Super versatile, great for anything I throw at it. Only downfall is that it has that strat single coil sound, but thats also an upside.

Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitars
My first guitar that was ever mine first. I had the lotus and it started getting old and worn. (It was a hand me down after all) So I took my christmas money, went to guitar center, and picked up a brand new Squier Tele. I had always loved the Telecaster body shape. I play this one alot, cause it sounds good both clean and with distortion. (Its also the main guitar I use for recording.)
This has become my main traveling guitar, going out, recording on the go, anything to that effect. After playing it so much however it does need a bit of maintenance.. but not so much to the point its unplayable. The built in tuner is also a huge plus. I use it almost strictly acoustically except for the few times I've recorded with it.
Its my nicest sounding guitar I think. The body type and shape is amazing and the tone is really rad,
I got mine for 120, its cheap and doesn't sound amazing but it has the most sentimental value out of all my guitars for reasons I won't elaborate on. Its my tribute guitar.
My first guitar. Helped open me up to guitar playing. Mine was a hand me down and worked well for a while. Kinda broke down on me but still playable.
Effects Pedals 12
Its the sound I've been trying to get for a while. Its knobs allow you to dial in the perfect tone for your project. Lets me beef up my strat really nice. It really excels if your guitar has humbuckers though, its quite loud.
sounds really good when mixed with the crybaby. other than that its just a basic simple distortion pedal we all own lol
Great for live vocal effects, not ideal for recording, I prefer using vsts, but its perfect for a lossless live modulator.
I picked up mine at a mom and pop shop that has since closed down, I jammed with it a little bit in the store and got it for dirt cheap. I was comparing prices between loop pedals and this was like... 50 or 70 dollars? Surely beats 100 for a boss loop station. Sounds just as good too.

I got this for 20. Its extremely clear, minimal to no distortion whatsoever. Plus crystal clear vocals. Keep in mind I'm running this through a line 6... and it sounds great... I bought this on a tight budget and I got WAYYYY more than I paid for with the quality.
Yeah its basically just a cheap pickup in a tin can that you build yourself but its not bad. I was going for Les Claypool type of thing and this gets close I suppose. And even if it doesn't its still a decent product for 20 bucks. I would probably recommend this if you want that kind of sound but (like me) can't afford a harmonica microphone at the moment.
I use this to record my vocals. WAYY to expensive but it works well.
Amplifiers 6
This is a crazy good amp for its price, I use my pedalboard mixed with the preloaded effects for things like phaser or autowah. My top amp pick for jamming, doesn't get much better than that lol.
I use this for my drum machine, for some reason this is the amp that sounds the best with it.
My first guitar amp, I now only use it clean or with the preloaded effects for my mic.
Bass Guitars 2
As of now I'm getting a new one, a 5 string castle rock. But this thing is fantastic for what it is. The action on mine is a bit higher than my liking but that can obviously be fixed. Great bass, love it.
Keyboards and Synthesizers 5
My first synth, not disappointed. Tons of sounds packed into a small package.
I got mine a while ago and its a very convenient and lightweight way to produce beats! It has built in presets for whatever DAW you use and for the price you really cant beat it.
Drum Sets 1
Strings 6
I use these for most of my other guitars, they're just easiest and most accessible so its what I use.
I use these for my Epi LP. Gives a nice warm tone.
Either way I use these for my squier mustang, which I have converted into a tribute guitar. The strings sound decent for what they are and they look great.
Music Accessories 6
Headphones 4
The best and most comfortable headphones I've used to date! I've used them to record my last 2 and a half albums and the quality and bass is exceptional. Highly recommend.
Drumsticks 3
Studio Equipment 7
I bought this one specifically because its the kind my favorite band uses. I was not disappointed, even if you cant write drum patterns yourself, the presets on this bad boy make up for your failure. I use it to jam, write songs, and everything in between. This is the most useful tool in my rig, easily.
I use this to record my live guitar and sometimes live bass on bandlab.
DAWs 3
I use this to record all of my songs. My early ones relied heavily on drum machines and synths, 2 things that bandlab has a multitude of at the ready. I've used this for literally about 95% of my songs. The preloaded effects, midis, and the fact I can record live guitar over midis and more realistic sounding samples is simply amazing. This is the backbone of my music.
Software Plugins and VSTs 1
I use this on maybe 2 songs? Never to correct my voice, mainly just for comedic effect. Super good vst.
Other Gear 4
Was my first ever stringed instrument that was ever actually mine. Its what made me love guitar and music in general and what caused me to branch out.
