Here's another try with imgbox
The one nice thing about moving into my own place is get to arrange it however the fuck I want. Its a typical tiny San Francisco space and I feared I would only have room for a couple guitars and a small amp, but as I've been moving and arranging I've found I have more space than I realized.
Thanks to this rack I forgot I had, I'll fit 3 electrics, a bass, and an acoustic in the "guitar nook" I'll also keep an acoustic on a stand in a different part of the room plus one in the bedroom. That's like 7 guitars without resorting to hanging them on the wall; the walls are being saved for....

I have a lot of nice framed concert and other music related posters. The primary wall above the guitars will be full. Here's a sneak peak from the opposite wall. BTW, I painted this room this color without realizing how well the color works with this poster.
The horseshoe was unbelievably there - I've been on this kinda interesting run of horseshoes that started in early December with a dude in a bar insisting I accept the $1,000, 150 year old Gold and Quartz Horseshoe pin simply because he was a dealer and was impressed with my cowboy had at a bar downtown. That horseshoe stays pined to the band of the hat cause I can use all the good luck I can get these days. It's a nice, 20X hat I'd had made just a few weeks before, it paid for itself within a week and I don't tell that story to strangers for fear of having my hat stolen.
There have been a few other horseshoes along the way too, including one I found when I was clearing a bunch of my Dads shit out of the garage for my Mom. I hung that one over the door to his music room.
Back to nooks, this is the record / album nook. Those boxes of records will be soon replaced with a proper record storage cabinet.
Separately, just inside the bedroom door is some shelves that turned out to be the perfect nook for my 7" 45 collection. Each of those crates fit nicely into a little 22" roll aboard I have. If I'm DJing a country set, I just grab the crate full of country singles and go. I've got a Rock and Roll crate, a a Funk & Soul Crate, a Country Crate, an Oldies Crate, and a final crate with a mixed bag of all kinds of shit that's really my main crate.
I guess that's a lot more than just guitar porn, but really this is the only thread Im really active in at the new site and I'm feeling chatty. Thanks for indulging me. I'll post a picture of the room once it's complete.
Back to normally scheduled guitar porn.
