How many Epiphones do you own?

Well, since there's a lot of requests for people to show off their guitars, I was sort of curious as to how many Epiphones some of y'all own. I have this suspicion that many of us own more than 1.

So...how many do you own?

Re: How many Epiphones do you own?

'89 MIK LP Custom
'95 MIK LP Special DC
'99 LP Junior
'05 LP Standard
'05 (I think) Dot Studio

I modded the crap out of the Standard. Everything else is more or less bone stock.

(Edited because I forgot one.)

For the price of 1 Gibson Les Paul Standard
I am up to 5. There are at least 3 more Epis that I'd like to get. There are so
many beautiful sweet sounding guitars out there, I wish I had the time and the money to just travel the world seeking out and aquireing rare and wonderful guitars! There are alot of dogs out there, it's so cool to find a good one, you almost feel obligated to get it, especially if it's sitting in a pawn shop or somebody's closet. Guitars need to be played and polished and loved!!

Re: How many Epiphones do you own?

I'm at 4. A LP custom black, LP custom antique ivory made to look light Randy Rhoads, a LP classic quilt top in amber, and a LP standard plus top cherry sunburst. I want just 1 more, a Zak Wylde camo LP. Then the real deal when I can afford it.

1 - 2008 Alpine White Studio right now... but I'd like to have at least one more, would like one of the new reissued 59's. The problem is the wife, can't always buy what you want without getting into some trouble.

9 still, it was up to 20 at one time.

I'll buy one if it catches my attention but I am very picky about it.
