What are you favourite guitars? They don't have to be ones you actually own, just your favourite guitars in general.
Mine are Fender Jaguars/Jazzmasters and Fender Telecasters. I just wish they were a bit lighter.
I also like the look of a Schecter Hellcat but I have never heard one.

I'm a Fender man, all the way. Mostly the "non-strat-or-tele" guitars, like the Mustangs, Jazzmasters, Jaguars, Jag-Stangs...I've been digging my Samick Strat copy, so I'm down with Strats too.

'Lectric: Telecaster and Gibson SG. I love the feel of both.
'Coustic: I dig my Martin 000-15. It's an economy-range model but suits me perfectly.

IM most definately a fender girl. I just cant get on with other guitars..particularly gibsons. they dont feel right.
My favs - Jaguars and Jazzmasters. Teles I like when in a certain mood, Jag - stang I love the idea, ive played with one a little recently, I quite liked it, but ive not had the time to 'get to know' it.
Obviously, strats, you gotta love the classics.
When I have my own Jaguar, I will die a happy woman.
Also, mustangs... I like them, but just encountered too many problems with them..I dont know, theyd be great cos they do what i want them to do, but if only they stayed like that.

Yes..Jag-Stangs are quite nice. I love the body. Also all of the selector slides for the pickups add for great versatility...God bless Cobain, hehe.

| because i got a guitar about a year ago and it suits me fine for now. Also I want a real good one, so it'll cost quite a bit of money. |

I'd be happy if I would own a red Airline guitar like Jack White from the White Stripes.
Those guitars are just so cool shaped, and sound so powerfull!
I also love Fender Jaguars, Gretschs, and Eko's, but these happen to be the one's I can't afford right now...
I'm bored with the valleys and bored by the peaks. So I bought a ticket to the freaks |

I have never seen one of those except for around Jack's neck. I didn't even know what they were called. Being left handed, I have no chance of getting one no doubt!!!  Great sounding guitar though!!! 
As for Jag-Stangs, I think they were a great idea in principle but I have heard a lot of bad reviews for them. The problem of course with these AND jaguars/jazzmasters is their bridge.

well, my 2 faves are my 2 current guitars...
lovely telecaster, sounds great, lovely to play!!
ahh! and my lovely jagmaster 'look at me, i'm a front man' shiny and glittery red guitar! the picture really doesn't do it justice, it's a bit darker red than that and has glitter in it... doesn't sound fantastic compared with the telecaster, and not quite as fun to play, but i look darn hot playing it!

I have a couple of Tele's - they snap up a big sound like a motherfuck. A '97 Nashville Tele and a 2000 '69 Thinline Reissue; I'm a rhthym player and they suit me quite well. I also have a Charvel Surfcaster that I may or may not keep around; it's fantastic, but I'm not quite sure if it's what I'm looking for anymore.

I like the Mosrite guitar. I've never played one, but I love the history behind it.

You know you're a pussy if: your guitar has sparkles.
That Jagmaster is ugly, sorry...black on red is a horrible combo. I hate Squires. The only thing I hate about the Jag-Stang is the lack of body contours...I guess the switches could have been placed better as well, but I haven't had a problem with them.

Broken Face...I'd get this one if I were you:

So nice. Very nice price. Also, if you want to order online order off of that site, very reliable. That's where I got my Ibanez and recording gear, hehe.

Ah, so you're cosmetic when it comes to guitars, eh? Not that great of an idea since sound should be your priority...but hey, to each their own. *grin*

Nah I'm with Jim on this one. The colouring could have been a whole lot better. Jaguars are coloured much better and are a better guitar too IMO (by a long way obviously).

Must say though Bumblebeeboy, your Tele is very very nice. That's a keeper!!!

Not only do you want to sound good, but you want to look good...it's all part of the rock star appeal. The way a guitar sounds is very important, but the way it looks is also important.

exactly.
No matter how great a song sounds, you want it to be beautiful as well.
I guess its sorta like choosing a partner, the perfect one would have a fantastic personality, and look amazing.

i mean, sound is obviously most important, but if you have options to make that sound look good too, why not go for what you want? this is like not caring what color/location your house is, as long as the house itself is nice.

My two beauties are a red Fender Jazzmaster (reissue) and a black G&L Rampage (which plays beautifully, and which I've modified with a Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates humbucker coz the old humbucker gave out.) My next guitar is probably going to be either a Les Paul or an SG.
I guess my favorite guitars, by default, are the ones I own. After all, I don't play any other ones!
