Jupiter Mini Trumpet



This I bought from one of my friends in my law school days in Japan, getting some inspiration from great Don Cherry...
I have been thinking that probably I should change the mouth piece after trying out some and finding one for my thin lips.

1991 Fender Custom Shop 57 Stratocaster Mod. by Guitar Violence

Image
This heavy mod Fender Custom Shop Strat has been my main guitar for quite a long time. It's just that I invested too much on this cat to take it with me everywhere I gig. I mean, I would not be able to reconstruct in case of theft. Has 3-piece body and v-shaped neck just like Eric Clapton. It's not a Relic but is with normal wear and tear over twenty years adding a nice aged appearence to it. Yeah, I like how an aged lacquer face looks.

Ibanez RG540 Limited Edition

This is the first Ibanez I bought. After the application of several additional oil stain, it has this nice oiled mahogany texture. Only that I could have only 22 frets, this Ibanez could sound just right for me: Current 24 fret nect inevitably shift the neck pickup a little closer to the bridge, resulting in more muffled "half tone" (tapped bridge + middle) compared to the original Fender Strats. But we never know... Probably I could start a mod project with this guitar... I tried numbers of PU configurations on this guitar before I applied the best out of them to my Fender Custom Shop Strat. And I figured I like Bartolini V90S that is on this guitar also (the white PU in the pictures)
