Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
I think the camera lens (wide angle?) distorts some of the guitars towards the edges. Anyone else seeing that?
Great pic.

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
That's a massive collection and I'm sure it's not the complete collection either.
Notice no Category5 or Budda amps etc. |

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
Anyone know if the Flying V or any of the Bursts are '50's vintage?

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
Thats just a fraction of his collection, more vintage ES's SG's Strats...
I think the V is an early 80's reissue. Awesome pic |

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
That definately won't be his full collection.
I'd get lost knowing which guitar to play on tracks if I had that many. I'd love to see his collection of pedals too. |

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
He certainly looks like he has a club for every shot, hard to imagine and kind of scary there are probably guys out there with more who have just been doing it longer. Gibbons looks like one who might have a warehouse full as well. Great pic it would have been no easy task just getting this shot ready.

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
Hole. Eeee. Shit.
Excellent collection. He really prides that Flying V. That was the best tone of all the guitars I heard him play, just slightly outpacing his signature goldtop. Funny that I thought the goldtop sounded better than either of the R9s that I saw him play. |

Re: Joe Bonamassa Guitar Collection
Where is his Gold Sparkle Strat? The Gold Sparkle strat is my favorite of the guitars in his collection.
Also last time I talked to him he told me he has a bunch of Gretches including an old Country Club. I know he just bought an early 70's ES-355 |

I'm not a CPA, but my guess is this is what happens when you can put the stuff on your income tax.
