If you are a guitar player do you have a favorite guitar and why is it your favorite? I have 7 in all, 2 acoustic elec, 1 12string, 2 acoustic, 1 classical, and 1 elec. I think my favorite one, well the one I play most, is probably the Takamine acoustic elec because it has a real good tone and is easy on my fingers.

Traded my Les Paul for a Squire and a Takamine acoustic electric because it was a little heavier that I cared for. Some may think I shouldn't have done it but I'm happy with the trade and that's what mattered to me.

my favourite guitar is the 12 string because it literally gives a simulation of two guitars playing in unision!!

I don't play my 12 sting too often. Don't know why though because I really like it. It's a Seagull which is handmade in Canada. I've got a pickup you put in the hole which I use sometimes and it really sounds good through my amp.

He definitely has some talent. I read a thing about him that said he has won quite a few awards. Sure would hate to follow him in a contest.

My favorite guitars have to be any that are produced by ESP, even though I'm not a guitar player. But that's the ones that the folks in my band use, and they sound pretty decent while I'm jamming behind my drumkit.

I have a 40 year old Harmony red rocket. It has lived in 4 different states, in at least 15 houses or apartments and has been to 2 continents. It was the hot guitar when I bought it with many hard months of baby sitting money.

Fender Strat Sunburst 80 model. Supposed to be one of the last American Strats, some people say they're terrible, but this one can handle ninths like you wouldn't believe. Also a Lyric classical, which seems to be able to tune itself, and a Chinese Lark classical which I swear can sing.
