I imagine forumite Gabriel may be the one most interested in this newest of guitars in my possession:

I've been quietly giddy about this thing, my recently acquired Peerless Manhattan I scored for about $600.

Out of all of the non-solid top Peerless jazzbox models I can score rather cheap over here (Monarch, Jazz City, Manhattan), I really wanted the Manhattan in particular because of its huge 17" width with no-nonsense (no gaudy inlays) neck, 24.6" scale, floating mini-hum, and a surprisingly comfortable 3" thick body. The guy who had this one before me put on Thomastik-Infeld 13-53 flatwounds and has the action down on it nice and low, so it's really effortless to play all day. Will probably add a tone pot to soften the amplified tone a bit, but am having just as much fun sitting on the couch doing wannabe bossa nova progressions with the thing not plugged in.

How did you know

That's a lovely guitar. I was considering one for the Â£800 they cost over, but $600 is a no brainer! What kind of shape is the neck?

It's a nicely robust C, most reminiscent to me of a '62 Strat's thickness with a wee bit more "D", and with the 1.7" nut barely widening just to 2" over most of the accessible neck, my little girl fingers wrap around the thing with little difficulty. And yeah, me being the country of origin, it's practically a shame how these lovely MIKs can be found for so cheap.

I got it for a good price on ebay when the seller made a typo and listed it as a 'Kagstrom'.

Don't you love it when that happens? The same thing happened to a guy selling a Vistalite floor tom I got for real cheep

I bought lovely Tokia SG a few years ago. I also bought a Fender Jaugur for a song.

Who are you and what have you done with Tim's grammar and ability to spell?

I just did a frantic search looking for a Fender Jaguar ebay listing with typos and all I could find was some car parts: 'Jaugur engine and box'. Merde.

@Stewart > Yeah, that is a little MarineRider guitar from Japan. It was small enough to fit into the overhead luggage compartment in planes.

That rack is awesome! Did you make that?

Just went through every page, and it's done nothing for my GAS.
Particular highlights included....
-I'm sure I saw a Mustang with block inlays?
-The guy who 'bound and blocked' a neck himself
-The Guild S-100
-The Brown Maplestang
-Pretty much every brown or dark green guitar
-Fender Arrows and Coronados

I'll see if I can proper snaps of some of mine soon.

With having to leave my guitars with my Dad to look after whilst we are in China I got something that I have wanted for a while in order to not leave their house littered with holes in the walls for my wall hangers: a multi guitar stand. Here are the 7 that made it onto the stand:

(l-r): Legend LP, Seth Baccus custom LP, '68 RI Strat, CIJ Jag, Jag-Stang, Squier CV Tele, Yamaha APX10.
