There are pics of all of them on my Instagram and a YouTube video covers each of them in detail, but that might be from before the EBMM happened. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

 

[Ed Seith]

I'm gonna guess your Dad or someone else in your family also plays?

Just one: are the ebmm necks as nice as everyone says they are?

 

[Alicia Willis]

These are my ladies. Ovation Celebrity, Schecter C-1, and Fender Strat (player series). Their names are Baby, Ruby, and Sage

 

[Ed Seith]

Holy shit, yes. I wouldn't mind if it was thinner, but it's shape is because this is their Strat SSS. The roasted maple is so butter it's crazy.

You should be able to as long as the image isn’t too large. If it’s not allowing you, try adjusting to a smaller image size If your phone allows for that.

Yes! My dad.

Well I guess I know what my first USA made purchase is going to be...

 

[Cooper Brady]

Thanks Alicia! Here they are. I'm saving up for a US made EBMM JP15. But yeah the red one is my first guitar, a Schecter Omen 6 FR. Aside from some issues with the tremolo (it's the Korean made bridge) it's a great guitar. The pink/purple one is also an Omen-6, but with a hardtail, so I can play in drop tunings. Also amazing. The acoustic is a Teton that I got for my birthday this year and I swear, it feels like a 2000 dollar guitar, not a 650 dollar one.

 

[Gemma G.S.]

Here are mine! I have a little Fender jazz bass that my friend gifted to me many years ago (which I need to play more).

An Epiphone Special II, which was the first electric guitar I ever bought, also from a friend.

And then there's my pride and joy, my SG Custom-S in Satin Gold Burst, which I named Delphine.

I can't say just how badly I want a goldburst. Sick axes!

I gotta say, even if I didn't play guitar, I'd probably have saved up to buy one just to stare at it. Such a beautiful instrument, dude. My teenage dreams were made the day I got my hands on that beauty.

It's gorgeous. I can sense we had/have the same teenage dreams

 

[Ed Seith]

Man, times have changed. My teenage dreams had nothing to do with guitars, and I'll just leave it at that.

Kindred spirits, dude

Oh I had plenty of other ones... but I'll just go ahead and leave those where they are.

 

[William B.]

Hey guys, what brand makes the upside down neck? On my electric the head points down, which one points up? I heard/read it made a difference, can't remember the article. I think it was about Jimi Hendrix

My battle axe is a Solar E1.6 FBB. I got it last october, and I count it as my first real guitar. Before that I played an Ibanez Gio GRG121DX, but I sold it. My Solar is everything I need in a guitar at the moment. It is pretty heavy (probably heavier than any Les Paul), but well balanced, neck is thin and flat, but not too thin or too flat, the stainless steel jumbo frets are easy to play and won't show any serious wear in a long time, the locking tuners + evertune system is just a nice quality of life improvement on tuning stability, as long as you don't switch tunings all the time (I keep it on Eb standard, with some excursions to E standard, so evertune stays set up in Eb).
The Seymore Duncan Solar pickups are nice and warm, and I'm getting a lot of tones out of them that I like. Recently I'm going mostly for Slash-like tones. If I'm ever getting a Les Paul, I might switch the Solar pickups for fishman fluence modern active pickups, and go full death metal with it, and use the LP for Hard Rock tones instead.
But yeah, thats my babe.
