Acoustic BlueRidge BR-160

Dream acoustic. Eric Claptons unplugged guitar. Any 000-28 that’s pre war. I believe his was from the 1930’s. I’m not greedy though. It can be a 1941. Lol

Acoustic- Simon & Patrick woodland sunburst parlor, and Takamine N10 made in Japan
Electric- one of the Telecasters. Probably The MIJ 1969 reissue. I think it was made around 2002.
Dream guitar, I will be trying to build it in a few weeks. Light weight Nashville Telecaster with Strat Neck. Not sure about pick ups yet.
Should say, I got a China made Fender resonator guitar the other day, and It's the only thing I have been playing lately. I love the way it sounds, so I might have a new favorite for a while.

I have 3 and they're all electrics. I have a Schecter C-1 with Dimarzio's that I don't play. My primary used to be a BC Rich ASM Pro. Now my primary is a Jackson SL2Q MAH that I got last year. I still play the BCR now and again.

Dream guitar is either an American custom shop Jackson Soloist or a Goldtop Les Paul.

Favorite in my collection is my Jackson Mick Thomson Soloist, and it's not even close. And it's only a Pro Series, not a USA model. The answer should be my '81 Les Paul Custom, but I just love the Jacksons so much more.

Dream guitar would be a one of Randy Rhoads' Jacksons - as in one actually played by Randy. More realistically, I'd take a USA model Jackson Soloist, but I honestly don't think I could possibly like it that much more than my Pro Series to make it worth the extra money.

Glad to see I have a fellow Jackson fan. It was my first serious guitar and is now again my primary.

Yeah my soloist and my Rhoads models feel very different from each other, but I like them all more than the Les Paul.

The answer to both questions, especially the second, changes frequently for me.

But I gotta go with this one for my favorite in my stable. A killer platform, then modified in so, so many ways by me, on my bench, with my tools, over time, to my personal tastes. I adore this guitar.

Fret shack, that thing is beautiful. Can you give us a little demo of how it sounds? I'm sure you did some pretty trick wiring and switching and it's pretty versatile.
I'm not asking you to do anything fancy, just run through the different sounds for us, plugged straight in.
You could just use the voice recorder on your computer, there will be some dropout, but it will be fine.
Can you get sort of a telly sound out of it? A telly with a tremolo is a really cool sound.
By the way, I have been experimenting on the finish of my LP JR kit build. I decided to try and give it a very aged look, and it's turning out really well. A whole lot of sanding and taping, but I am really enjoying it.
