[Robert1950]

I made five arbitrary picks of the best known classic USA made electric guitars. First made from 1950 to 1961. If you had to pick one for your personal favourite, which would it be. They are listed in chronological order of release.

Les Paul is the greatest guitar ever made for blues,rock & beauty!!! :banana:

 

[Rumble_b]

I voted Les Paul before I even read the thread!! I love mine. But all the others are fine guitars too.

 

[hoser]

tele.
I've owned all kinds of guitars but my tele has always been my number 1.

 

[davetcan]

A real toss up between the LP and 335 for me.

 

[PaulS]

Yep had the same toss up but went with the LP

 

[Lowtones]

It would be 335 for me. I just love that style of guitar.

 

[GuitaristZ]

stratocaster ftw

 

[geckodog]

335 no question. Works for any style. My fav indeed.

 

[The Nazz Are Blue]

Couldn't decide between Tele and Les Paul but... the LP won.

 

[Cross]

Although I'm in the process of getting rid of the last of my SGs, I still picked it - they're just hella cool guitars :smile:

 

[Guest]

Love all of them, but I'm a SG man.

 

[Mooh]

Telecaster. Into a tube combo...heaven.

That said, I do own and use a Strat, a 335ish Epiphone Dot, and a Godin LG.

Peace, Mooh.

teles and strats..... sorry to all the gibson fans out there, but i absolutely hate les pauls. they're too bulky for me. they dig in, they're heavy and they only have one sound, IMO. but if that's the sound you need then that's good. It's all coming from a fender player

 

[chaoscypher]

Love the Les Paul no matter how old she gets. The SG gets a close second, though.

 

[simescan]

Gotta go with the Tele here...

 

[elindso]

I chose the Lester it's a toss up though.

THe only one I don't want is the 335 I find them too big.

Now a 336 would do fine.

 

[Lester B. Flat]

I'm really diggin' Teles right now but I unconsciously try to make them sound like a Les Paul.

 

[lenbone]

Fav 5

That's not fair....I pick 'em all! Okay then...The Strat .

 

[GuitaristZ]

strats are just...amazing. How come people dont buy more of them

Im currently GASSING for an american strat...without a pickguard...with a nice stain....
