Whats the best guitar brand?  

I guess it may depend on what you want out of it, I help some musicians and they don't ever seem to have just one guitar and in one gig they seem to swap from one to the other, I know one of the guys i help is always talking about the Les Paul guitar, I know nothing about them myself, I used to think a bass was just another guitar thats how dumb I was....,

I don't think there's a "best" guitar brand, it all depends on what kind of music you play. I play Hardrock/Metal and i own a Ibanez Iceman and a Gibson Explorer, both are really good guitars but the iceman (even though it's half the price of the explorer) is way better in playing metal and all that harder stuff. The Gibson has a wonderful clean sound but it isn't that flawless when it comes to high distorsion. To answer youyr question i would say Gibson when they are more allround than other brands.

Hahahah, you don't have to buy a lit of guitars, just but the acoustic ones and just add a pick-up so that u can attach a jack in an amlifyer.. ^_^
if u want your acoustic guitar to sound nice and to be durable, buy those guitars made from Cebu in Philippines.. ^_^

PRS make some awsome guitars.
