The best guitar you've ever got your hands on

Holy shit man, I was crashin' over Ballarat with some people, and this dude brought over his Santana Sig. guitar... I don't really know much about it, but dude, it kicked so much ass!! He had this effects board aswell which he'd made himself and there were so many kickass effects! There were shitloads of different distortions and a heap of trippy effects... !! Yeah... I was obsessing.

...yes, I did feel the need to share this with you. I will never forget that guitar. I feel the need to hunt down that dude and steal it!

Yeah. What's the most kickass guitar you've ever got your hands on?

the best guitar i put my hands on was a rare guitar its called
effector explorer. well what was so special was it looked like an explorer and had some kick ass humbuckers and built on effects. thats right built on effects. it had distortion,phaser,wah,tremelo..ect it even had a tremelo/wammy bar system on it. it was one of the fastest and easiest necks to move around on.the only problem was the weight.the best part about it was that it was only $300

I used to always regard my Jackson Fusion Pro Dinky as one of the best guitars I have ever played but even with endless amounts of adjusting and setting its never felt quite right after I dropped it to A.
We'll see if it changes after I tune it up to E standard and let my new arrival handle the lower tunings.

A gibson explorer. The only, and mean the ONLY flaw that it had was that it didn't have a floyd or kahler of some sort everything else was just fucking perfect

The nicest sounding guitar I have ever played is some $1200 maton that I fucked with a little bit in a gtr store. It sounded REALLY good on clean - only it didnt handle distortion well, it was fucking heavy and their 'adjusted action' was atleast an inch high. Simply put it was a beautiful souding brick.

For sheer nice playability - my Jackson JATXG. It has a nice thin neck on it, so I can get my little fingers around it
