I got my bass at last, this weekend. It's a black Ibanez, has been nicknamed "El Basso", and is pictured here alongside my Squier Strat guitar, and its Laney amp.

EDIT: Ooops. Probly should have put it here in the first place.

One of these guys:

Would be played through one of these guys:

but it's broken at the moment. Oh, and also this guy:

This is a Samick that I play. I haven't given it an official name yet, but I think I'll call it Emile. Featured alongside this shitty Yamaha and my father's Gibson acoustic from the 60's. He also has a Gibson SG bass (nicknamed Peaches) like they had in Cream, which owns. We have too much gear at our house. If I had talent, I'd be all set for playing in a band. . .

Here are my babies.
The old school acoustic is over a gajillion years old probably...
The electric comes complete with Decemberists sticker and yellow duct tape holding up pickup.

My super duper keyboard is also in the background on my bed.

I play a white DanElectro 56-U2 that I bought at a garage sale for 20 bucks when I was fifteen, works wonders for me.
Basically, this without that ugly green shit on the side:

Oh yes, I forgot! My guitar is called 'Krakkagar'. He is my secret scary friend.

Yay!

This bad muffuka...

Played through one of these bad muffukas (http://www.kellyindustries.com/guitars/images/fender_blonde_blues_junior2.jpg). (Fender Blues Junior)
I also have a Squier and an Ibanez acoustic/electric and a Squier bass, but that's all crap.
Images linked, as they are WAY too big. Kinda like your avatar. - Dan

It's a just for the hell of it thing.

I hope it's not only guitars forum :-)
Something blue:

With a little bit of Hammond in my life:

And a Peavay combo by my side:

Mostly producing good old hard rock heavy Hammond stuff like Deep Purple and Uriah Heep. Jon Lord forever!
-
Since I had to get rid of my drums ( :( )... alls I've got left is a methuselaic old Heinz upright grand piano and a yamaha PSR293 keyboard I've got hooked up to the Mac (garageband is awesome)
Should be getting a new(ish) telecaster off a buddy this summer

Again! Shock!

That's my piano. She's a good girl.

Squier Strat (starter) played through a tiny fender frontman and an old Sekova acoustic that my cousin gave me. (http://liquidtoast.net/gallery/details.php?image_id=24&sessionid=b0adeb616865236f284cff15b7f39b5a)
I've no real talent, I just futz around

KharBevNor, I like the wang bar on your guitar. It's a locking system, what type?
Here's my stuff.
The guitar: Circa. 1980's Epiphone Les Paul. A very nice guitar. Epiphone makes some really nice guitars, some not-so-nice guitars, and I got a great deal on this one used. The stickers are made by me.

The Amp
Fender FM212R. 2 12" speakers, 100 watts of useable output. However, I rarely use much of that. It's mostly for quiet stuff, although when performing I turn it up.
(http://img289.echo.cx/img289/402/dscf12765xy.jpg) (http://www.imageshack.us)
The pedals
Boss DS-2 Distortion. This thing is a beast. I love it to death.

Jim Dunlop Crybaby Wah. Smooth, like silk. Yum yum.

Rockin' the Ephiphone Beast:

Image taken off of eBay; the one I own has one less knob and a Distillers sticker across the large jutting part.
Amp:

It is not very large, and it doesn't have a footswitch, but it gets the job done.

Cory?

It's cause, y'know, I'd look pretty damn stupid rocking up rhythm guitar in my thrash band with one of these:
(http://www.guitarpeddler.com/d/Daisy_Rock_Guitars/Daisy_Rock_Electric_Guitar_513060.jpg)
I swear, I didn't even buy it because ICS Vortex of Borknagar/Dimmu Borgir plays one. That was just a wonderful co-incidence.
-
I beg to differ. Throw some EMG 81's or a Seymour Duncan JB in one of those Daisy Rock's and you'd have a hell of an axe. Pre-pickup swap it would be a little lackluster, though.
Me, I rock one of these:
(http://www.thomann.de/prodbilder/169087.jpg)
into either one of these (at college):

Or one of these (at home):

Through a few pedals, including my two secret weapons (cheap line of pedals, but HOLY are these two good):

Currently rocking my parts-built (albeit by the previous owner) red Strat fitted with lace sensors and a DiMarzio Evolution bucker in the bridge. I've grown quite attatched to it after some use. I'll try and slip a pic in here afterwards.
You should all know what a Black Epi Les Paul looks like after reading this thread, that's my second.
Into this...

Then through this...

All through this 100W 2x12 all tube beauty. It's my newest plaything :-)

That's my piano. She's a good girl.
Chuck, I'm sure by keyboard standards that thing sounds lovely - but please don't call it a piano. Pianos go "twang" and "clunk" and "plink" and all sorts of other interesting sounds because of all the strings and hammers and general mechanisms involved. Anything that doesn't do that isn't a piano.

My main beef with Dano pedals is that they're flimsy. I've played music with a variety of people, from acoustic performances to the full meal deal, but usually the music is loud and fast. And, as I found out one day, Dano pedals do not like their user jumping into the air and coming crashing down on the switch to turn them on. Snap, crunch, twist. One dead pedal. Also, I found that often the sound was hit-and-miss with them.
However, you seem to have gotten two of the good ones, if you're satisfied with them. :)
-

Well, considering that it is a digital piano, and the major features are touch sensetive keys and real piano sound... yeah it does clunk and plink and have the sound of hammers hitting strings.
-
It's not a piano.
-
It's a digital piano... now this debate clearly isn't going to go anywhere so should we get back on topic?
-
It's not a piano.

(with all due respect) WHO THE FUCK CARES WHETHER OR NOT IT'S A PIANO? if it sounds good, it sounds good. if it doesn't, it doesn't. end ov story.

Electric pianos = pianos, for all practical purposes.

Fair enough, but they can sound really, really good. The trick is to not take the term "stompbox" too literally...

my guitar, kind of. it's a cheap copy, but it sounds good. mine is white where this one is black though. well... it used to be black too, but i scratched off the paint...
and it's got a cute little plastic flower flower attached to it...

My brother is looking into getting one of those - he's already got one Carvin custom bass, he's trying to decide how many strings and if he wants a fretless or not.

Rockin' out in true German metal!

yeah, i'll be the dork to post something you play by blowing. she's my pride and joy and cost more than my first car.
I also have a Selmer Paris Signature clarinet, a 1955 Conn trumpet, and an Akai EWI with multiple things named Korg and Roland.

Thanks! Carvin custom's are awesome. I bought it used, but the abuse I dish it makes it look a lot older than it really is. It's a very sturdy instrument, and it's one of the few fretlesses I've played that has a real midrange punch to it.
