Favorite Guitar shape, not playability, but just the look.

I know it's not really considered a music subject per se, but I am an avid guitar player who treats his own guitar like a piece of art more than an axe to express his euphoric psych visions of arpeggio pleasures, I am probably denouncing my own self but that's how I look at them.

Anyway deviating away from the subject that be I would like to know your favorite guitar shapes if you have one, I myself have always been in love with the Gibson Explorer, Mosrite Ventures 1,2, and I would say possibly the classic V or the Jackson Rhoads.

What's your favorites?

 

Any unconventional style axes really......like the ones used by Bo Didley, Otway & Barrett and Batio........and any of the Voxx models.

There are so many. Ibanez Jem's and JS's are some of my favorites, except those ones play wonderfully as well as they look. I also love what Herman Li has done with his signature series, with the grip on the upper cut-away. The E-Gen is also based on the S series with the Edge Zero trem(a variation of ZR trem), so again the guitar is to be played rather than merely to be looked at.


Actually, there's a guitar known as "The Ultra Zone Guitar" which first appeared as a part of the artwork on the cover of Steve Vai's "The Ultra Zone" album.



Later someone actually built the guitar based on this design. Just for the looks, I think this guitar is right up there with the best of them.

 

I still like the V the best, but not necesarily the Gibson.

 

i also like the explorer or the dean ml

 

gibson les paul forever and ever!!!
