OK, lads and lasses - no PBGs... yet, but you may sense a theme!
The two on the extreme left are the two inside guitars at the moment; a Vantage AV325 Avenger au naturel with P90s and uprated hardware all round: it also has an unfinished neck which makes it a honey to play! Behind is a Westone Spectrum LX, a H/S/H with trick switching and a locking trem - a great litttle all rounder.
Vantage VA10 acoustic, Vantage Avenger AV325 "Bougainville Avenger", (upright on table) Vantage Invader II, Electra XV-1 Lady, Westone X300PP Pantera, Aria Pro II U-60 Urchin, Westone XA 1630 Genesis II, Aria Pro II LC440, Westone Raider II, (flat on table, clockwise from top left) Westone 1012 Spectrum II, Westone CL4112 Clipper, Vantage AV 395 Avenger, Vantage AV310 Avenger "Corsair Avenger", Fender Stratocaster. (rack in front, l-r) Westone Spectrum ST, Westone Spectrum MX, Westone Spectrum GTBass, Westone Spectrum GT, Electra Phoenix X195, Commodore lap steel. And a Vantage VS696-12.
Most have been fettled in some way - witness the paint on 4 or 5 of them or had pickups changed out; uprated hardware on most - locking tuners, string trees, output jacks, pots and caps. The Corsair Avenger is a tribute to my father who flew the F4U-1D Corsair in the Pacific during W2; it currently has the neck off to have the headstock re-finished as I wasn't happy with the waterslide decals I'd done. It has a Tonerider ACII in place of the MMK 45 that resided there, and trick switching courtesy of Weirdbits: cheers, bro!!
My main gigging guitar for 25+ years isn't here; I have loaned it to a friend of mine for his collection; it is a Vantage VA900 thru neck, 24 fret monster of an instrument...
