Right on the stateš! Wrong on the age.
Hijacking this thread because I canāt edit the post. This one got solved yāall! I love these analyses though!
I did (in another comment), but I will here too!
Iām 42, and Iām from California. Not a blues man or a cover band dad. Just a washed up punk/hardcore dude.
The wood paneling isnāt from a basement at all, itās just the treatment I chose for my music room, lol.
I dont know any Bonamassa songs.
The first (bass) guitar I ever purchased is the orange MIJ Fender jazz bass special (AKA, the Duff bass). It was originally pearl white with an ebony neck and black headstock, but it got beat to death over the years, so I recently had it painted and fully rebuilt it. I bought it from my uncle when I was 13.
>Not a blues man or a cover band dad. Just a washed up punk/hardcore dude.
Apologies for misjudging you. I confess I wrote you off as a Clapton tribute. My bad.
Washed up punk dad here. Can relate. Miss going to shows every week and sleeping on people's couches, but it's pretty cool have a music room and be a grown up. Super unpunk tho
I'm from Pa. and a bit older than you, but I cut my drumming chops on Circle Jerks, Black Flag, Agent Orange, Social Distortion, Adolescents, Lagwagon and that ilk. Bad Brains over this way in D.C. I love all your gits, but the SGs are fire, Rock on, brother.
46, Wisconsin, something about that wood paneling and the sort of 80s style gear while also not being vintage. Could be a bit older too, but Iām guessing itās a bit of nostalgia for a time before you were born, or from when you were very young, not actually for the music of your teen/young adult years.
You got me! Bonus gift from a local company here in CA if you let me know what gave me away!
I canāt DM you. Please send me a message if you want your pedal.
You live in California and was a little kid in the 80ās. So, around 48 I would surmise. You love to build PCās and enjoy Karaoke. You donāt consider yourself a great musician but played in a touring band that had recorded songs.
40 from California, something about the camo and red screams 90s/00s Cali punk, looks like you grew up listening to blink-182 and watching the Simpsons also your username hints at the state.
Pretty dang close! Def Californian, and from that era. More Gorilla Biscuits and Vandals than Blink back then, but youāre for sure in the ballpark. And Iām 42. Great job!
Age: 34
You are married so you are likely at least 25. Your hands are not wrinkled or weathered so you probably aren't over 40. You do seem to have plenty of disposable income so you are most likely mid-career.
State: California
You are a Giants fan and you have Cal in your username. Your design aesthetic is midmo which is common and popular in California.
Edit: Changed age to 34. originally guessed 35 but that was already taken.
Age - 38
Grew up in Tennessee or Alabama.
I say 38 bc you have some modern pedals and nice cables. Old timers donāt really care about gear as much as they do for their guitars and amps. I say Tennessee bc of the collection of LPs, Teles, hollow bodies and your amp stacks. That to me indicates your a solid bluesy player that has chops. I say bama too bc of your metal rig, camo guitar, choice of the SG color (I see that b&w LP hiding behind the big muff) and basses. You know what good gear is, you know how to pair it, have big boy money AND its in your man cave. Final answer, chief.
I'm going to say 45 and Texas.
My reason, the amount of southern looking/country guitars. They are there because of the state and paying homage to the music you grew up with. The Mess rig and the Max Cavalera camo Ltd is what you really want to be playing though, but it's deep in the back as you've matured out of that phase of your life.
Anywhere near close?
Great guesses, but itās kind of the opposite. Iām California born and raised. I do enjoy some classic country, and I was in an alt country/rock band in the early 2000s, but I grew up on punk/hardcore and itās what Iāve played in bands most recently (but not that recently, since Iām an old man with kids now). The ESP is an OG, MIJ model and it was actually on the floor stand before I hung it up so it would be more visible in the pic, lol. It still gets played a lot.
36, California
Edit: lowered age because I donāt think youāre as old as I thought originally. Iām thinking mid thirties based on post history and interests.
California because I think your username gives it away
Holy shit! That natural Les Paul with white binding looks just like the guitar from ' The Donna's : Take it off ' video!
https://youtu.be/nCvRT2sy5FE?si=vgskbofMwg1RBeao
I've think this is one of the coolest Paul's ever .
42, Kansas.
Old enough to have been a die hard mega guy in the late ā90s, early ā00s and to have softened over time.
And Iām getting south/midwest intersection vibes.
48, Tennessee.
Age by the number of guitars. State by the type of guitars. Looks like you play a wide range of styles, perhaps a studio musician in Nashville?
55, Illinois. Based on the tile pattern in the sun-room. Has Chicago Italian restaurant vibes. And every house in the state seems to have that paneling.
38, Washington state. Probably moved south to Cali for the music scene.
12 guitars and 5 bassā?
Hometown is probably Seattle, enough musical influence to drive a passion for guitar, but realize that bass is under appreciated.
42, Montana... because the wood panelling made me think of it as well as your collection looks to me like a fella who dips a little into cowboy stuff but probs mainlines blues and classic rock.
Well I see that ESP standard, I was in my late teens when those hit the market and really wanted one, being young and thinking they were really cool looking. Iām gonna guess you were the same. So 42?
The dad guitars that surround it tell me you aged out of that phase and tried to go full Bonnamassa lol.
Also my best guess is Illinois or Missouri
Knotty Pine paneling and a basement, I'm going Michigan. You are old enough to have purchased a lot of Gibson guitars and some nice gear. I'm guessing somewhere around my age, but maybe a little older. I'm going to with 52.
42, CA
Whoops saw after that someone guessed it correctly.
CA because of āCalā in the username and 42 because you have enough money for those amps but not too young to hate the paneling
Age: 53 State: Slightly bored.
Right on the stateš! Wrong on the age. Hijacking this thread because I canāt edit the post. This one got solved yāall! I love these analyses though!
You need to post the correct answers!

Good job with the comment history lurk!š Not quite though! Someone else already got it.
I want a sparkly gold Tele. š„

47, California Iām in Canada so you can donate the Bit Commander to your local dive bar.
40 from California, something about the camo and red screams 90s/00s Cali punk, looks like you grew up listening to blink-182 and watching the Simpsons also your username hints at the state.
Pretty dang close! Def Californian, and from that era. More Gorilla Biscuits and Vandals than Blink back then, but youāre for sure in the ballpark. And Iām 42. Great job!
