Mmmmm I have a 1960 Fender Strat Re-Issue and a 1954 Fender Telecaster Re-Issue and I love them both, they're great guitars but......if money were no object I think I'd have to go for a PRS Dragon..... Limited editions at around £25K....absolutely beautiful guitars, a real work of art.

Hey guys, I'm in the process of learning how to play a guitar through podcasts. If anyone else wanted to learn by watching free videos, then search on iTunes for the following podcasts:

1. Acoustic Guitar Techniques
2. Beginning Guitar 101
3. Left Hand Techniques
4. Warm Ups

They're all by the same podcast-er group so if you find one, you'll be able to find them all.

No Fap, I'm currently as close to being poor as one can get...If the electric people don't come and cut off my lights this week, I'll consider myself blessed...But, I do want to get one, and will get one this year, I just have to wait...

Fap, my sims play a pretty cool looking guitar...Which guitar, if any, do you think it resembles the most..?

despite my policy of not talking to poor people, let me tell you: that guitar is horrible!

the prettier one more close to that aberration could be any of the Gretsch e.g.:

Damn Fap, that is a beautiful guitar...

That website is a mess, and they don't look like they make many guitars...It's probably expensive too...Would you recommend it..?

Any good Gretsch would be over 1,000 dollars, there are some cheaper series made in asia but not close to the beauty and quality of the standard and custom series made in USA. Perhups you could find a used one in ebay some bucks less.

PS: What site are you referring to? i don't understand.

Figured as much...Seems like the only people that get those guitars are people that want them...I think I'm just going to stick w/getting a Dano...But I like the aesthetics on that guitar, that kinda old school look w/the rounded body...
