Members RufusFussbuster Posted February 23, 2011 Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 Krashpad, a Special like that is definitely on my list. Strung_Out, tomh777, those LPs are both, just, yeah, wow. Toadroller, I love the look of that Hamer, and I like how the picture looks like "Quick, snap the photo - I need to close the case before awesomeness gets all over the carpet!" This thread is loaded with killer guits, people. Enjoy them every chance you get. Here's to your #1! Nice (GAS-inducing) thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That photo was snapped as I gazed upon her for the first time. Seconds later I strummed the strings... a deep, solid tone rose from the case. Awesomeness was all over the place. What a mess.

Members LeonardScaper Posted February 23, 2011 Members Share Posted February 23, 2011 ....the best neck? I think this is the factor for a lot of folks who answer this question truthfully. For me it's my '71 SG. That slim tapered neck is........sensuous. I mean, when I run my hand up that thing it gets me off big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GuitarNoobie Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 I was hoping you'd post your custom built red LP, Noobie. the red one is a great guitar, but out of pure playability the '73 rocks... here's the red one anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Strung_Out Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 the red one is a great guitar, but out of pure playability the '73 rocks... here's the red one anyway I don't doubt that '73 custom for a minute, it just looks like a player. I do love that red LP though, thanks for the pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeonardScaper Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 Honestly........you guys should be ashamed of yourselves for putting all of these slutty pictures up here!

Members Woody_in_MN Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 Probably my best - although my DBZ, and Hagstroms make it a tough call... The one I will never sell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steadfastly Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 All the things on my favorite guitar have to be good or even better than good, but the neck has to "fit" me and my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members honeyiscool Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 For me, the best guitar is something that not only helps me play well, but makes its character known through how I play. Any guitar can play like butter, but I feel like only a few guitars can inspire me to make the sounds that I truly love out of a guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cratz2 Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 I'd say I have four that I really love more than the others, but If pressed I could cut that list down to two... Can't really choose between those though... Surf green one is a partscaster with an MIJ Fender body, Robert Cray sig neck, Duncan Antiquity pickups, Wilkinson trem, blender pot. This is probably my most addicting guitar. Every time I play it, I seem to get lost in enjoyment. Not worrying about wanting to change this or mod that. I just play it and love it. Plus, I had wanted a surf green guitar ever since I got my first new electric in 1983. Coral/orange one is a partscaster with a MIM Fender body, oil-finished Warmoth Pro neck, Fender CS54 pickups, standard wiring. I need to convert it to my normal Master Volume, Master Tone, Blender. The neck is probably my favorite neck I've ever owned. I've put a lot of work into it, refinishing the body and the neck. Heck, I even shot uneven layers of tinted nitro on the pickguard.

Members J San Dimas Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 Tough one! I have five total.....they all sound/feel/play differently. I don't know which one is best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Brewski Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 I remember when you built that - I love that thing man!! the red one is a great guitar, but out of pure playability the '73 rocks... here's the red one anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Strat87 Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 here's mine, a CS60 strat. The reason? I love fiesta red, hands down my favorite fender color. I've wanted a fiesta red 60's style strat for years. Also, the '59 large C neck is the best I've played, really fills out my hand and resonates beautifully. The pickups sound great, and the light relic finish is perfect in my opinion. in the interest of not whoring out the same pic over and over I shot a few crappy cell pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GreatDane Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 I love all my guitars, but I'd probably give the title of best (for now) to my '92 Les Paul Special. With the Wolfetone P90's and RS guitarworks vintage wiring kit this thing just sings whether it be clean or dirty, it's also so nicely worn in that the neck is just a joy to play. oh. my. god. that guitar kills me everytime. i love it.

Members truckdub Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 I'm pretty fond of all my guitars. But right now I'm in single coil mode. My number one for now, and it changes often, is my reissue '69 Tele Thinline. Recently installed a BG T-90 in the bridge and a BG Custom Blues in the neck. Also changed out the pots for 250's. Amazing guitar with a ton of character. It makes me want to pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EllenGtrGrl Posted February 24, 2011 Members Share Posted February 24, 2011 Man, that's a toughie. It's between these two. 2009 Rickenbacker 360 Late 2010/Early 2011 Fender CP Jazzmaster The both have their strengths and their weaknesses. The Jazzy has a killer neck, and a nice, warm sound. The Ric, has killer chime (which sounds great clean, and downright awesome at high gain), and looks fantastic. Which is my favorite for the day, often depends upon my mood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
