My Lentz Family!
took a shot of my family of lentz guitars today and thought id share. these guitars have basically ruined any other guitars chance of winning me over, they just strait kill. the only other guitar i own is a 335 that ive had forever, and its a good guitar to hang onto...

i got my first one (the HSL) in may 2010, and since then, ive only bought more. the white DL90 came next and just blew me away. after that, i literally tracked down "chip" (the burst DL90) and snatched it up. i bought the SSL at the beginning of this month. i didnt have a strat and figured if i were to own one again, i would only want one built by the scotts. these feel and sound like the best examples of the 50's and 60's bolt-ons. just an unbelieveable playing experience. i have never sounded so good.

if you havent yet, you have GOT to try a lentz!

Wow Pete, nice collection (herd?).

The far left and far right guitars (2 P90's) look the same except the finish.

Do you really need both? Don't they sound very similar? Would you give me one or the other? I won't be picky...either one will do!

thanks! yes, they are both DL90's.

they actually do sound different from each other, even though they are the same model..similar traits but different personalities...worth having both!

unfortunately, i cannot give you one...

Killer, I recently added a Lentz T and I am loving it, My only 2 electrics these days are the Lentz T and my Peter MAX Les Paul. Enjoy this vid of me in action, with Jeff Massey of the Steepwater Band, joining in on the fun, paying tribute to the Stone's, Bitch.

Fantastic Pete - I'm totally jealous!

Toss a Croyden in there and you'll have "collected the whole set!"

Excellent, thanks, Dana O.
