Today, I don't have a hell of a lot of time - and I always try to publish stuff while I have time to at least answer any fairly-timely questions/responses.

So, to meet those objectives, I publish this pretty early - and it's fairly short actually.

For two such important questions, it's remarkably short. I am not actually sure how the hell that happened?

Anyhow...

The questions I try to answer are, "What's the best guitar?" (Which is a silly question that I get with remarkable frequency.) The answer is there is no such thing as one best guitar, it's complicated! The other question is, "Should I learn to play guitar?" The answer to that is pretty much no, not unless you're absolutely retarded. It's pretty much the dumbest thing anyone can do - I highly encourage it!

Umm... That kinda is the entire thing and you don't even need to click! Tada!

Do people actually ask you what "the best guitar" is? For me it's a 90s Ibanez ghostrider w/ an emg in the neck w/ a seymour duncan in the bridge. Separate coil splitters for both. I didn't customize this. My mama bought it for $300 in 1999 after I sold my fender "jag-stang". First guitar where the neck felt good and I just played to play. I'm still playing it today. "Feels good"

edit: give me a day or 3. I'm gonna post my favorite guitar here to the sub.

All the time. I get asked that question probably about once every two weeks, on average. I sometimes get people who want to argue about it. I tend to get what I call 'drive-by arguments' pretty frequently, as well. Yup... Sometimes people will not only ask me that question but they'll also want to argue and fight about my answer.

I'm not kidding. Nope... 'Snot even funny! Stop laughing!

I have so many favorites. Lately, I've been playing a lot with a couple of the PRS models and I'm finding their versatility is really something that I appreciate almost as much as I do their attention to detail. They're very precise tools but the versatility really stands out. I can replicate at the close-enough level quite a lot. I can get a fairly Strat or Telly tone and the tone is often even mistaken for a GLP.

Sadly (?), all of my PRS stuff is from their "Private Stock" line and I'm just not willing to subject them to stage abuses. I'd also be livid if someone stole one.
