Sorry but i can't use anything other than a Squire strat i was given for a gift, i've picked up other guitars. Can't seem to use them the same.

I have another guitar (Kramer focus 3000)

But my squire. Argh, it's built like a tank, with a neck sent from god.

Pickups are shite.

Need to deal with that.

I use a squier fat strat, I run it through a vox ad30vt. It sounds fine to me, but I've played actual standard fender strats, man, I can't wait until I find one in a classic sunburst color. Yeah, but getting back to what I have, I like it.

Thanks Dudes!
Keep on Rockin'

Gibson Les Paul Artist that I bought new in 1981 . Active electronics , built in compressor . Still plays like a dream .

If I claim to be a wise man , it surely means that I don't know .

Epiphone 335... absolutely love it. I learnt on an Ovation acoustic from my boss. I have recently bought for the kids (ok, and for me too) a little muck around learner guitar - Squier Affinity Strat Maple

It's actually a great little guitar.

electric: Godin Freeway classic
acoustic: seagul s6+ cutaway
classical: ramriez r2 (made in 2000)

Guitarin' isn't a job, so don't make it one.

The three that I play the most:

Early 80's G&L S-500 (essentially a mahogany Strat and my fave!)
Taylor T-5C (gaining on the G&L)
Burn's Steer, a.k.a. "Fugly"

My favs to play are:

Gibson Flying V Faded (it was worth every penny)
Epiphone Les Paul 100 (love the tone)
Ibanez GRG 170DX (I really enjoy that cheap guitar)

:D

A Squier Strat. I love the sound of it, although I think I'd like a Tele too.

i played a yamaha rgx121 up until christmas. very nice guitar for the money.

but since christmas, my black gibson lp special is my main squeeze. after playing it, everything else just feels like a toy!

I don't want you to play me a riff that's going to impress Joe Satriani; give me a riff that makes a kid want to go out and buy a guitar and learn to play.

LOTS... but not as many as others I know.

Electric: Epiphone Les Paul Standard & Fender Mexican Stratocaster... Deluxe (I upgraded it a lot)
Acoustic: Epiphone EJ200 (with LR Baggs active i-Beam pickup) 2004 Martin 000C - 16RGTE & 2005 Alvarez 12 string with cutaway and electronics

E doesn't = MC2, E = Fb

1978 Fender USA Strat - black with black pickguard, maple fingerboard
2002 Squier Standard Tele - wine, rosewood board
2002 Seagull acoustic

... but 90-odd% of the time I play the Tele - it's the guitar I was looking for all those years. Neck fit for angels, gorgeous tone. Never had any trouble except a loose jack socket and a scratchy selector (cured by working it to & fro a few times!). Never been tempted to change the stock Alnico pups, and it stays in tune better than the old Strat 8)
