That's a great collection, Edward!  Looks like you've got all of the bases covered.  In addition to your R. Taylor 12-string, your Les Paul Goldtop caught my eye; what year is it?

Hey Tim
Thank you sir!!  That GT is an 07 R4...love it!  My LPC had gotten lots of play before I discovered this R4 and it has since stepped in as the go-to guit, along with the red strat. P90s and wraptail goodness!!!! :)

Very cool!  A few years back I stumbled onto an all-original 1973 Goldtop in very good/excellent condition; I'm pretty happy with it, as you might imagine.

Today I had the opportunity to play one of the Collector's Choice Les Pauls (#5 "Donna"), which as you probably know is an exacting reproduction of a particular vintage Gibson Les Paul, in this case a 1959 model.  Very impressive-sounding electric guitar!

Craig:  didn't mean to overlook your collection!  Your Custom GS in Mun Ebony is a real jewel!

 After seeing some of the incredibly impressive collections of guitars earlier in this thread, I am almost embarrassed to share this photo of my modest little family. They ain't much, but they are mine.

2013 Taylor 314ce
2015 Martin D-18
1982 Martin HD-28
2004 Fender Telecaster
2010 Martin X-Series
Mid 80's Sigma DM-3

^^^Cool guits, man!  Not to mention your tele could be my strat's fraternal twin! :)
There's no "keeping up with Jones'" here ...we're all just sharing the love! Suffice it to say we're all uber-fortunate to be able to share such beautiful "family" pics!  :)

So Tim,
an all-orig 73GT, eh? ...pics man, pics! :)
Yeah, those Gibson CCs are pretty amazing, to be sure!

Christhee68, I don't see this as a comparison thread at all, but rather a thread to show how happy one is with their guitar or guitars. Your family is just as important and impressive as the others, like you said, because they are yours. They all make music and that's what we are all trying to do. Nice fam! Thanks for sharing.
