So, I still have my Les Paul and Blues Jr. but they are now my Dad's so will be gone when he picks them up. This is my current set-up, I guess as a, mainly, acoustic guitarist I like to keep it simple: Gordon Smith 1.60 P90 and Flynn Amps 5E3 Tweed Deluxe.

Nice, never come across Flynn amps www.flynnamps.co.uk/usatweeddeluxe.htmlGlasgow based, a theme there, just two guys Stevie and, I think, his son, Chris. Beautiful amps, check out the video on that link. I'm trying very hard to resist the hawk booster used on that too. I looked at a kit and building it myself, but going through Flynn got me a professional build, quality parts and a relationship with a guy where I can just take the amp in for a check up. Worth the extra for me and he's about 5 minutes drive away.

Nice. Used to watch Stevie Flynn play every week when he played with Jamie Barnes around the Glasgow pub scene. Great days

That's very cool Martin. Don't know if he still plays anywhere, he makes brilliant amps. Played a 15 Marshall JTM type clone, awesome but couldn't use it properly if you weren't gigging. Their 284 is quite possibly a better vox than a vox.

When I had a set-up it was a 335 and a Fender amp of some sort, plus a Boss Chorus pedal - there were only two of us and it filled out the sound somewhat. All I have left is the 335 - cherry red, nowt special so no pics - and, as I've mentioned before, that's on the way out soon.
Don't misunderstand - the 335 is a fantastic instrument, it just looks like any other cherry red 335.

I love 335's, only one electric for me though.

This is mine. I've always loved the simplicity of the Telecaster. Other than the original "sparkly black" with a neck humbucker, this has been matt/satin black with red scratchplate (my tribute to Wilko Johnson). Now this! Blackstar 5w tube amp, great fun!

Faith Jupiter, Seymour Duncan Woody XL, Behringer B205D on a partly home-made stand. Lovely jazz tone for the island's swing band, Cordon Bleu.
