Hey guys if you would have a choice and will be able to get any guitar what would it be?
I really love my Tom Anderson but I always dreamed of one of those!!! Name of the company is Conklin and those guitars are amazing!!!!

That looks like a big piece of swiss chease with a neck .

I love my Tyler and that pretty much is my dream guitar, I'd have to go completely custom with a company like Luxxtone (I really like their ideas) to make a dream guitar.

I have my dream guitar an EBMM JPX-6. I'd take the EBMM JP BFR 7 in Bahama Blue Burst tho.

This Gibson is my dream:

But it's very expensive

I remember seeing Rusty Cooley playing Conklin 8 string some time ago. It would be fun to try one of those out.


This is the one I'm saving for.

Yeah! I am curious what is the deal with weird twisted frets! Never seen anything like that!
Charvel makes amazing guitars!!!!! Great choice man!

being left handed I don't get to try very many, so right now i am hoping that if I can become the guitar player of my dreams it won't matter what guitar i am playing

Ha!!! Good one! I like it! When you will become guitar player of your dream you will not have to pay for guitars you will get them for free !

GOOD ONE RUSSIAN MASTERMIND!!!

iT' same as with chicks

Posted by: jstcrsn Dec 1 2012, 06:50 PM

the low strings become an extended scale guitar for thicker rhythms while the higher strings remain the same for leads

Posted by: Alex Feather Dec 1 2012, 09:03 PM

Oh this is cool! I really want one of those:)!!! Is it comfortable to play?

Posted by: DeGroot Dec 1 2012, 09:18 PM

I didn't notice at first, besides the angled frets, I see the nut and bridge are angled too! I'm guessing the lower strings are designed for a longer scale length for tighter string tension and the higher strings set for a standard guitar length? I can't imagine the precision that goes into getting the intonation right!

I saw these guitars a while ago from a luthier called jesselli they look amazing.

With the fanned frets apparently it gives you amazing intonation giving the strings their perfect tension. I know Andy Mckee uses an acoustic from Greenfield.

Conklin guitars are amazing! I'm with you there. I'm not sure about picking just ONE dream guitar because I really prefer certain guitars for certain things, and I play a lot of different styles... For jazz, blues, fusion though I'd have to pick one of these guitars:



It's a Vigier Shawn Lane Excalibur signature guitar. I'd probably take out the middle pickup but other than that it is PERFECT.

Posted by: vonhotch Dec 1 2012, 10:42 PM

I'm with you this is exactly what my dream guitar would look like. The frets are slanted to give it the benefits of multiple scale lengths. It is suppose to be more ergonomical as well.

Man this is a beautiful guitar!!!! Kinda looks like framus awesome!!!
