The bottom one is a Framus. Awesome.
I think it's called a Mohan Veena.Quote:

What is the name of Harry Manx's instrument? Seen the guy twice live and can't remember...
Here's another of The Dev's Framus guitars

Haha I was going to put up that white framus too. \\m/
This is a Micheal Spalt Resintop featuring mementos of the owners grandfather. This must be an incredibly sentimental, irreplaceable instrument. I think it qualifies as beautiful, definitely a one of a kind.

Couple of exquisite bassses for you all...

These definitely qualify, BassGuy! Just gorgeous!
I will try to get details of them for y'all.
Both are beautiful, but the bottom one is special... - Headless, fretless wonder...
Yes that bottom bass is something special.
I saw a YouTube clip of Paul Reed Smith trying to flogg off a few of these beauty's today. It's a NS-15 signature.
I'm not usually a fan of floyd rose guitars, but this is one I wouldn't mind getting my hands on.
Went on a bit of an internet binge on American luthier Randy Parsons last night. This dude builds some astounding guitars for the likes of Jack White and Jimmy Page. Too many stunningly beautiful instruments to show, but these two in particular did funny things to my pants area. :D

Turned over the kitchen calendar this morning, and was met by this beauty...

Yacht Rock! Stu Loasby would approve.
Hahahahahaargh! Good one!
heres 3 from my guitar porn/inspiration folder , the first one i LOVE the design of , cant say why , just do ...... the second tele , just looks sharp to me , personally id change the 2 scratch plate mounted pups for something else tho ..... the jetking bass is funky as , seen one in a hock shop here a while back , stood looking at it for yonkers , was thinking about pulling the trigger on it , but they wanted way to much and the neck was shocking ( <rant> theres a 5 string bass there now , and i swear i can stick my pinky finger inbetween the string and the neck with out it touching , the necks that bad , and they want 4/5ths the price of the bass new for it , AND i told them when it was only half as bad that they need to take it in and get it seen to , only to get told it was upto whoever bought it to do it =\\ , was gonna tell them theyll never sell it like that and why , but it wouldve fell on deaf ears , shame to see a nice instrument go to waste tho </rant> )

That first white one looks like a giant mentos. It sure is a thing of beauty though.
After seeing some of the recent builds and submissions on the PBG site - plenty of them belong here...
This is my pride and joy. Chris Cheney Gretsch. This guitar is bipolar. Clean+ Glassy one minute and then nasty+ rude the next.just thru playing dynamnics. Use overdrive or pedals it gets even better. I know it mite be hard to imagine but it does sound better than it looks. Cheers!

... and such a thing of beauty it is too! ... <drool> ... the magnificent White Falcon (well, the Cheney version of it anyway) ... <envy>! :D
... and of course just as heir advert has always said, "That Great Gretsch Sound"
Watching Spinal Tap this evening and, on top of all the other wonderfulness, was taken by Derek Smalls's double-necked bass. I almost put this in the "Ugly Guitar" thread, but relented.

Fender Select Jazzmaster

Guthrie Govan was playing one of these at the Steven Wilson gig last week. Absolutely beautiful, and sounded great too. This picture doesn't give it justice.
Mmmm, tasty. To add to the Jazzmaster goodness....

I played one of these in New York and was sooooo close to buying it. Alas, funds were a bit short and I didn't want to get slugged with excess baggage charges.
Hey Goatis, ... do you have details on the "mentos" guitar that you posted? (above) ... it has me seriously intrigued (especially with some potential build ideas) but yet I've been unsuccessful in trying to track it down online, myself
Duesenberg retro art deco goodness

Fender Starcaster. Originally only sold from 1976 to 1980, these have just been reissued. Well done Fender. :D

awesome Fender
The only person I've met who has played a Starcaster said it was awful. But he also hated humbuckers, so that might have been part of it.
I had almost completely forgotten about these. Charvel Surfcasters. The bastard child of a jazzmaster and a rickenbacker.

Words fail me.

Oh my. 8O
Elliot, that is a work of art. Like you, I'm speechless.

OK. So some of you know that I'm a bassist and that I would like to build a 6 string fretless after I get some more kit experience under my belt. But when I see a gorgeous weapon like the Ibanez BTB 6F it just makes me wanna go out and buy it.

The brand new Musicman John Petrucci model "The Majesty". I reckon this one will be one of those love it or hate it things, but man oh man, I love it.
