Your dream guitar: post it! :D

Re: Your dream guitar: post it!

Even though I'm not a PRS guy, I find this one really tempting...

Are you sure it's the guitar you want?

Re: Your dream guitar: post it!

Already got it: Schecter goldtop PT with tapped 59 set.

OK, it would be better with a nice birdseye neck rather than the MIM, but still...

Re: Your dream guitar: post it!

I want to get my hands on one of those Deans just to try it out.

Anyway, my dream guitar would be the perfect blend between a Les Paul and a Telecaster. Something with the bite and twang of a tele with the warm mid range of a Les Paul. Would somehow have to take the ergonomics of each one and mold them into a body shape that was perfect for me. Not sure where I'm going to find that one.

With the proper wood selections (and a set of Phat Cats), a Carvin Holdsworth model would probably do what you're describing.

That^
I'de probably have to get it custom (warmoth or sumthing). But someday I will own a silver sparkle tele with binding and a matching headstock. Although it probably won't happen anytime even remotely soon, cause I'm poor as hell.

Second choice (cheaper and deffinately easyer to just find at a store) would be a Muddy waters tele.

Re: Your dream guitar: post it!

IDK if this is what I'd call my dream guitar...but if I had money to burn on a guitar this would be it.

LOST 100 ML

But really, this Time Capsule would do just fine

Another Hamer Standard Custom would be up there too, but I'd have to change some stuff..neck shape, binding, etc.

Me too. I did a search earlier on the web, and there aren't that many out for sale yet. The one I did manage to find was $4100. For that kind of coin, I can damn near get my Murphy Historic.

The Leslie West signature is a limited run of about 100, IIRC...and hence the price. the "Lost 100" ML I posted above alos runs a bit over 4Gs.

The Time Capsules and regular Solteros will run in the 2K range.

I can live with $2k for a Soltero....the used price ought to be $1500-1800 in 6 months or so on eBay.

For that much money you can get the REAL Leslie West signature guitar, a custom shop 57 Les Paul Junior :fingersx:

Re: Your dream guitar: post it!

Holy Grail.. 58 Reissue.. mmm (I dont like flametops despite owning one, and I like thicker necks)

A custom guitar I am slowly but surely acquiring the parts to.

Re: Your dream guitar: post it!

I really want a Gretsch. And when I look a their models, as much as I don't really love the inlays, the Reverend Horton heat signature model is pretty much exactly the guitar I'd build -- TV Jones pups, locking tuners -- if I were upgrading a normal Nashville, so I guess that would be as close to my dream guitar as any produciton model will come. Similarly, the Brian Setzer model, if I took off those silly dice knobs and replaced the pickguard would pretty much be there too.
