    I rescued my telecaster from under a friend's bed. It was in a shopping bag, in bits, gathering dust. Some idiot (not my friend) had hand sanded most of the paint off the body. The frets near the nut, looked like somebody had hit them with a hammer and chisel. Took it to a luthier, who put it back together. It still needs a paint job, but it plays great and sounds fantastic. Love my Telecaster :)

    Dream guitar. Strat shape. Neck through, hard tail, dual humbuckers, 2 octave neck, wired like a Gibson with 2 tones, 2 volumes, wide low frets, mahogany body and neck with ebony fret board, all from trees that were struck by lightning. I haven't thought about it much. I need a workshop. And a sawmill. But first, a winning lottery ticket. And yeah man, that old Fender sounds great. The wood improves with age. Lightning really speeds that up.

    Dream guitar would be a 70's Stratocaster, the ones with the large headstock and three bolts. Ritchie Blackmore is one of my biggest guitar heroes and the older I get, the better he sounds to me. You probably feel the same about Jimmy Page. I played mostly Ibanez and other shredder style guitars for the first 15 years of guitar playing, but I've been getting more into classic style guitars (Fender/Gibson) in the last five years or so. Beautiful Esquire, Robert! You into Bond movies? Maybe name her Honey Ryder?

    Im too broke to buy new guitars. I feel like a drug addict. Im always looking around the house for things I could sell to buy one haha.
    My dream guitar...right now is a Gibson Les Paul 50s, AAA maple top. Ohhh god yah. Honestly any gibson les paul would be a dream to receive.
    You’re a kind soul Robert!

    Dream guitar would be a Telecaster. Any and all, there’s just something about the tone.

    I don't have 'A' Dream guitar.
    I want a PRS that I've fallen in love with, hasn't happened yet. I pick them up they are beautiful, exquisitely crafted and setup but always there is something that doesn't click.
    I want a Les Paul that I'm in love with, as with the PRS I just don't click with any I've tried or owned.
    I want my old 73 Les Paul back, but for sentimental reasons, I really didn't play it.
    I want a Tom Anderson, I fell in love with one and didn't get it... /sigh but it's gotta do the same thing.
    I want a Music Man Silhouette, another one that got away and no other one has hit me the same.
    I have a custom design in my head, that would require a machinist, in addition to the rest of the skills. Maybe one day /shrug.
    I could keep going, but reading someone else's dreams might be boring you so I'll leave it there. :)

    • @calebthompson550
      @calebthompson550 4 роки тому

      I can relate. I’ve clicked with 1 prs. But I couldn’t afford it at the time. And I’ve had a couple Gibson’s, but they end up sitting. If it doesn’t demand to be played it doesn’t stay

    • @onenotesolo256
      @onenotesolo256 4 роки тому

      Totally agree. Had a PRS. Didn’t bond with it so sold it. On the day I let it go, we plugged it into my newest amp and it sounded amazing. I’d been thinking about the tone ever since. 5 months later, found a nice McCarty 594 that has put my LP Burst reissue out of job. No, it doesn’t looks as cool as the Lester, and I will still gig the LP or lightly relic’d teles and strats. But the PRS does play itself and sounds stunning for recording. Even the coil taps sound fantastic. Also the best put together guitar I’ve ever owned. So they can grow on you.

    I’m going to one up the guy with the Ibanez Dream JEM - my dream guitar is a 1987 JEM in Lochness Green. The one Vai is holding on the 1987 Ibanez guitar catalog.

  • @chrismikan2631
    @chrismikan2631 4 роки тому

    Oh man I have a white guard Esquire too and love it. A common mod is to rewire the pickup selector so that when you put it in “neck” position, it sounds like a cocked wah. Really cool sound. I think it’s What Billy Gibbons has in his.

    I have a new favorite guitar. The new Gibson Custom Shop 60th Anniversary 1959/1960 Les Paul. They’ve found a way to recreate what a real R9 that sounds as good as the best real ‘59. But right now I’d settle to have any kind of guitar back in my life. That Esquire is one of the best sounding Telecasters I’ve ever heard. Congrats brother!
