Salad.

Unless it's some wicked taco salad and I have a beer or three with it.

Personally, I can't get excited for flame maple tops. They drive the price up, and they look too "pretty". I don't want an instrument that's flat-out ugly, but no museum pieces for me. It's got to be rugged and practical.

Same. Never liked flame-maple tops at all.

Mainly, I never get GAS from teles (hideous body, hideous headstock, and outdated hardware - :ugh1:) or from those giant hollow acoustic/electric QEII sized monstrosities.

Metal guitars... sorry.
If it has a floyd it's not for me.

Get me a Jag, mustang or fazz master any day of the week. Even a Swinger/musiclander.
 
Re: What NEVER Gives You GAS?

Pretty much any kind of shredder friendly guitars and Les Pauls!! Sorry guys.
 
Re: What NEVER Gives You GAS?

les pauls, superstrats, anything with a floyd, mesa boogies, black guitars
 
Re: What NEVER Gives You GAS?

1) strats
2) pointy metal guitars (only exceptions are Explorers and Vs)
3) locking nuts, locking trems... hate them both
4) light flame tops, i want lots of flames or none at all
5) quilt tops... ugly as hell to me period
6) guitars with paintings, tie dye finishes etc.

I'm not big on hollow bodies, except maybe a Thinline Tele. I get GAS for a Gibson once in a whle and then I play one and go "Oh yeah, these things suck..." Same with PRS's...

However, this is the worst:

Re: What NEVER Gives You GAS?

I rarely get gassy for basically any acoustic guitar.

I'll see them in stores and yes, they are cool but even if I get interested the gas "passes" quickly.

My wife has two pretty nice acoustics, a godin seagull for one but I rarely if ever pick it up.

I also hate the look of the Parker guitars, would never play one just based on their appearance, OK call me shallow!

Anything with crazy graphics, stripes, pictures, etc.

To me, you can't top a sunburst strat with a tortoise pickguard.
