twelve string danelectro

GeneticKiss · 10.23.2006, 04:19 PM

Pretty much every guitar ever invented, except perhaps Les Pauls. Too heavy.

Cantankerous · 10.23.2006, 04:19 PM

i hate les pauls.

RIPfrey05 · 10.23.2006, 04:20 PM

I want something with an aluminum neck.

Savage Clone · 10.23.2006, 04:22 PM

I'm not fond of the Les Paul either, though I do love a heavy guitar.
The Les Paul studio model isn't bad though; it has a cutout on the backside for your ribcage and is much more comfortable than the standard.
Narita from High Rise has a double cutaway Les Paul Special that I like too. I like it because it sounds great and doesn't have that standard Les Paul body shape, which has never appealed to me much.

Cantankerous · 10.23.2006, 04:23 PM

have you ever played a lucite guitar? holy fuck, those are heavy.

gmku · 10.23.2006, 04:24 PM

I want one of Keef's. Any of em. S'long's it's from Keef.

Cantankerous · 10.23.2006, 04:25 PM

i don't know if i could tolerate the smell of burning heroin embedded into the wood.

Savage Clone · 10.23.2006, 04:25 PM

Those lucite things are super heavy. And pretty funny-looking.

I would like to have these:

National resonator (preferably the green kind; I hate that super-shiny nickel finish)
Gibson Firebird
Any nice but affordable baritone
Rickenbacker 12 string 335

i've never seen that.
i think it was blue originally but the laquer has yellowed due to aging making it look green.

Phlegmscope · 10.23.2006, 04:41 PM

If I ever get motivated and buy an electric guitar, the price will be what matters to me, therefore it's probably one of those squiers (jagmaster), or maybe a hagström or something. I have no interest in expensive shit as I have no skills to play the notes properly. With my current acoustic (which, according to my guitar playing friend, is "untuneable") I'm not able to even execute barré chords, no matter where I put my finger or how hard I press the strings.

gmku · 10.23.2006, 04:44 PM

I've always had trouble with barre chords on my acoustic too--and I have one with very good "action," a Taylor, which is considered very "playable" in that regard. I've devised ways to play around that--I've made up weird fingerings and alternate tunings and so on, just to avoid playing barre chords. Keith Richards said once that guitar players are nothing if not lazy; I've taken that as my inspiration and always look for the easy way out of a chord problem.

Savage Clone · 10.23.2006, 04:44 PM

Even Hagstroms are starting to be expensive now. I can't believe it! Not just the nice ones like the Swede either; I have even seen prices going up on the plastic ones!

gmku, if you have a Taylor, I'm surprised you have any issues at all with your guitar! Those things are nice.

Danny Himself · 10.23.2006, 04:48 PM

I want that old blue and white hotrodded Duo-Sonic SY used to have.
