Those are the ones I have pictures of. Now just a sentence or two about each of them.
The PRS is easily my favorite electric. It was the most expensive, but the sounds that I can get from it make it worth every penny. it also plays like a dream! The Eric Clapton Martin is my favorite acoustic and as mentioned above is nicknamed Wolfie (after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart). The other Martin acoustic I have is known as I Miss You Wolfie because I got him when Wolfie had to go in for repairs one time.
The Parker Fly is the lightest guitar I have and I actually keep it on my bed and play it nearly every night before I go to sleep. An interesting thing about the Parker guitar is that it is able to be used as an acoustic and an electric AT THE SAME TIME. It comes with a special jack that splits in two and can be plugged into an acoustic amp and an electric amp simultaneously.
The 12 string is a cool sounding guitar, however it has a very thick/wide neck which makes it a bit more difficult to play than the others. The Backpacker, too, is a neat guitar that is also tough to play. The reason for this is it's shape. It is hard to hold the guitar in a comfortable position for playing. However it is nice to have on road trips or camping trips.
You'll notice that the Gothic Explorer is mounted on the wall. The reason for this is that it is the heaviest guitar I own and is in fact so heavy that it is actually uncomfortable for me to play for an extended period of time. I don't use it much anymore, so that it why it sits on the wall.
There are only a few more to talk about. The two basses will be first. Neither of them were supposed to be mine initially, oddly enough. The Ibanez was my sister's, but she didn't use it much, so it found it's way to my house. The Galveston was my friend's, but he decided he didn't want to play anymore, so he sold it to me.
I bought the ukulele because I basically got up one day and thought "I want a ukulele." :-p It is a fun little diversion from playing the guitar and probably should practice more with it.
That only leaves the Peavey and the last "generic" acoustic. The Peavey was my first electric guitar. The unique thing about it is that there was an amplifier built into the guitar case. I'm really not sure what brand of guitar that "generic" one is, but it is worth mentioning because it was my very first guitar. It was given to me by a family friend when I was around 9 or 10.
Whew, I think that is it.
LEGO sets, guitars, sports cards, memorabilia, pocket knives, and fridge magnets. Oh my!
