I figured it was a good idea to post your bikes in the signature in order for other members to know if they can ask you specific questions about each one should the need arise. One big downfall however ... when you leave your computer on the web page open and the wife reads it to discover 3 bikes she had no idea I owned and stored at my mates garage. mmmm, frosty old weekend Wink

That's class.
I ran a handful of KTMs for a few years and as long as they were all orange and black the mrs was none the wiser. She never went in the garage and only rarely saw me ride away from the house so the numbers and models varied regularly.
Now guitars, they're much harder to hide as they're indoors.

Naw. I used to only keep about 3-5 out at a time and the others were in cases in the closet(s). My ex-wife never knew when I bought a new guitar because she didn't know what all I had in the first place (There was a time when I had 47 guitars and basses).

I think I'm down to about 15 or 17 right now.

I used to have the first website dedicated to Kramer Guitars and had a pretty nice representative collection from 1976-1990 models, both with aluminum and wood necks. I co-wrote an article in Vintage Guitar Magazine with Michael Wright in 1998 on Kramer guitars and had several of them in those issues (it was a 6-part series). I got laid-off from my job and sold a huge portion of the collection to pay a bunch of things off and get my cost of living lower.

This is my collection of amplifiers with my three George Lynch model ESP guitars....

I'll have to get you in touch with my back line engineers, they would love that. I am in SC 2 or 3 times most years, I'll let you know when.
