BadgerDave Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 From a purely visual perspective, what's the most incredibly gorgeous instrument you've owned? I'm going with this Rick 381:
harry65 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 my 93 studio , in every way , from looks to playability to sustain for decades to it's tipping the scales at just over 7 pounds , it is a keeper...........................or at least til i get g.a.s bad enough.................
diablo175 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Hmm. Tough one. Possibly a toss up between my Cali Elite Custom and my Custom Shop LP Axcess. Behold:
Steve Haynie Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 The Gibson L-7C that got sold years ago was the most elegant guitar. It was not gaudy, but it looked incredibly classy.
G Man Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 For me its a toss up between my Phantom Custom and a Larrivee SD-60 I once owned. I really wanted to love that fat larri, but the 1 7/8" neck was too much for my hands. Also prefer the tone of Martin of Larrivee.
svl Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 For me it's a toss-up between my Dragon and my long lost 81 Hamer color graphic Special. I don't even have a pic of the Special to cry over, she's lost to the ages...
seeker Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 A tie between my Blueburst Hamer and this McNaught:
harry65 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 A tie between my Blueburst Hamer and this McNaught: holy crapppp!!!!!!!!!!! that blueburst just gave me wood.................
carfish7 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I can't add mine because Ray hasn't sold it to me yet! Mmmmmm, Koa! Z
Steve Haynie Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 That piece of maple is too beautiful! A tie between my Blueburst Hamer and this McNaught:
Brentrocks Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I would have say betrween these 3.... Heritage 20th ann H 150 Korina Standard Heritage Korina Firebird
Thundersteel Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I've got four that I consider equally beautiful: 1. Heritage H555 Classic 2. Hamer Artist Custom 3. Hamer Newport Custom 4. G&L L-2000
backinit Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Definately the recent Edwards. The flame is 3D.
SteveB Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 probably this guy: don't remember who has it now. of course my #1 best friend electric is no slouch:
Carl.B Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I hate looking at threads like these I get GAS soooooo bad!
nervous Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Hmm, there have been a few but my 2005 Monaco may be the #1 guitar: Although my current 1991 Sunburst could give it a run (better pics due): Best bass award goes to:
lockjawnight Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Don't have any pics here at work but everyone knows the guitar. In early 85 while in college I bought the Ibanez DT-555 Collen set neck. Opening the case on that with its shiny black and 3 PU creme goodness used to be a thrill each and every time...and it played (and still plays waaaay fast. it's still my all-time favorite "looker"But that Rock Neilson Burst on Ebay right now tugs at me the same way every time I see it. My 91' MM EVH Purple Quilt was so beautiful when new before it faded a bit.
nervous Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 From a purely visual perspective, what's the most incredibly gorgeous instrument you've owned? I'm going with this Rick 381: This one chokes me up a bit. When I was 18 I had a Ric 4001 that had similar cosmetics. Yours is just awesome! That pic could become some wallpaper... the one in the sig I think if I could ever add this to my list of guitars owned I could stop right there. It's been a fave from the first time I saw it here.
