What is Your Favorite Axe?

[Gage]

Hey people, its been awhile since ive been on.But let me get to the point. What is your favorite axe?Mine is the Harpoon V Randy Rhoads used.

[Simon Ribeiro]

Good to see you around, Gage.
I don't play the guitar, but I just love the famous EVH's Ibanez Destroyer a.k.a. Shark guitar. And the Charvel Star Guitar is another beauty.

[Dino]

That's tough ...
I own alot of different guitars and I love them all.
Do I have to pick just one?

[Outtalove]

I agree with Dino. like women, hard to pick just one. so I won't.
Gretsch Silver Jet
Hamer 5 neck
Ed's purple Ernie Ball doubleneck
Nigel Tufnel's Ernie Ball hot rod guitar
The Shark Destoyer

Of famous guitars, i'd say the VHII guitar for looks, and the shark for overall sound.
Personally, i love old Charvels (USA made), the Washburn Nuno strats (N2 & N4), and american or Japanese Fender stratocasters. Even the old Squiers from Japan are great axes, the ones from the early 80's.
The new Squiers & the mexican strats sound & feel strange to my ears.
Great beginner guitars, though.

[The Ice Cream Man]

White Fender Strat S,S,S with a maple neck, high action and heavy strings through a Marshall JCM. There is NOTHING on the world better than the sound through that guitar. As Joe Perry said 'Nothing beats the sound of a dying strat'

I love that stratty sound, something that you either enjoy or don't.
A Les Paul or SG is too easy, though both killer instruments.
The Gibsons don't have that articulation a strat does, where you can play fast and hear every note just pop out. It's also easier to grip a strat's neck & bend the note without slipping off the fretboard.
In the 80's i had an ebony Gibson SG (which i truly regret selling), and i traded it in for a second hand cream colored, maple necked strat with the original Fender tremolo.
After the fluid neck of the SG, the strat seemed difficult to play.
But once i got used to the strat, it was impossible to feel comfortable on a Gibson.

Ab-so-freekin-lutetly the Charvel Star for 6-stringers. As far as basses, I like the Curbow Elite Petite Strawberry Burst model 4-stringer.

[unchainedguitars]

That star sounded sick on the 1980 video clips, what a great tone that thing delivered.

I play a Gibson Les Paul Studio. It ROCKS!!! I can get the Edward sound w/ it playing thru my Marshall. I don't have a tremelo on it, but I haven't really used my tremelo on my other guitars in years it seems.
