Beautiful Guitar Thread

Same deal as the Ugly Guitar Thread. Guitars can be amazing pieces of art. Which ones make you feel funny in the pants department?

Mayones Regius Pro 6

Soooo freakin sexy. If only I could afford one.

Maton MS-500 50th Anniversary, Maton BB-1200, Epiphone Wildkat, Epiphone Black Royale series (all of them!), Gibson Les Paul Traditional w/ Bigsby, Gretsch White AND Silver Falcon

Silverburst is the sexiest burst:

For me, the top of my list will always be... The Fool

I am determined that one day I will build and hand paint my own replica... Adam, how about a mahogany '64 SG kit? ;)

Weirdbits, Todd Rundgren is coming to Australia next couple of months (not Perth though, whcih annoys me no end...), and as he is the current owner of The Fool, maybe you should have a chat with him...

This one will always occupy a special place in my heart.

I agree with kelooe that the Epi Wildkats are awesome looking guitars, even if mine plays exceptionally badly I keep it around to hang up on the wall :)
My number #1 good looking guitar however is this schecter:
Then again I'm a bit biased cause I own one.

Oops, do I get to change my mind?
I agree with bass guy, the red special is possibly the coolest guitar in the world.

Hi Bass Guy and TCJ,
I was lucky enough to play an original Brian May Red special last year and it was amazing, recorded a short track in a recording studio and it sounded and felt amazing. Wish I got to practice on it first as the neck is so thick was hard to play some chords without large fingers !

Not cool Wokka, I'm going green with envy :)

one of favorite guitars

Me too, wokka.... And is that a Tune bass I see lurking behind the couch????? Love them , too!

A cliché, but a classic.

And any of these.... ;)

Bass Guy, I'm betting you can play the bass solo riffs in My Generation (finger style, natch). I need to get you around to demo some of the basses Dingo Bass has built. We'll talk...

Adam, I am well up for that. Used to play My Generation in a noted cover band back in the 90's... Drop me a line... ;)

Also, this guitar...

And whilst you are at it, Bassguy, I should get you to wrap your sweaty ands around a few of my scratch builds.....

Love the Fool Weirdbits. It has always been a favourite of mine.

tcjbrown - Love the Schecter. I have a very similar one (Damien Elite, same colour). They are a very attractive guitar as well as awesome sounding and awesome to play.

DB, just tell me when you are ready for me to play your works... I would love that...

Now you've got me listening to Ox's awesomeness again, like 1:55 onwards.

Man, I miss him to this day.

Ahhhhh, The Ox..... Talk about driving the bottom end.... Legend!

A lot of people would disagree with me, but I love the look of the Donmo Rustbuckets.

Ive been drooling over these for a while. Gibson Thunderhorse explorer from the show Metalocalypse. If only they made them in lefty.

Gotta love a resonator - as much for the sound as the looks - e.g., Rev. Peyton's...

PRS Dragon II
http://pitbullguitars.com/wp-content..._5839138_n.jpg

Happy to cop any kind of abuse for suggesting this is a beautiful guitar...I know it wouldn't be to everyone's taste and probably isn't an example of "classic" beauty:)

Nonetheless I have always been enamoured with the one-of-a-kind Ibanez Spud guitar of Devo guitarist Bob Mothersbaugh (it was meant to look like a potato but came out looking like a cloud).

the first wife/srv one. so much history in just one guitar, imagine the the music if they grew old together? gone to soon

Danelectro 56 U2 reissue in aquaburst. Just like mine. Incredibly light, great acoustic sound, great plugged in sound, absolutely gorgeous. Can't stay in tune for more than one song, but you can't have everything.

The Jens Ritter Royal. mmmm
http://pitbullguitars.com/wp-content...gp3-index.jpeg

Oh yes! Ritter basses are exquisite!

Left of field but I love this.

Love the Ritter...

Amazing burst on this PRS Custom 24.
http://pitbullguitars.com/wp-content...ti5tmkn88v.jpg

yes that PRS is cool Walrus, like to own that !

What is the name of Harry Manx's instrument? Seen the guy twice live and can't remember...

http://assets.peavey.com/images/small/118006_13533.jpg

This is Devin Townsend's signature with peavey, a 7 string baritone, apparently it's a giant of an axe, I can imagine why!

He got this new one recently, absolute gem I say
