Mostly guitar amps and other pro audio gear.
I have stands and other equipment for guitar work off to the right out
of the picture. Drill presses, routers, you name it. Hand tools
galore specific to fret and neck work. I can do anything except making
a neck from scratch. I can pull the fretboard and replace it and frets
though. I work on just about everything except violins.

That stuff is from the early 80's. They were pricey gear in their era.
Leader, Tek, Sencore, Fluke. Still work like new though.
If you look close, laying on top the Cricket transistor checker there
is a Kustom guitar amp power amp board. That's what I was working on
when I snapped the pic.

If you are such a wiz then why is it that you never have anything to
say thats worth reading?
Also. Dont be intimidated by a guitar neck. There really isnt anything
easier on a guitar to build. All you need is a Skillsaw, preferably
some sort of bench mounted sander and a rasp. A tape and pencil might
come in handy as well.

Yeah, I had to blow up the pic to make it out.
I've worked with a lot of that stuff in my day job for decades, and yeah
it used to be pretty expensive.

You can pick up an old TEK 2245 cheap.. they are ok for TV work also :)
Or...look around for a Hung Chang 5504... I had one and I would trade
my Tek2245 to get it back. really good CRO.

I have no need to build necks when I can buy manufacturer licensed
necks from Mighty Mite. I put an ebony MM neck on my strat and it is
perfect.
