Ok, you want to buy a new guitar

Post by i-watermelon john »

What guitar would you buy

Mine would be one made by the Heritage Guitar Co.

http://www.heritageguitar.com/models/se ... wbody.html one of these but custom made ( an all maple including a maple fretboard, ok, I'm different) but if I ever get some free cash I'd give them a call that is for sure :)

I'm loving the H555 :P These are very nice guitars, I have a liking for semi's, I have a Boosey and Hawkes, Angelica from the early 70's, still a lovely guitar

That does look a lovely guitar - and I have never actually even played a semi acoustic at all. Terrible I know!

I would love a Les Pual and I have liked the shape of the Ibanez JS model (Satriani) so maybe I could add that to my collection one day!

That does look a beauty - what was the reason for selling? Just needed the cash or some other reason?

Nasty one there :( Do you think you will ever look to replace it at any point in the future?

I am in love with my ESP, that is good enough for me. Although a friend of mine has 16 fender jazz masters. Don't think he would have another guitar other then a jazz master.

This guitar is easily the best I've ever played, the maple fingerboard is so fast and smooth, it's very different to rosewood, also it has the Delta Tone, which cuts out the tone control and give's the p/u's as they really sound, I don't want to ramble on, but I thought I was to old to get this excited. :lol: :lol:

nice very nice


a telecaster with a good sounding amp is so versatile

I bought mine is 92 and I agree the maple neck is best, which I have


so now post some of your music :)
