Almost Half of the Herd

[eltuce]

Sorry, the herd post made me want to brag a bit. If it makes anyone feel any better, which it won't, the Aristocrat suffered some damage the night of this thing. The case got smashed in a bit and the switch got smooshed into the body so it's time for an expensive-ish repair so it doesn't look like poo. Anyway, here's roughly half of the herd.

Why be sorry :?: :?: That's a terrific pic. Very cool stuff. Love all the art deco influences. What is the red solid body with the red/white candy stripe pickguard?

Dang; looks like the Arlington guitar show! :shock:

Red one with the candy stripe is a '61 Gretsch Twist Corvette. I'm still a bit angry about the damage to the Aristocrat. I have no idea how it happened.

Well, there's no way damage to one of your guitars is gonna make me feel better (like maybe since you have such a nice collection, you deserve it?), but that is a VERY IMPRESSIVE collection you have there. Sorry about the damage. That's HALF the herd? YIKES!!! :shock:

ALMOST half the herd!

Man, you need a bigger camera!

I did manage to get them all in one shot but you can't really see the ones on the chairs. I really needed another table.

If I may ask, what was the occasion that you had them all set up and labeled?

A friend of mine does an annual thing. This year was the 3rd one.
