Got my '06 faded V back yesterday loaded with Lollar P90's, RS Kit pots, and Jensen PIO caps. Reckoned I'd post a pic but then decided to shoot a few of all my P90 guitars. All but the faded Jr. have the RS and Lollar mods.

L to R, '07 R4 Goldtop, '78 LP Pro, USA faded Jr.

Some nice guitars everyones got there. I'd post pictures of mine but it's just a cheapo first act from walmart. I could only dream of having something better. Keep those pictures comin'!
 
This is the only pick I have with any of my gear in it. Live shot from one of our shows.

ESP EC 2005. I used to have 3 of them for shows, plus a Jackson RR3, 2 Fretless Fender strats, my pos classical, and 6 and 12 string Ibanez acoustics.

I really wish I had pictures of my full rig in all it's ass stomping glory. I have am ISP Theta Full stack that is 1100watts of subwoofer laden beat down that is simply fantastic. I wish I still had a reason to play on it, but since the touring is done it's way to much for anything I'd need it for anymore.
 
Everybody has posted some real beauties. Especially like all the Martins and Gibsons. Here's my contribution. I bought this when I was 17 yrs old (I'm 45 now). I've had other and nicer guitars since but none have been "special" to me like this one. Recently decided my oldest daughter was ready so I passed it on to her. Hope it becomes special enough to her to pass along someday. I have 2 more kids. Dang, I need to go guitar shoppin.

IT'S A JUNEBUG...very nice looking mando...love the sound of the bowl back but they kinda slip away from me when I play... ;)
 
Here's one of my favorite's... great action and a voice like an angel.
Alveraz 60th Anniversary model 5051. Number 78

Mahogany sides and back,spruce top with laser cut Rosetta sound holes.
 
Ladies and Gentlemen...I give you Rosebud...I have waited 6 years for this instrument and let me tell you...it was worth the wait...the sound and sustain of the sound is incredible...there is no gloss finish on it yet...I will play it a couple of weeks then take it back to the luthier (Vince Pawless of Pawless Guitars) and he will tweak what ever needs tweaked then apply the final finishes...the stain on the face and back is too dark to my liking so he will lighten that up to show more of the grain of the wood...

Rosebud...

Thanks y'all ...

All my steels are solid cast aluminum (I did one for myself in Bronze) ...

As far as the pickups ...

I wind the bobbins with 38 AWG magnet wire to around 2 k Ohm ... and use horsehoe magnets that I build ...

Here's a set in black wrinkle ... in one of the first steels I cast ...

Jason Lollar and I started building the old style horseshoe pickups back in 2002 ...

But having 6 kids has cut down on my spare time ... so I'm not building anything now ...

But hope to when my kids get older ...

Some of my other work and vintage steels can be seen on my website ... Horseshoemagnets.com
 
WOW! That's a really clean build. Very very cool! I have Jason's regular p90 scatterwounds in all my Gibson's. I may try his underwounds in my R4 for that Sean Costello vibe. Fantastic pups.
 
My guitars are not worthy of beng photographed and put in this company.

My baby....The Rich Bich!

My brother has a BC Rich that looks like that... except for the ass end of it WTF?!?!

Very nice instruments...It would be great to get together...

I played a Martin just like that one and it was the best sounding acoustic guitar I have ever heard. Gives me tingles down my spine thinking about it.

This thread has given me the urge to go play mine. Three children took up a lot of my free playing time too, they're a bit dusty now.
