6 string bass! Very nice! Very Happy

I play piano since I was about 7, but stopped that when I was 12. I started playing guitar about 3 years ago and got back into piano since. So I play guitar and piano!

Don't have a photo, but my axe is just a pretty standard red SG copy. I like it becuase its got a set neck and the fretboard is a little higher on the body, so every fret is easily accessable. I also have an Ashton 12 string acoustic and my dad's old classical which is an Ibanez.

Just for fun last night, my guitar friend and I made a noisecore style band to pay out emos. Its the best fun to just go drop d, thrash the hell out of it and play whatever the hell leads you want, screaming stupidity and making noise! I'll get a recording and post it next time we play!

Okay..
These are my main guitars:

Kramer Pacer Imperial
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b202/zacharyhietala/rock.jpg

Lag Rockline
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b202/zacharyhietala/feelings.jpg

Charvel 3 Strat
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b202/zacharyhietala/guitar.jpg

ESP Custom
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b202/zacharyhietala/fuckingsolos.jpg

Tokai Custom Edition Strat
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b202/zacharyhietala/Tokai.jpg

All the guitars I have are heavily modified.
Fingerboards are scalloped.
Neck angles are bended like Gibson Les Pauls, so I can state up floating Floyd Rose tremolo bridges.
I don't like the way they are mounted in guitars today, the bridges is in the body.
I use only 22 fret necks 'cause I'm not comfortable with 24 fret necks somehow.
Guitars have only pickup selector, volume and on/off switch.
I hate the tune knobs and middle mics, so I take them away.
Floyd Roses are adjusted the way I can take G-string up to fifth and all the way down.
Necks I use are glued to the bodies for better sustain, it's comparing neck through the body construction.
The mics, swithes and knobs are DiMarzio, the best.

All of this shit I have done by myself and paint work too, so thats the reason my guitars look like shit, but they sound like hell!
Zac

ps. If you like to show your equipment, you should put the link on pages, not the photos, please.

Zac, this guitar is absolutely legandary! How old it is? Is it the oldest that you're still using? "Feet in the Mud, Fist to the Sky!"

I figured out Photobucket, so I've got pictures of my stuff now. I was gonna add a short video, but it was taking too long, so maybe later:

My guitars, amp, and cheap effects pedals:
http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i153/kossiez/timsguitars.jpg

My electric axe:
http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i153/kossiez/ElectricAxe.jpg

Hopefully those links work!

BTW, There's a small space on that SG between the neck pickup and fretboard. It needs a re-string, so when I do that I'm gonna attempt a home job of sticking an extra two frets on it (making 24). Stupid, I know, but I can't afford a better guitar at the moment, and this one does a great job anyway! Has anyone here ever done anything like this? Any advice?

They all are from early eighties.
ESP custom is made from guitar parts, which they sell those days, Kramer Pacer I bought 83, Lag at the second album tour 87, Black Tokai Strat Special Edition about 89 and Charvel Strat is a gift from one of my old friend, who repairs and customize old guitars for hobby. Original model is from middle of eighties and I got it 2003, I think.

Haha, I play on some crappy cheap guitar, and I have even more crappy amps. But I don't see the point in buying something very expensive when I bought it for learning. I'm buying a new and better one at the end of the summer vacation Smile Just don't know witch yet. Let me go...

I'm in the same position as you... The guitar I showed up there is beginning to show it's cheapness as it's cracking around the input jack Sad Shame too, it has a really nice feel to it, and I love playing it...

I'll be buying a new one soon as well, just not too sure what brand to go with. Guitars are pretty expensive for no reason sometimes! hahaha!

If you haven't seen this before, this is Cinnari's set...

Sonor Signature set which was actually really expensive, but if you want the best, German handcrafted set will do.

Some photos with Paiste cymbals he uses...
