My 1966 Fender Mustang, 100% original and worn in in all the right places.

Picked up this MIM Tele last year, and its been my main squeeze ever since.

I've always wanted a lake placid blue tele, but they dont come by often. It popped up on my local marketplace and I didnt even try to haggle, just asked the guy when he was available.

I used to have a lake placed blue strat that my dad bought me that I had to sell back in leaner times, so its nice to have a spiritual successor to that guitar now that I'm doing better.

@justhach @DuffmanOfTheCosmos I picked up this one recently and I'm really enjoying it.

I got this 1962 ES-330 from a former co-worker. He bought it new. He had brought it into the office several years ago, and the way it sang, I made him promise that if he ever sold it, I'd get first dibs. Well that day came 2 years ago, and it's mine now.

2012 PRS 513. It has so many tonal options, and I can’t get enough of the neck feel.

All mine are modern budget models. As much cool factor as there is to a vintage axe it's nice not worrying about parts and electronics (and nitrocellulose finishes!) that are older than my parents :-). In terms of sentimental value, nothing beats my first, a 2003 Squier Affinity I got for Christmas:

Also most of mine only have four strings for some reason???

Nothing wrong with budget models! Some of my other favorites in my collection are modern Squiers I've modified, they're great for customizing and making them your own!
