Whats your oldest instrument?

[wormmd]

'90 Washburn KC-40V in Woodstone Brown. I bought it sight unseen for $100 from a dude on craigslist (well, my buddy who knows guitar bought it because I couldn't get to where it was), and I couldn't be happier. Pics if anyone cares.

1960's Yamaha Classical that I learned to play on. My dad bought it from a pawn shop in the early 70's. It is in really rough shape.

I also have a 1880's stand up piano that was in my basement when I bought the house.

My Tom Anderson Pro Am will turn 26 this July. I'm going to treat her to a stainless steel refret by Tom in the near future.

 

[Walterson]

56 years old and still rocking....

 

[Garfish]

My oldest instrument is a 79' les paul custom. Best guitar i ever owned, using it as my main in c# standard

 

[DarthV]

1988 Fender HM Strat!

The bridge is shot (cheap metal in the licensed floyd rose), so it's pretty much in its case all the time now.

 

[Dayn]

An Ibanez RG2228, manufactured in 2008 as far as I can discern.

Yeah, I'm heavily into vintage instruments.

 

[s4tch]

This '87 RG560. Still 10 years younger than me.

 

[Ripper7620]

Washburn G20v:

Is this a photo of another photo or am I so drunk at the moment?

I know part one is correct, but it might be a trick question and the picture being of a picture and you being so drunk at the same time.

Yes.


Photo of a screenshot of a (digital) photo. And you're drunk.

1982 Burny LP custom... featured left



And it has not a single ding on it, unlike all of my other 2005 and newer guitars

1982 Ibanez AM205 which I just got last week, http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/standard-guitars/269823-ngd-1982-ibanez-am205-pic-heavy.html

Before that it was both my 91 540s7 and UV7PWH

If amps count then my oldest is my 74 Vibrolux Reverb.

68 martin d28. played to hell.

My personal oldest instrument is my '92 fender acoustic electric (same age as me), but the oldest instrument I use is a '72 fender music master bass my dad bought from Goodwill (yeah, you read that right. Goodwill) with intentions to refinish and flip for profit after he gets his shop remodeled. In the mean time I've been "enjoying" it's short scale and the "EMG designed" passive(?) pickup someone decided to cram in there.

Would love to see pics. Love old Martins.

 

[Trainwreck1446]

My Fender American Deluxe V Stratocaster. Modded it the hell out.

Man, i'm really sorry to say, but that made me cringe like hell. Keep yo vintage vintage.

F that. Guitars are meant to be played and if you want to change something on a guitar, regardless of age, give-r.

My oldest is this 1994 PRS 10 Top Custom 24.

Also - that Tom Anderson is exactly what I've been drooling over for years. I wish i could afford one identical to that.
