Your Dream Guitar Collection (Electric)

I have an Epiphone '56 Goldtop reissue with Fralin noise-cancelling P-90s, sounds great.

I bought an unfinished body and neck for a Jazzblaster like Lee Ranaldo but I can't decide what color to have it painted

Olympic white + a fancy pants tortoiseshell guard is a leading option:

but with shiny humbuckers instead of the ivory JM pickups

or charcoal frost, with either fancy tortoiseshell or mint:

Got my dream guitar yesterday. You’ll laugh at how modest a dream it was - I’ve wanted a mid 80s Ibanez Roadstar for years ever since learning that my all time favorite guitar sound, that on Meat Puppets’ Up On The Sun, was not Curt Kirkwood’s characteristic Gibson LP but rather a Roadstar he’d just gotten.

Been in the twin cities for over a week bc my mom is in the hospital and the guitar center in maple grove had a used one for $350 (cream color) and I drove her car out there and played it and loved it and bought it.

It’s not perfect (e string likes to slip off the feet edge a bit) but it’s perfect.

(Note: the other part of the up on the sun gtr recipe per Curt K was one of those Tom Scholz Rockman thingies - do they make some kind of clone of that these days?)

For $50k you can buy Vincent Gallo's Travis Bean bass

literally a "dream guitar" - last night i dreamed that i found online a vintage blue semihollowbody guitar, but with a headstock that was twice as long as a normal headstock with a hinge in the middle; i.e. the top half of the headstock could fold up. i guess the idea was then you could clip sheet music to this part? for some reason this made the guitar EXTREMELY desirable to me. i don't even read sheet music.

One you can file under cool as he11 but way too much money to ever consider actually purchasing is that Collings Julian Lage signature electric guitar.
