What's your main guitar?

[richieG]

Mine is a recent aqusition. I have always primarily been a Gibson guy since I was 20. I am so used to the scale length I thought I would never change. I liked fenders and ibanezs etc but gibsons always felt like "home"

But, I got this Jeff Beck strat, and it's so fucking nice. It has a neck like an R7, lace sensors which are not a million miles from humbuckers, especially the double on the bridge ,locking tuners and roller nut.

I never thought I would say I was primarily a strat guy, but I am now. Then again I guess it's not really a traditional strat.

Heres a pic

I traded my epiphone lespaul elitist in for an American strat. And never looked back. Way more comfortable and a much better tonal field. I lost my American due to hard times, but I have a very nice Mexican that I reciently acquired. That is my current main ax. My back up is an 85 Kramer with a Floyd rose and a Duncan full shred

Here is mine. I'm a Jackson guy, but I just love this guitar. Even more since it was upgraded to MHD pups!

I dont have a main guitar. Whatever I feel like playing that day. But I have been playing my new Schecter and Ibanez a lot

I gigged all of last year with my Hamer Artist but I recenlty picked up a Les Paul DC that I'm really liking. I used it at a couple of Gigs and it just KILLS.
Both guitars have Duncan Triple Shot mounting rings for lots of versatility.

Of course they're plugged into Marshalls. I have a JCM800 & a JCM900 MKIII.

This one gets a lot of my time.

It's the LP in the front.

The zebra pickup is the original pickup, there's a seymour duncan pearly gates in the bridge position now.

My main six-string guitar is a 60's tribute Gibson Les Paul Studio. I love the tone I get with p90's and my marshall tsl602. My Epi Custom plays pretty well too. But I am a bass player so my #1 is a 5-string warwick corvette.

While it would be easier to settle on one guitar to keep from tweaking my amps I just can't do it. Each guitar I have now was purchased because it gave me something in tone or playabilty the others didn't.

Since I don't gig and only record I love having the options. However if all my guitars had to go away except one I would keep my Robin Trower Strat.

I love all three of my main axes: Gibson LP Classic, Fender Eric Clapton Strat, and a Jackson SL Soloist. They are all different, but each has its own special characteristic...

It's hard to pick just one but I can say that my trusty 80s Strat Plus has seen more gigs than any other.

Hey look...Peter Gabriel plays guitar...

 

[thetragichero]

weird he's on a bunch of video screens too...

 

[johnfv]

I've been compared to a lot of bald guys but Peter Gabriel is one I've not heard before - nice to be compared to such a talented guy. Yup, my Strat Plus is giant size on the screens behind me, doing some live video that night at the club...

My Lydian "Powerslave" Jem is my main Axe. Its just the one I use the most because its versatile and plays great.

It has a very unique tone. The body is white Korina, the neck a scarf jointed maple/walnut/maple with a Sheduah fretboard and pearl "Eye or Ra" inlay. Pickups are pretty standard stuff but they work very well in this guitar : DiMarzio Super Dist in the bridge and Norton in the neck. The middle is a Fender single coil. I had a Tone Zone in there for a while and went to the SD. The difference wasn't huge between the two in this particular guitar.

The finish is thin Nitro.

Very nice!

Thanks , Longhair!

Mines a 93 Strat plus with a red Lace sensor in the bridge. Been my #1 since 93! I'll never replace that guitar! Ive got a lot of guitars but always go back to this one.
