Quick couple of pix from 1992 when I was pretty into it.

Q: Were/are you in a band?
A: Yes, I was in a few bands, one heavy and one acoustic.

Q: Do you still play?
A: Weekly, if not daily.

Q: What's your favorite guitar?
A: Ibanez JS model, but I've always wanted an original Floral Pattern JEM.
Aren't you the guy w the 1st gen MR2? Great taste, and I've always liked the look of Ibanezs so finally got one a while back. Too bad it's my only axe. I regret selling some of my other guitars. I still dunno what I'm doing, I really need one w a thinner neck as my hands aren't big. Oh well.

Btw, this thread needs more pix so here's mine:

Haha, tell me about it, I used to grow my fingernails long and after that stage bought some finger and thumb picks. Think I still have them lying around (the picks, not my long fingernails lol).


Btw, what are you guys' fave guitars? I'm just going by looks. I'm not up-to-date on the latest but I recall being smitten by the PRSs, esp w the bird inlays:


Cool story about said inlays:
