My main electric guitar is a red Fernandes. Unfortunately I have no
idea what year it was made. I bougt it used and I can tell its been
around. It's got a really nice sound to it. I use a Marshall MG 100-FX
amp. It's a solid state. I would rather have a tube amp but this was
only $300 so I couldn't really turn it down, especially as my only
other amp at the time was a small Fender amp that had these built in
effects and rhythms.

I also have a Frankenstrat. It's a heavy beast, obviously not an
original because you can tell how the serial number and Fender logos
are stuck on, but still, it's a solid rig. Unfortuntely I put too
heavy strings on, 13s I think, and it started pulling the bridge out
the body. It has some nice pickups and winding pegs.

Finally, for electrics, I have a Lyon by Washburn. Model L115 that I
keep really light strings on for when I want a song with mega bends. 

I have a Republic resonator which looks exactly like Mark Knopfler's O
style National guitar. It looks like the one on the front of the
Brothers in Arms album.

There's also a First Act accoustic that I got for $15 :)

For other kit, I have a few keyboards, low end Caisio and Yamaha but I
recently upgraded way beyond my league to a Korg Kronos workstation. 

Then there's the drums. A friend was selling some cymbals and ended up
buying his kit for about $250 so now I have 2 kick bass, 4 toms, 2
floor toms, snare highhat, and about 6 cymbals. 

If only I learned bass guitar, I could do a one man band recording
lol.
