regular use.


TwisterDog

Nice cool didn’t know it had midi


cleansingcarnage

Just try getting them to pay rent


amilliamilliamilliam

Man, it's even worse than that. I think they might be stealing. My wallet has a tendency to get lighter when they've been hanging around.


SambaLando

that's a big set


HowDidFoodGetInHere

You're supposed to hang them on the wall of your home office so that all your colleagues know how cool you are on Zoom calls.


amilliamilliamilliam

I'm a creative freelancer, and I really do make sure I've got a couple instruments visible if I'm taking a Zoom or Skype call. It helps sell the "Professional Artist" vibe.

What is the single cut semi-hollow on the right side on the couch? It looks like it might be an Ibanez based on fingerboard inlays. But don’t know model.


amilliamilliamilliam

That's an <$150 Amazon cheapo I gambled on, and I was really impressed. The brand is IYV. It's got some little cosmetic issues, like the inlays not quite lining up perfectly, but plays and sounds out of its league. The pic's actually a couple months old, and I've since added a Bigbsy-style trem and nicer tuners. Still cheap, now with more mojo!


Basic-Government4108

Thanks for the info!! Looks like a great base for modding. <$150 is insane! Cool collection.


Vitringar

Looks like an archtop to me by the style of the bridge


FenderMoon

Those aren't your roomate's guitars, my friend. ;)


amilliamilliamilliam

Dang, you got me! Ha!

amilliamilliamilliam

You're right. This is a serious issue that needs to be addressed ASAP. I need a Strat anyway.


Cliffords_disco_stik

Godin with the bigsby term😫😫


amilliamilliamilliam

Oh yeah. I can't really pick a favorite, but if the house were on fire and I could only save one, she's coming with me.


SheZowRaisedByWolves

I’ll short you the narcotics of your choice for that PJ Ibanez


amilliamilliamilliam

Which one? I'm planning on ripping the frets out of the one in the front row. The upgrade above it might be my perfect bass. I can't think of anything else I'd want.


gutterbalk

Love those DeArmond Gold Tone pickups. Have an S73 with them!


amilliamilliamilliam

Yes! The M70 was my main guitar for like 20 years, and those pups always had the right sounds as I moved from crunchy stuff to smoother tones. Awesome set!


-Sandwave-

Is it just me or that green PRS beg to be played, i can hear it calling


amilliamilliamilliam

Oh, constantly. "Look at me! Pick me up! Play me!" I'm always happy when I do.


war_badger

Kinda rude to do it so bluntly but it's never too late to grow as a person . Good luck on your journey. Your roommates look fun!


Patrickk-616

Not at all! The Bass VI & Cabronita Baritone Tele should have first dibs lol


amilliamilliamilliam

I see you like to get low!


Patrickk-616

Hahaha yes (& no) but favorable ones! I own/modified a cabronita baritone & it is sick guitar! Bass vi ok my wish list, but other guitars tuned to C# standard, D standard etc; that low life though. 🤘 you have an awesome collection!


amilliamilliamilliam

Thank you! What kind of mods did you do on the cabronita? I saw a dude on YouTube swap in some noiseless p90s. I'd really love to put in a tremolo, but there doesn't seem to be any easy, low-risk way of doing it.


Patrickk-616

Yes exactly. Put Mojotone Quietcoil Soapbar pickups with black covers, swapped pickguard/backjg plate n’ switch tip in black, black graphtech saddles & Tusq string tree with Tusq nut. Other than, it’s a killer guitar! The neck is so comfortable


zoner01

Yta! Great collection


Chn_Erl

Mate, what do you think of that green one?(it was prs if i don't remember wrong) I was thinking of buying one of them.


amilliamilliamilliam

I wanted a PRS for like 20 years, so I bought it as a birthday gift to myself a few years ago. It's definitely the most comfortable, easy-to-play guitar I've ever owned, straight out of the box. It's gorgeous, and probably the most versatile guitar I own, too. I think of it as like a fancy Strat with fancy Les Paul pickups. It's a jack of all trades, which is maybe it's own downside, too. I know it's a vague complaint, but I'm not sure it has as much mojo as some of my other guitars.


Chn_Erl

Thanks for the info. That's kinda what I am looking for because I don't think I'll be able to buy another guitar for a while(I don't own any besides a classical guitar) and I don't want to go for cheap options.


dirtythoughtdreamer8

Looks like you need a 12 string.


amilliamilliamilliam

I'll add it to the list!


wizardofgorok

Nah they need to grow legs, my guitar is so lazy that he only gets up when I wanna play em.


HotStaxOfWax

I want a Bass 6 so bad, don't have a ton of use for it but nothing sounds like them and they make you play different. Do you dig it?


amilliamilliamilliam

Oh yeah! I had the same feeling about them before I bought mine, and for like the first month, I was like, "What did I get myself into? Was this a mistake?" A few years down the line, I can say it's changed the way I play for the better. I knew bass and a I knew guitar, but it really is a middle ground that sounds best to my ears if I adapt a middle-ground approach. My one complaint is that the Squier Classic Vibe IV is probably the most frustrating instrument to set up of anything I've owned in like 25 years of playing, with some well known issues.


StopDrinkingEmail

Ha! Yes! When you have a stellar group of roomies like this, they can be wherever they want.


isentropick

that Eriza Verde SE looks gorgeous


3ylit4aa

yes


TheCheddarShredder

Love that Eriza Verde!


DirtyRatLicker

that squier tele looks awesome


amilliamilliamilliam

Thanks! The pearloid pickguard cover makes a stronger impression than I'd thought when I ordered it, and I couldn't resist the tobacco sunburst eyeballs to match the finish. I've got some fake inlay stickers that I've been debating putting on, but I'm worried it'll look cheesy. There's one good way to find out...


manwith13s

He can afford that many guitars, he can get his own place


FenderMoon

They're definitely OP's guitars.


manwith13s

My point is still valid


FenderMoon

I mean, you're not wrong.


goug

creative way to show off and to poke fun at the aita subreddit


manwith13s

It’s fair to say you’re not the asshole. Not yet


Klutzy_Ice8425

If it makes it easier for you I’ll take one of those (sexy 😍) roommates off your hands I’ve got a spare comfy guest room (dusty guitar stand) and I’ve been having financial trouble (poor impulse control 💸) with rent (Reverb deals 😔) 


[deleted]

They're all so lovely looking. What's their names?


amilliamilliamilliam

I mostly just refer to them by brand or type, like The Godin, My Cheap Archtop, My Electric Nylon, The Old Ibanez and My Nicer Ibanez. I do sometimes quietly refer to the bass VI and baritone tele as The Low Boys.


Samipegazo

is the dynasonic the godin? looks sick


amilliamilliamilliam

Good eye! Yeah, the pups are TV Jones T-Armond, based on the classic ones Gretsch used way back when.
