Guitars, mostly. My son has two Fenders, I have my dad's Gretsch and a D-45 lookalike that I built in an earlier life (it finally was fitted [I believe that's a word] with a pick-up after twenty years, which has meant that my son stole it from me (he has all the amps in his room). I have forms and lots of tonewoods sitting around for more guitars, but the world came in through all the doors at once a while back and I haven't been able to take up the luthier hobby again. Having a hard time finding "home".

There's an alto sax on site, too (son's great on it, I can manage a tune, but sadly he gave it up when he discovered girls and guitars), and a whole lot of other stringed instruments, either inherited or built from kits. One ceramic flute. Did have a bamboo sax from Maui, but the dog ate it.

It's going to be a heck of a band, soon as I get out of jail and find a new dog and replace the pickup truck that got hit by the train just before I opened the "Dear John" letter and then tried to drown all my sorrows. Might work in E-flat. Can't hurt to try. Maybe use all six strings.
