Hi,
I had a 1967 Gibson SG Special (left-hander 'cos I'm a lefty) but sold it in 1975.
Used a r/h Fender clone for a few years and played it upside down, then broke it doing my "Who" impersonation.
I then got a custom l/h flying-V built, but sold it after a couple of weeks. It was a nice guitar and had a great sound 'cos I ran a pair of Humbuckers and DiMarzios, but the action was too slow and I needed the cash at the time (IIRC I needed the money to get the water pump and some other stuff done to the '25).
I used to have a 3/4 size nylon-strung acoustic but it eventually fell apart. It was a shitbox, but fun to play.
Now I've got a l/h Westone Thunder-II, which is pretty old now and I gotta fix a bad connection with the plug. It's a good rythm guitar. Also got a l/h Ibanez Series-II Roadster bass. And I've got a Valencia 6-string l/h steel string acoustic.
Nearly bought a l/h Rickenbacker Stereo Jazz bass, but it was too much for me at the time. And I and nearly bought a nice 2nd hand l/h 12-string Fender electric, but decided to wait a bit and when I went back to the store it was sold.

Not really. I just changed the bridge over and restrung it as a l/h. The controls and scratch plate were upside down but it was a nasty old guitar and it served it's purpose.
I also have an air-guitar and I can play it left or right handed!

I've got a Fender Squier I got in a starter pack. It's served it's purpose and now I need something better.
Also got this little Onyx guitar. Never seen the brand before but I got it off a friend for $50. It's got pretty good intonation and it played OK. It's only got 1 pickup in it and I just replaced on the weekend with and EMG 81. Sounds pretty good now!
This goes through Boss Metal Zone pedal and a 50watt Mesa Boogie amp.

i've got two bass guitars, squier p-bass, and a ibanez EDC700. The ibanez i'm pretty sure is quite rare as its in a deep purple finish which i've never seen anywhere else, other than that i think its been discontinued. its got a body made out of luthite which is kinda funky.

An acoustic yamaha, cost bugger all, but had an ok action and was great just to muck around on.
Epiphone (les paul style) which cost me nothing as I won it off video hits about 12 years ago. Only problem with it was that f*cker Jimmy Barnes scribbled on it, was easily fixed though ( Barnsie).
I think I'm probably biased as it's the guitar I really learnt on, but I love the feel of it. The humbuckers weren't too bad, but can be replaced quite easily with good ones.
I've been telling myself for the last 5 years that I have to start playing again, there's just not enough time!

i've had a few guitars over the years but at the moment i'm running a Samick V (similar to Spanktown's but in a marble finish) and a acoustic guitar i imported from argentina.
I have a 110w and a 80w samick amp as well as a PA amp. i used to daisy chain the amps together to get the fattest sound from them. That's when i used to play on stage.
