What is the coolest guitar??

[Easy 10]

 

[Mellotron]

Jimmy Page overall gets a thumbs up from me, but......double necks are a bit excessive dont you think? Can't play both at once so what's the point?

And when you get into people who CAN play both at once (or more!), you get into some really horrible music ---->>>>>

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

this is a thing of beauty

 

[Mellotron]

Completely agreed. Love Gretsches.

 

[Icy Gull]

*sigh* Santana plays a PRS.

Greasy music for greasy people

Let me guess, you have a narrow musical taste coupled with a dislike of latins and their music. Am I close

Now it may surprise you fourteenth that I will have a different answer here...

EITHER

Gibson Casino - As played here by the impeccably cool Daniel Kessler from the impeccably cool INTERPOL.

No such thing as a Gibson Casino. Casinos are made by/branded Epiphone. Could it be a ES-330?

Lovely guitar, all the same

Disliking latin music? Nowhere near. I LOVE The Mars Volta.

I have a sense of humour. I wasn't referring to latinos as greasy.

Narrow? Don't even know where to start on that one.....I hardly think disliking Satana automatically qualifies you as narrow. "Smooth" would have to be up there as one of the worst songs of all time. That's partly thanks to Rob Thomas though.

Apologies. Couldn't remember the name. It's a ES-330.

It is a little confusing, since he plays Casinos as well. The Casino was originally Epiphone's cheap version of the ES-330. So they look alike, as does the ES-335 (which has humbuckers as opposed to the Casinos/330's single coils). Oh and Casinos/330s are fully hollow, whereas the 335 has a block in the middle

I need an adult!

 

[Juan Albion]

This one, surely?

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Now you cant get cooler than that

This thread is about COOL guitars. Surely for COOL it has to be the Tele?

But really, this is the coolest

John Otways double sided, hinged in the middle, guitar! And he plays it both handed, and does somersaults while doing so.

I always rather liked that song.
Tch. Shows what I know.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

The Master

 

[tedebear]

Hmmm - not sure between hubbies Rickenbacker or his Gibson Les Paul...

Hmmmmmmmmm can't choose...

 

[tedebear]

I always thought the Zemaitis guitars were supposed to be the bestest too...Ronnie Wood et al...

 

[Man of Harveys]

Unquestionably the Gibson 335. A beast of rare aural and visual beauty. :saxondale:
