Lots of guitars, basses, banjos, mandolins, banjolins, resonators, mandoguitars etc... some really expensive ones, and a whole bunch of cheap quirky unique things that i love. Really... there’s too many to list, and it seems to constantly evolve. But there’s Grestch, Fender, Gibson, Grubisa, Rickenbacker, Epiphone, Airline, Danelectro, Hofner, Chibson, and a whole bunch of weird mutant things.

Drums... same as above, kits by Ludwig, Yamaha, and a custom made one by the Metro drum Company. Lots of snares, and odd bass drums. I think last count there was about 15 snares and 8 bass drums around the place...

Hammond M100 with Leslie
Yamaha U3 upright
Crusty old upright that people seem to really like to play
Toy Piano which seems to end up on a lot of records
A pump organ, chord organ and Indian table harmonium. Because we love pumpy keyboards
There’s a glockenspiel around here somewhere
Lots of harmonicas, but Michael doesn’t share them (ewwww!!!)
