Love my Peavey HP special:
I play it the most
I write the most/best material

Super Fast neck, thick tones, gorgeous carved top & birds eye fretboard
Floyd has a great lock down/ pull up option
Love it so much I just scored another with a cherryburst maple cap on the bay last night!

That guitar holder deserves a special mention too! Where did you come across that?

Here is my current love affair. Swamp Ash body, maple top. The blue kinda changes color depending on the lite source. Mary Kay back is kinda cool too. Weird wood combo I know but this sucker sings. it does everything well. The hums split with a push/pull tone knob to get extrememly good strat tones. Hit the blower switch and its Direct Bridge humbucker straight to the amp. Balls for days. .... :rock:

Wicked Awesome!
 
My number one is a Gibson Les Paul Standard Custom Shop that is Brunswick Blue and has EMG's that were installed at the gibson factory, the guitar according to gibson was made by Ernie King which was the head of the custom shop at that time. it was my first les paul ever, a girl i was dating at that time bought it for me. IT SOUNDS AMAZING THROUGH ANYTHING. I played it through a Blue Voodoo at sam ash once and the entire store crouded around me to see what kind of guitar i was playing...they kept saying "oh it's just a black standard with EMG's" it looks black in the case.
 
If it sinds good through a crate you know it's supernatural!

Yankee: Love that custom blue, so close to my dream build color

One of these - just because they are fucking bad ass and awesome. Nothing can touch a Ken Lawrence Explorer. Panties just fall right off.....

Isn't it embarrassing being on stage when your panties fall off? :poke: :D

Weren't you trying to sell this one? Cool that a pickup change made such a big difference for you. Looks great!

Mine is hands-down my Suhr Pro M2. (Bridge pup changed out to a Tone Zone.) I haven't wanted another guitar (aside from eventually a full-on custom Modern) since I got it. I even ended up selling a few Strat mutts I had and passing my former #1 (99 AM STD w/mods) down to my son due to never playing them anymore. I kept all of my other superstrats, even though they don't see as much play time anymore. The neck shape fits my hand great, and the fine fret work and set-up makes it super easy to play all over the fretboard. Not to mention the sound is very lively. It bites without being shrill.

Love! :rock:
 
Yes!!!! I changed the pickups to a Suhr Aldrich for the bridge and Duncan Hot Rails for the neck and middle position and it totally woke up the guitar. I has become my #1.

I wish hers would fall off more often
 
I've had mine for over a year now and still loving it, and for exactly the same reasons, too. I have it set to down-trem only for more body resonance, really liking that feature still.

I don't know why I try and move away from them, but I always come back to a Tele.

And at this point, I love most of them.
 
1968 Fender Mustang. Most versatile guitar tone-wise that I've ever played.
