best looking guitar, yes i mean guitar, not bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Ive always wondered if I have a weird taste for guitars. Im under the impression that teles look DISGUSTING. and les pauls/strats mavericks and ESPs looks nice as do most other gibsons apart from the SG(something must have went wrong in the design process)


im sure someone will disagree with me on the tele and SG things.

so what do you guys think?

Yeah, that's my favorite Fender guitar too. Other than that I've always been a fan of the Gibson Flying V, and PRS guitars are pretty nice looking too.

I love the look of a black Les Paul.

I have to echo SMB2k's post, with the inclusion of the Les Paul Special at the top, and the Tele mentionned has to have two humbuckers and a strat headstock (the Keef Richards special).

I was at one of our local music stores over the weekend and could not stop looking at the new ESP's. Specifically the LTD deluxe series. They are so sexy and the paint schemes are very appealing!

I have also been a long time fan of Fender Telecasters
Just beautiful...

Yeah, I dig those too. I also like the switchmasters, jazzswitchers jagmasters and whatever combination there has been of those guitars. I also like PRS, Les Paul DCs, and a lot of those handmade ones like Driskill, Kinal, and Myka.

A 72 Fender would be "post- CBS." If you're talking about the Tele Deluxe with the oversized post 69 Strat headstock, I'd still say it's ugly.

I love double cut LP Specials.



Apparently, Johnny Thunders dug that body style too!

If you add the DC at the bottom of the page, those would be my exact favorites as well.
