  • Which classic guitar has taken the test of time the best?

    What guitars have been hanging on for decades and are still cranking out great music today? Difficulty - no Gibsons or Fenders that makes things way too easy. I will start with the Ibanez Iceman.

    1975

                      If no Fenders or Gibsons are allowed, then it's Martins.
