TB'ers. what guitars do you like?

These are my guitars, I am selling the tele and musicmaster, just keeping the Les Paul. I heavily prefer gibson guitars, my favorite guitars are SG's so I will be swapping my LP for a SG when the right deal comes along. My favorite basses are ricks and sg's share a lot of characteristics there necks are both attached at the last fret , there double cut and the headstocks are 2x2 and 3x3.

I play both and my only electric guitar is an old Kramer Focus 3000D from 1984...Strat copy with two Strat pickups and a humbucker. My main basses are Fenders, and I do like Fender guitars, though these days I'm a little burned out on the Strat sound and I favor the Tele (would like to get one but the Focus is a fine cheapo guitar and does the job for me on the rare times I gig with it). I find myself liking Gibsons more and more because the humbuckers aren't as bright as most Strat pickups, so I don't know whether I'd get a Tele or an SG first if I were to buy another one.
 
I am pretty specific, well at least for right now. I play Warwick basses and Les Paul guitars. That is pretty much it. I love Fender P basses as well, I just don't own any at the moment. I love Fender Strats, but just don't own any. The stable as of right now consists of 3 Warwicks and 2 Les Paul guitars.

I play very little acoustic guitar at church, and if I do, I would just borrow one from the guys in my band (either a Taylor or Martin).
 
Depending on the song I use either a Gibson 335 or a Fender Strat with Lace Sensor & TBX controls. For acoustic gigs it's a Martin 000-28 or a Collings OM-42, both Brazilian rosewood. I've been lucky to have both 30 years of session work and gigs plus a decent regular job. Most of my extra cash from music goes into improving my equipment or the kids college funds.
 
Never cared for that thin fender guitar tone,i was always a les paul kind of guy.Then i got a strat and wow it is unbelievably versatile and even with my limited guitar skill it is very easy to make it sing,more so than a les paul. I really want a telecaster but i think it would be kind of redundant because i can kind of get those tones from my strat.
