I've been redoing my website, updating, etc. and decided to do a 'guitar graveyard' page with a single picture of as many guitars as I could that I once owned.

I'm sick I tell ya. There are almost 60 that I found, and there's several others I haven't found pics for. That plus the 40 currently sitting in the house puts it into 3 figures now.

Funny though, out of 100+ guitars, only 2 Fenders and one Gibson... still have the Gibson.

http://damon67.com/guitars/

The rest of the site isn't complete, but this part and most the music is... minus a bit of verbiage here and there.

Very nice, Damon. I forgot you had the GP. I would have liked to have tried it. Also, you are missing Idaho on your travels page. You need to remedy that.

Geez that red blanket's copped a hammering hey?

I notice Australia isn't on your list either. We'll have to do something about that Damo! (That would be your name down here...)

That's nicely done!

I've thought abut doing something similar, but the Missus has enough incriminating evidence to have me institutionalized already.

I am definitely out of my element here. My page would only have four guitars on it! Can you believe that from 1968 (that was a good year) to 2010 I subsisted on one guitar?? It was a small body Martin. I thought it was the epitome of guitars but my Adamas has spoiled me. I don't even play the Martin anymore -- it kinda seems like a toy guitar now. I do feel kinda bad because it was always there for me in good times and bad and now I have just abandoned it for another!

thanks guys, I've been working on it for some time.

Mark, you can be assured that one day there will be a Mini pulling into the driveway sometime probably not that far away.

Muzza, that's high up on my bucket list... but that's a lot of ground to cover! I'm thinking I need to do a roadtrip between Sydney and Adelaide... cuz that's where all the wine is! Any of y'all around there?

FYI, I just put a bunch of "Like" buttons all over the place. If there's a particular page you like, and it has a button, please let me know by clicking it... thanks!

 

Oh, and there's updated content too

If you drove from Sydney to Adelaide, you'd get to meet most of the regular Aussie contingent - except for AJ, the Wizz & me.

AJ - all those guitars... and he doesn't mind a drop of red.
Wizz - has the ultimate mancave/guitar workshop. And we're not talking bottom feeders guild.
Me - well... I'm not too far from AJ & Wizz

You forgot Margaret River in Western Australia, plus a few others. You could do the drive, which is about 4,961km one way.

Here's a rough itinerary.

AJ and I are no strangers to sharing a bottle! And it could possibly be another reunion for me as well. I can't remember which one(s), but I know at least one from the 'graveyard' page ended up as an AJ possession. I don't know if anything ever made it across the water though.

PF-22 maybe?

Hey Banjo, we had a bottle from Kingaroy last night. It's not on your map?

Us banana benders will have to just introduce him to Bundy Rum.

I didn't realise they made wine that far north. I also left out the Canberra region, mainly because the wine from my region is still improving.

Wow Damon. I've always admired your photographs, but seeing them all in one place makes me realize how badly I need to get rid of my camera.

Funny though, out of 100+ guitars


Nice work!

C2078LX Custom Elite 12 - I suppose, this is C2058LX... I own -6P version, she sings as angel, you're right!

Best!

Nice job, Damon.

Even the "Guitar Graveyard" is impressive…

Wolf, that guitar is STUNNING! I love white guitars. And black ones. Red too. I'm also partial to bursts. And man, those natural ones can be quite eye catching! 


But yeah, white ones are cool. I've drooled over those Custom Elites several times. 

One of these days I'll find a white UKII at a time I can afford to make it mine.

P.S. My Dad checked out the site and reminded me of a few more I forgot about, one of which was a Custom Shop Gibson Explorer.

So make that 2 Gibsons.
