I've been playing Gibson's for over 15 years and nothing beats the solid raw tone of a Gibson Les Paul Custom, I own two of them, plus an original 64 SG with a mother of pearl tremelo that was given to me by my father....I've also played a good many of B.C. Rich's that were nice... But honestly nothing beats a Les Paul Custom...

hey does anyone really have squier as a fav?

Actually, the older Korean Squiers from the late 80s were equal in quality to Fenders at that time. There are some really nice ones out there with maple necks....I know because I own one! I've customised it with a Seymour Duncan in the bridge and a custom-made pickguard. Check it out:

I also have a Squier X-155 which is a really nicely built guitar. I may change the pickups in the future but this is a cool guitar!:

I am in the market for a new guitar but can't really find that perfect guitar. I've been looking at Jacksons, Schecters and PRS guitars but haven't found that perfect one. If I find one that has the right look then it doesn't have the right components and vice versa. I need a Floyd Rose and I want at the very least a DiMarzio. I'm really thinking about the Phil Collen PC1 signature Jackson...now that's a really nice guitar!

Ooh...forgot to say that I tried out the Charvel Eddie Van Halen signature model and it was incredible! Really awesome neck and tone! The bad thing about it is the price!

build em urself? impressive, would you make me one? !...
Well i have a jackson, and an ibanez...and a les paul, but i prefer ESP to all of them, i simply cant afford a decent one (wich isnt LTD)

I don't run a shop I just build them for myself due to my dissatisfaction with most brand names and I perfer total customization.

Right now I've got cort gb 34a bass 4 strings. It's quite good for now ,but i'm looking for Warlock NJ series. I had oportunity to play these great basses. Why cort ? Because not enough cash for warlock. However for small price it's quite good and it's made preety good.
