This goes out to ALL the musicians in this forum: The guitarrists, bassists, keyboardists, drummers, it doesn't matter. What is everybody's favorite piece of gear ever? I know mine is between my discontinued Charvel guitar with the EMG-81, which i inherited from my dad (rest his soul) and also my Paiste Dimensions 20" Medium heavy Crash.
 
Believe it or not its still my Yamaha APX - 20 electric acoustic .. its been long discontinued but was very pricey when i bought it about 12 years ago. It plays as good as any electric I have.. has a nice fast neck and great sound..
 
mine would have to be my african djembe from burkina faso. a friend of mine went there for a month last year, and i gave him $50 to "get me a small djembe." he comes back with a beautiful drum with (approx.) 14" head, from the village of Ouagadougou...it's just so awesome
 
that would be my US Jackson dk2 it has an x2n in the bridge, tone zone in the neck, with a booster switch and a o.g. floyd rose, with the 18th-24th frets scalloped
 
the U.S. made jacksons are some of the most amazing guitars i can think of..... not including the retardedly amazing companies like Gibson, PRS, Caparison (I assume), and yeah. those companies. You all know the ones.

My ESP M-II Urban Camo and my Line6 HD147 head. That head was the best thing for when I recorded my album. No mics! :)

I want the M-II Urban Camo. Since it's your favorite guitar (I assume), it must be worth the money.
 
I just got a new guitar. Its an Ibanez 7 string RG series. It has DiMarzio pickups, a Floyd Rose Licensed bridge, a noise cancellation switch, and it plays unbelievably. I have a picture of it in the pics thread. (I just put it up.)
 
I absolutely adore my PRS Custom 24, but recently I did an endorsement deal with Mesa/Boogie's agent in Australia and the first thing I picked up was a Recto 2 x 12 box. I'm loving the tone this thing adds to my live rig. It's inspired me to lose my Marshall quad asap!

Once I start living on my own, I will be the biggest gear freak ever. I promise you all.
 
my Custom 7 string. and my Custom Petrucci I cant live without them :)

The best guitars Ive ever played bar none....

the funny part is the Petrucci is the OLP version. I made some minor modifications and I think it sounds BETTER than the actual EBMM Model.

Paf Pro in the Bridge, Tone Zone in the neck, The Tone Zone is wired in Series and the middel position of the 3 way gives me this killer SCOOPED clean sounds. Its awsome. Added Schaller Locking Tuners, and a Graphite Nut. For about $600 a got a guitar that is totally killer !!!!

The 7 string is also a project guitar i built from various parts from ebay. It started out as a cheap ass Rogue 7 string but i Dropped some EMG 707's in it and replaned the neck, re-fretted it with Dunlop 6105's Added some mass to the body by taking a chink out and interting some lead. The added mass gives me KILLER sustain. Its probably the best 7 string ive ever played, and ive owned quite a few.
