What's the coolest production model guitar you've played?
I'm not talking about the Gibson custom shop, or an independent luthier who does built-to-order one offs.
I'm talking about axes you would see hanging on the wall in a local shop, if you're local shop isn't Norm's Rare Guitars or Chicago Music Exchange.
Coolest ≠ best. You can take it to mean whatever you want. I bought a Jackson Rhoads style V used for $170, and I just love that pointy little b@stard, and play it almost as much as my cherished Gibson LP. I also modded the hell out of it, and its an absolutely ace guitar now, but what inspired me to do it was just how much I "bonded" with it. One of my buddies, who I learned to play with decades ago, still has / plays his Squier, and swears he'll never get rid of it because it just does it for him.
What about you all?
