    I currently own a Fender Stratacoustic and I love it. It's very versatile, I use elixer acoustic strings on it and it gives it such a nice tone. Plugged in it sounds like an electric and unplugged it sounds like an acoustic.

    As for electric guitars, my favorites are the Fender Strat and also Gibson semi-hollow-body models.

    Nah. I am pretty low-income actually. I just saved for it for about 8 years. It is probably, now that I think about it, the only thing of significant value that I own!

    Currently lovin my 60's emperador acoustic... nothin like old wood :).

    Apparantly a fine copy of the hummingbird of the day, whatever it is I love its mellow yet crisp tone - the resonant chamber is perfectly balanced between concrete and dampened... enough reverberation to sound full yet enough dampening to not get muddy.

    The neck needs straightening and 2 new frets, but in terms of pure tonality I'd stand this guitar next to any :). Yea its a 12 string with 6 strings - only has 6 tuners left and it may stay this way :)

    Equal love to my electric... a target guitar that bears little resemblance to what it was. Been very adventerous, no pics, but I'll just say the guitar contains oil paint, candle wax, a piece of my favorite shirt, alot of solder, alot of aluminum foil, and a few cut up allen wrenches. With ALOT of work fretboard intonation is dead on, the neck is perfectly straight, and the action is even and low.
    Given to me by a friend, it was totally busted, now it sings a unique tone with plenty of character and can throw down an angry type of distortion with the mmk45 @ the neck... yet have a sorta vintage strat type of sound with the original single coils in the center/bridge positions.

    I have a strat that I really enjoy, but for me it's all about the Jag! I love those so so much.

    I love my PRS Santana. It's not the most expensive or sharpest axe on the wall, but it's been a good companion for years.
