Greatest guitars ever made!

As you may know, i am obsessed with the guitar. I'm looking for opinions on the best one ever made.

Well? get going!

the best guitar is all about personal taste and preferences, myself i find this one gets on with me best, many guitarists swear by the FENDER TELECASTER, it was one of the first solid bodied designs and they say "less is more" - whether it's the best one made is a matter of opinion BUT I LIKE IT!!

All great guitars!  but personally, i like the stratocaster more than the telecaser

Warwick basses.

I like the stratocaster sound but equiped with a Floyd-rose tremolo bar.

You can never go wrong with a gibson.

I am also a big fan of PRS.

I love Rickenbacker bass guitars.

For recording I think I must vote for a Gibson Les Paul. Any of the real ones that wiegh a ton. The sustain on these things is wonderfull and the tone of the thing is just awsome. I think the only inflexability in these guitars is in the electronics. The original PAF pickups of course have a very distinct sound and that may somewhat be limiting. BUT those things come out man! they can be replaced by any number of configurations of any number of pickups. In the end the true measure of a guitars sound is in the unamplified tone(and the Les Paul has an awesome one) since the electronics can change on a whim.

 For jumping around on a stage though Id rather have a nice cool looking lightweight SG.

 For an acoustic probably something I've never played or even seen before like a Macafarri (spelling?) or some other exotic custum built thing.

I've tried Fenders and Gibsons and ESPs, but I'll never part with my Westone Thunder 1A. Even the 2A and later models seem somehow inferior - and it's a cheap Japanese guitar.

My bass is a Fender Katana.

And I wouldn't part with that either
