Guild Brian May!
Could probably just about afford one now, but I know its not the perfect guitar for me!
This!
Hopefully when theyre both at school and the nursery fees are gone...and the car is paid for...maybe..then...just...i can get something nice!
I enjoy coming on here but i am often overwhelmed with the urge to punch people who can afford nice guitars and keep showing me photos of them right in the kisser.
And i mean that with much love and affection;)

Gibson Les Paul Standard.
Grew up loving the shape, the sound, the mythology. As ive got older ive become much less fond of HBs and i just look at the prices of these new and think - never buying that.

Can I suggest that you try a Parker Nitefly? The original ones, no longer made, but available 2nd hand. I've tried the expensive USA Parkers (Deluxe) and found the neck too thin. The NiteFly has a chunkier neck, great hardware, and is easy to mod with new pickups if need be. The more expensive USA equivalent (Deluxe, etc), have such thin bodies that apparently swapping pickups is difficult to impossible. And I didn't like the sound or the feel of the Deluxe personally. Heresy, but each to his own!
I remember that Guitar Legends thing being on TV. Funny, all the people the 17 year old me thought were rubbish would be the ones id be watching now and vice versa!
I distinctly remember wondering who the hell John McLaughlin was. And Phil Manzanera too!
I bet thats on Youtube somewhere.
