Re: 3 perfect guitars
For me...... I need a few more.
ELECTRICS
Strat
Tele
Les Paul
335
ACOUSTICS
Om sized plat top (I have a Santa Cruz OM)
Dreadnaught sized acoustic (something in the flavor of a D28)
Metal body resonator (tuned to open D)
wood body resonator (tuned to open G)
I would prefer to have a few more acoustics for different tunings & I would also like to have 2 more electrics for slide!

gibson v - white w/ black pickguard, alt8/59 pups
jackson RR-1 - white; black binding/bevels, DD/PG pups, sharkfin inlays, string through; reverse headstock - bascially that new matt tuck signature but with sharkfins
and to mix it up;
either an ESP Viper STD; white with black BEVELS; DD/PG;
or
a jim root sig. tele - (not because im necessarily a jim root fan, but because thats the SICKEST lookin tele ive ever seen) you guessed it, white w/ black pickguar. oh hell, lets put a C5/59 set in it and call it a day.
oh and all of them would have at least the 12th fret inlaid with my bands logo; and the jackson would have them staggered after the 12th fret; (ie 15th would be over the E/A string, 17th would be over the D/G, 19th over the A/D, and 21st over the B/E)

it'd work really well for the type of setup you use(HxH in a semihollow)

Re: 3 perfect guitars
Geez 3 guitars thats tough. Hmm I'd have to go with this then....
Definitely have to go with my '83 Kramer Pacer Special w/ SD '78 model pup
I've always wanted a '57 American Vintage Reissue Strat (not sure which color, either black again or sunburst) but then recently I came across this axe and it just blew me away.
and of course an acoustic, I've always enjoyed Martins.

Re: 3 perfect guitars
At the moment for the kinda music I'm enjoying playing and writing it would probably be a
!) White Jaguar with Curtis Novak Pickups a C shape maple neck and rosewood board with 9.5"radius and maybe a changed bridge (TOM or Mustang) maybe a similar mods to angle as the new classic series jags
2) My dream tele being a thinline with mahogany body quilted maple top, maple neck with rosewood board with rectangular inlays
3) Either a 1964 reissue 12 string Ric 360 with vintage pickups rewound to better vintage specs in Jetglo or a Gretsch Duo Jet with TV Jones Filtertrons.

Re: 3 perfect guitars
Basically all i would really need is 3 strats and i have 2 so i guess i'm only missing one... i love my les paul and it sounds awesome but a guitar without the bar just seems to be limiting to me.
Old Fender Custom Player strat, H-S-S config, Custom shop Duncan 78 and Duncan Antiquity Single coils, standard trem, brass nut, vintage strat wireing, scalloped fretboard (not fully but a "custom taper" scallop.. ends at about the 7th fret and is kinda angled so the high strings are more scalloped than the low strings). Thinking about installing a floyd on this guitar tho, standard trems are a huge pain in the ass to keep dune when using the bar...
Charvel San Dimas, with H-H config and floyd. Soon to be installed old JBJ and 59NJ zebras, the necks on these are just great if you find a good one. One knob, one switch, simple and effective no nonsense setup. Will do the custom taper scallop on this one and itll be complete.
All i need now is a Strat in S-S-S config and im set, would need locking trem on this one just pure traditional strat tones.

Re: 3 perfect guitars
3 KxK 7 strings.
An Artisan X30 7 string acoustic made by Emerald guitars.
I'd probably never have to buy another guitar once I had all that.

Re: 3 perfect guitars
Fairly happy w/what I have now, which is much reduced from a few yrs back
93 Strat Plus (Am Std bridge), loaded w/Fralins (SP 43 in bridge)
07 Hwy 1 Tele (saddles replaced w/brass Stew Macs)
Guild D 26 acoustic (low end, but worked on by Wisconsin luthier Bruce Petros-fantastic!)
The third electric would be a Gibson 335. However, if I had a few beers before walking into the store, I could see walking out w/a LP or SG...
