OK, so I'll paint the scene. You're in some sort of music Hall Of Fame in about 20 years. You turn the corner and it hits you like a message from the heavens. A guitar in a glass case, perfect lighting from nice dramatic angles. It looks so alive. So tasty. Wow, you got to see it. You will never forget it.
Who's guitar is it? (so and so's whatchumacallit answers please)
I'll start. For me, it'd be Keith's Telecaster. (Surprised? I''m so shallow)

Hi,

I could not possibly come up with just one and putting them in any kind of order would make my head explode so here are a few from my top 10.
