tulsaslim Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 Svet, try this: http://www.saintblues.com/ They've got a couple of them I'd really like. Uncle Al, I agree. I had a custom like yours with the huge baseball bat neck. What a shame. Otherwise a great guitar but it slowed me down so bad on solos I had to get rid of it. And, like you, I'm not a rosewood fretboard man for Fenders. Maple fretboards all the way! I saw where Gib has issued an LP custom with the maple fretboard. If I wasn't convinced it, too, has a big fat neck I'd be lusting after one of those, even at $3500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokestack Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I used to like the look of the first generation St Blues guitars...before they altered and cut down the body shape. The original ones were essentially a Les Paul shaped Telecaster. After the clash of familiar images had passed, the vibe worked really well. I don't like the new smaller body shape so much.

Notes_Norton Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 In no particular order: Casino (I have one - and I wouldn't get rid of my ES-330) Gibson ES-339 SG/G-400 with small pickguard (faded cherry) Line 6 Variax 600 (Don't know if I'd like it or not, but the modeling idea is very tempting) Oh, and before I forget, one of these Parkers (drool - drool - drool - I really love the looks of this guitar, and if the neck is anything like my partner's PM-10 - it's a winner): Bonus tracks (seriously): And I'm thinking about a Blues Hawk (although I'd have to try it first to see if I like the neck) Hagstrom Viking - tried one - loved the neck And I guess I need a real Strat - It's a classic Bonus tracks (just for the fun of it): Dan-o One of those '60s Italian jobs with more knobs switches than anyone knows what to do with something like this one - or perhaps one even uglier than this in a garish color....... (I guess that makes more than five - but then - I have more GAS than cash) Insights and incites by Notes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need five guitars. But I would love to have a Martin OMC. I played a FingerStyle 1 at a guitar shop and just loved the sound and easy playing - it is a finger picker's dream.

NDRU Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I don't pretend to be nearly refined enough to know that one year is actually better than another year, so I'm just picking models. I already have a sunburst MIA Strat w/maple, so I get five additional yay! Gibson Les Paul Gold Top w/P90's Fender Telecaster-blond, maple fretboard, black pickguard Gibson L-5 SG Standard ES 335 Really nothing special, but still a good $12,000 or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyelcrrt1281733995 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 That Zematis may be the first instance where I've realized that, where a tasteful inlay can add to the beauty of a guitar, a cancerous spread like this one should be avoided at all costs. $21K? Chicken feed if it will get that guitar someplace it can be quietly (and permanently) retired. It may be the only guitar I've ever seen that DESERVES lighter fluid and a match...

Randy1281734003 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Dang guys that Zematis looks like it was made from old ceramic floor tiles from a house of ill repute. I guess my wish list would be my to get my 62 Strat back, and to get my old LP back. I'd like 66 D-28 Martin, 39 D18 Martin, 60's ES-335 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I'm not picky about signature series guitars. I'd add a Telecaster, an LP Goldtop with P90's, and maybe a Gretsch Country Gentleman Chet Atkins model, a Satriani Ibanez, and a big Martin D28 Acoustic.
