Is it just me or do those look a lot like the custom colour Jazzmasters that Chicago Music Exchange had for sale last year (well ... not all of them, but some of them)?

Dude I literally thought the same thing. Weird.

I don't think I could own that many Jazzmasters because I'd never put the Shoreline Gold down :? :?

Careful: it's equally likely to be a photo of hell. I don't see a guitar cable.

There is also no place for that Marshall amp in Heaven.

It wasn't Fullerplast's picture was it? I recall him having a similar setup at one point, but not sure there were so many offsets.

I think he had a basement & there was at least one Mustang. Could be totally wrong, mind you.

I also thought Nolan although he had far fewer guitars..

If all those JMs are original, vintage custom colour's the owners a serious collector. I honestly don't recall seeing this selection (or that lamp). Impressive stuff.

It does look like that CME collection at a glance. They sold 7 or 8 though, no? There's 13 there. Keep a few and take the wife on holiday maybe ;)

It's a low-end Marshall acoustic amp by the look of it too.

Or -- equally likely in the USA -- pay off some medical bills.
