Show us your... TWINS!

[ChickWithaRic]

We all have them. We may deny we have them, but we have them.

Bass and guitar from the SAME manufacturer. Show us yours, share the guilt.

I'll start with a pair of Squiers.

I'll even continue with an Ibanez one-two.

Squiers - '99 Affinity Strat with lots of upgrades, 2021 CV 50s P with lots of upgrades.

Ibanez - 1980 Roadster RS900, 1998 (I think) GAX-70, both as stock from the box as the day they were made apart from Hipshot knobs on the RS.

Your turn. Go!

My gig basses are random ash P bodies identically appointed, with USA Geddy Lee Jazz necks, Dominger P and Tom Brantley Geddy J pups, 920d parallel-serial control joints, Hipshot detuner, Decoboom pickguards, Dunlop straplocks, and D'Addario EXL170 strings.

And then I have my former gig Ps... identical MIM Ps with Dominger Thumper pups, Hipshot detuners, and Dunlop Straplocks...

I live by the Rule of 2 like a Sith lord, so I keep other twins as well.

Some older pics.....



A pair of Epiphone tobacco-burst, bolt-on Thunderbirds (one of which i no longer have....)

A pair of Epiphone Alpine White, neck-through Thunderbirds (one is a Classic Pro, one is a Vintage Pro)

Don't know if I'd call them twins:

more like a family!

A look at two acoustics.
Both with the Aphex System...only acoustics fortunate enough to have these electronics.

two sets of fraternal twins:



brothers from another mother:



bastard child:

Packed for the move so I cant take pics, but 9 Ibanez (8 BG, I EG) and 4 Peaveys (soon 1 more).

I've never owned a guitar in my life. I'm not interested in guitar and I cannot play one.
So, we don't all have "them".

Not identical twins, but pretty close.

I love matching headstocks, but not on my budget at this moment.
...someday.

 

[sleddogn]

just a heads up, couple other threads full of pics of twins...

When I got these before the flu of unknown origins, I paid an average of $740ea including shipping and a minor repair . . . Not including the lollipop tuners I had installed on each. Today they're a bit more.

Some of you guys are truly nuts.

Two of my Japanese Fenders here. Different models so they aren't exactly twins, but one's been modified to the point it could almost be considered the other's fraternal twin.

The 4-string is a 2012 MIJ Fender Jazz Bass '62 Reissue. The 5-string is a 2004 CIJ that began life as a standard JBV, but within a few months of acquiring it, I had it modified to look like a '61 (stack knobs) that got converted into a 5-string (rest assured I would never modify an actual vintage Fender like that).

So now I have two Fender Jazzes that are largely similar, and until I decide to have the fiver's body refinished in black (been considering it for ages since I originally wanted to get a black model but could only find a burst), they're effectively 'twins' for the time being.

Let's get a little loose in the definition of twins, here.

The dude modeling the bass is a twin, too.

Repetition? On TB? You're kidding me, right?

 

[Killing Floor]

Kissing cousins? Or paternal maybe. Close enough you know the same person loves em.
