I generally don't take couch pics as my cat doesn't like being disturbed, also the wall with hangers works better. Now if someone starts a wall thread...

Our 575's might be cousins

Funny, it’s mostly obvious who likes blonds and who likes bursts.

I thought the same thing when I saw yours.

You were saying? :-) My couch isn't big enough for the blondes in my life.

Interestingly enough, my couch shot was 3 naturals and 2 bursts.

But I didnt include all of my guitars...if I had, there'd be 3 more bursts and 2 more naturals..

And a purple Danelectro

H575? I love Heritage hollow body guitars! What pickups are in it and what are your thoughts on it? Is it spruce or maple top?

I snapped this pic at a LGS, the owner had it commissioned by a local artist.

They're the Schallers with the 2 adjustment screws, don't know the model. They sound great, maybe a little dark for some, but hey, the amp has a treble control

It's a maple top. Reacts more like a laminate guitar plugged in, thunks a bit, very feedback resistant. Unplugged it has a pleasant tone for practicing, but it's no "acoustic" guitar.

EQ... Sigh a fact often overlooked or ignored by players that pigeonhole gits as "one trick ponies" :-)

Cool trio, sys.

Turning 65 next year, and here is what I have ended up with after 50 years of buying, selling, trading, on my working man's salary. 2014 The Loar LH700, 2008 Gibson ES175, 2017 Ibanez GB10 (MIJ), and a 1998 MIM Squier Telecaster. I think I've got all my bases covered, so I don't need any more guitars, right?

Nice herds in this thread!

Yet I can't help but think of Malvina Reynolds 1962 song 'Little Boxes', aka Weeds Theme Song:

Little boxes [...]
Little boxes all the same.
There's a pink one and a green one
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.

-I'd rather go to the corner store / Than sing 'Hosanna' on that golden shore. - Malvina Reynolds
