Didn't we have a thread for this already?

Oh yeah, can't forget this one

Now, my dad's stuff gets a bit more interesting. A rather large assortment of old acoustic, electric, bass and travel guitars, violins, mandolins, etc. He got an accordion last year for Christmas, and this year he’s going to get some steel drums.

I guess you could also count his 4-track from the early '70s.

damn, thats quite the amp you have there! i have a little studio monitor for my keyboard

It's actually a bass amp, but it kicks ass with my keyboard all the same. I think I could actually get 7 or so channels of input into it at once, even if all I ever use are two for the keyboard.

Besides, I'm sure that first item you posted gets more than adequate sound.

Pianos, guitars, harpsichords, more pianos, clavichord, guitars and even more pianos and guitars.

Did I mention pianos and guitars?


Including a couple Bösendorfer Imperial Concert Grands and a five octave piano, built by Anton Walter. As well, as a 6 1/2 octave Graf, which was built by Conrad Graf. Both the Walter and Graf had to be restored. There is also a Broadwood and Erard, which also had to be restored. There are the Steinways, which the piano playinng hack known as Satchmo8101 demolishes music with.

holy shit! do you own a piano shop? if you ever feel inclined to give any of those away, i could probably squeeze one of those bosendorfers into my dorm room next year, if i take everything else out and saw down a wall or two.

how does the thumb piano work?
