i have a few guitars, but my favorite to play for years now is a black ibanez custom-built 7string saber, and i loaded it with custom-wound dimarzio blaze7s.
My first and only guitar so far was an acoustic I got for Christmas '99. It's an Ibanez Daytripper 3/4-size. I wish they'd make 3/4-electrics because I have small hands
Nobody wants to hear mine... (ha ha ha I have posted this many times) I have three upper-middle class guitars that I like but my "baby" is worth a fortune only to me. I bought a low-end Korean Ibanez from a pawn shop because... well it played fairly well and had a cool blue-green transparent finish. That guitar has been dropped, kicked, puked on, you name it. Don't take that the wrong way, I take care of my guitars, it was just dumb luck but the toughness is not all I like about it. That guitar is sweet. I have not changed a pickup, tuners... nothing. Solid guitar though all I know about it is that it is an Ibanez EX series. I'd fight hell for that guitar.
1) BC Rich NJ Series 6-String Beast (Which I almost exclusively use for recording solo's)
2) BC Rich NJ Series 7-String Warlock (Used for everything else such as jamming, recording rhythms etc)
3) BC Rich Virgin, ancient guitar, my first 'Real' guitar. Still my favorite for practicing speed and technique.
I use heavy guage strings, without detuning. 11-56 on a six strings. 11-58 on seven strings. Manly for practice. I want to get another seven string for live performances (only) and put a slightly lower guage on it.
I love my Gibson Faded V, and I have A Fender MIM Toronado that I am working on modifying. I love both of them. They offer different things to me, but I would love to get a 3 single coil guitar for a little more variety.
@Aida Melodica - As far as a Smaller scale guitar. I don't know how one would feel, but Fernandes makes a guitar called the Nomad, which is technically listed as a travel guitar.
Also aida - try daisyrock.com. Some are more masculine and most seem quite feminine, but they are supposed to be smaller scale. I like the Blue Shimmer in the Rock Candy Special.
