My favorite guitar is in general a Fender Stratocaster

The guitar of my dreams is a Fender Stratocaster Sunburst (1962).

I love the Strat's clean, without distortion sound, it's so funky.
That's how it used to sound for me :-)

But there are of course a lot of other great guitars I love, like the Gibson SG or the Gibson Les Paul etc...

I have an Epiphone Dot (335 copy), and an Epiphone dreadnought acoustic. My dream guitar would be a mid '60s Fender Jaguar, and an either '60s or '70s Fender Stratocaster. Although Strats are obviously amazing guitars, there's something about Jags that make me love them more.

I'm gassing for a Fender Deluxe V-Neck Strat in honey blonde

[jonathanbud]

my favorite guitar would have to be my fender toronado, best neck ever

my fav guitars are strats, but my favorite guitar that i personally own is my jazzmaster. It doesnt sound as great as the strats, but it has a much better feel.

I have a Fender Lite Ash Stratocaster, made in Korea & a Michael Kelly Patriot Shadow Satin, which is a Les Paul copy. I prefer the strat because of the sound, although I think the Patriot is of higher quality.
I haven't played many guitars, but I think a strat is perfect for me. Of course I'd like to have one of these old strats from the 50s or 60s.

Dreaming of: Martin 00-15, with a few personal tweaks. I checked it out last night and it'd come out to be $7000 US.
A vintage Strat, either 3-tone Sunburst or Olympic White.

Own: Valencia CG160 Classical, sucks, but is worth playing for practice.
Squier Strat. Sucks more.

A pre CBS Stratocaster in Olympic White would be my dream guitar.
Has anyone ever played one of those VG Strats?, they seemed like a cool idea.

[fenderfunk14]

any purist isnt going to like the VG strats. i dont even think they make them anymore.

its an interesting idea, but i dont really like how the roland pickup looks. theres also too many knobs...just a weird cluttered design.

Fender artist signature series Eric Johnson stratocaster.

In bath, where i live, they have a vintage and rare shop, and they have this beautiful 1962 Strat w/ 3tone sunburst. It looked exactly like Frooshy's favourite guitar. I was in love, didnt dare to play it just incase i fell in love and would have to put out more that £10k for it! Hahah

But otherwise i am very happy with my Tokai Goldstar. The japanese really know about quality.

[pehjott]

depends on the sound...

i like clean strat sounds but i also love distorted gibson sounds.that might be the reason for me having both ;-)

I do not think I would buy one myself but I thought the idea seemed good, I think it does look to cluttered also, Fender stopped making it last year I think.
My favorite guitar is the Strat, I have a 2008 US one which I love, but it didn't cross my mind at the time to spend more and get a VG, I just didn't really want one although I thought the idea was good, to me it seemed a bit fiddly and there is to much to go wrong if that makes any sense?.

[fenderfunk14]

yeah, theres a ton of electronics inside of the guitar. mo wires mo problems.

the sounds from it didnt sound bad, roland is a great company, but it seemed like a rushed design. maybe they'll try out a different model in the future
