I have an EC-1000 and after setting it up, it plays so dang good. Satin black with gold looks sweet too
The last guy accidentally stated the truth about guitars: It has almost nothing to do with the guitar and almost everything to do with the setup. When people insist on playing a guitar before buying it, I roll my eyes. Who gives a shit how it plays at the store, or from the previous owner? You should have it set up anyway (or do it yourself, which isn't difficult), and that's the first time you'll know anything useful about the guitar. I feel like a lot of players actually have no real clue about setups, so they pick guitars that just by coincidence are set up the way they prefer, and then they equate that to "this guitar is amazing". I used to be in that same camp. But once you realize what I've said is true, you can stop chasing "the perfect guitar" and just turn any guitar into what you want it to be.
Marketing ain't what it used to be
My best one? A tie between the 50th Anniversary Telecaster that Mrs gave me Christmas '96 and my Harrison-spec Country Gent the folks gave me six months before anyone in the US knew who George was.
All these guitars are sick , also that Gibson shirt is class ????
Best guitar I ever played was a Ken Parker electric Archtop. I didn’t even like archtops at the time but it is sill unrivaled by a mile. It was easily ten years ago and i still think about that guitar haha
Any Mansfield guitar. I've played dozens and dozens of guitars but Mansfield guitars are just perfect creations from God. Every single one of them. I wish I had one now.
I love the EC-1000! Versatile, solid and a fun scale
My Suhr Modern is the best guitar I’ve ever picked up. For 1/4 the price though my LTD MH-1000 Evertune is killer though. Something about ESP / LTD necks.
Gibson J-200 Concerto edition. Heavy with mother of pearl. $5900. Absolutely head and hands above the Jon Bonamasa Inspired Les Paul. I have not played a bluebird yet, but … those are the top two.
I want that pink hollow body in the background ????
Mine is my Rivolta, designed though not built by Fano. If my other guitars were sentient they would be suffering neglect.
We all know the real answer is whatever telecaster is closest to you at any given time
Aria Pro II CS400 Cardinal Series from 1980. Still own one. My Ibanez GB10 is a close second. Own one of those too.
David A staying humble.
Yea a 55 single cutaway melody maker with p90 was the best playing
Steinberger is absolutely the best guitar ever. I sold my Gibson and fender guitars after purchasing my Steinberger. It has all the tones to cover any music
I've owned the best guitar I've ever played since spring 1993! It's right there in my little picture!
It's the last of the Kalamazoo 335s, made in 1981, serial number stamped early June.
As Gibson was moving production to Nashville and releasing the dot reissue that same year I firmly believe that my 335 was someone's last ever 335 and that's why the mojo level is so far off the charts!
Best guitar I've played was a cheap 1990s Les Paul Studio. I have several Les Paul's but that one sounded great until my drummer broke the neck. After that it never played the same.
There's only one good answer in this video. All the vintage garbage sucks
My Danelectro Dead on 67
Is the best guitar I've ever played an i only bring it out for special performances.
Ltd ec-1000 is ????
Joe Satriani Ibanez.
Kept me from quitting on guitar altogether!
My daughter has an epiphone les paul that has alot of custom work done to it that she got when her grandfather passed and it sounds incredible. Sounds better than any gibson les paul that was made recently.
The guy that loved the guitar his parents bought him ????????????????????????????????
I played my guitar teachers handmade #20 something Ola Strandberg. He was one of the first to order form him, let me play it in my lesson ( this is a decade before headless guitars made a comeback) I couldn’t comprehend what I was playing at the time, but felt like an Ibanez 90’s wizard neck with ergonomics off the charts
1999 Ibanez UV777. It was one of the models where the back of the neck is thick on the bass side and thinner on the treble side. Sort of like a sloped neck i suppose. Most comfortable neck I've ever played. I'm still kicking myself for selling it.
Late 60s Gibson Melody Maker SG.
Suhr definitely the best.. tried once and then cried once saw the price
All of the people that work at this store are the EXACT reason why no one wants to support music instrument stores anymore. That, and the fact you can get EVERYTHING they can offer cheaper, WAY.FUCKING.CHEAPER, without having to be around all of this pompous, douchieness, conceited, snobbish judgemental attitudes. Special FUCK OFF shout out to the "Daddy's special" jerk. And if that picture was your guitar, that guitar SUCKS!!!!!! ????????????????????????
1969 GIBSON J-45
Austin, Texas 2003…. My god that thi
