Picked up another Jackson (DK2M) to play while my Fusion project gets wrapped up. Spent yesterday putting my shocks back together and cleaning the guitar up (another neglected pawn shop find). The standard Ohlins DFV lower cups actually make great neck stands for tech work

Nice pics. I just saw this thread. I play acoustic guitar pretty badly and mandolin very badly. I do enjoy it though. A bunch of friends have a weekly jam.
Love those telecaster shots - I can hear the rockabilly coming through the internets.

I play guitar more than anything, although my original instrument was drums. We have a kit, but it was one we bought for our son ... wanting to get a better one for me later again, but space, time, etc Plus, I can be more quiet on a guitar when I need to

I have NOT played nearly enough in the past few years and am trying to change that.

For electric, I tend to play the Epi Les Paul in the picture below, connected to a Line 6 amp, the most. I have an older Ibanez (meh) as well. For acoustic, I have an Alvarez acoustic/electric.

It would be great if my passions could generate revenue instead of just expenses

Just a POD HD500x into an Alto TS110A PA speaker. It's loud enough to comfortable jam with other people, but still sounds great at low volumes. Doesn't feel as nice to play on as my old Mesa DC-5, but it sounds better most of the time and gives me way more tonal options without pissing off my neighbors. Still struggling to dial in a great low gain tone, but I mostly play metal so it's not a huge issue.
