Mick Mars of legendary rock band Motely Crue has a vast number of guitars. “I have about 100 guitars. I like to have a lot of different things to play around with”, Mick once was interviewed in saying. Hundreds of guitars have passed through his hands in the ’80s alone, from the trusty black 1972 Les Paul Custom that he used to record the band’s early albums to various Kramers, Charvels and Hamers in every imaginable shape.

• 1962 Fender Stratocaster

• B.C. Rich Warlock
• PRS CE-22
