OK, I just mine yesterday, so y'all probably have 'em too.

So the question is: when you're reading it on the can, which axe do you find appealing, rational or not :D

I'll go first: the Schecter Spitfire on p. 23 :o
 
Yup, I read it on the can almost every morning once I've exhausted Discover magazine's articles for the month.

This month, I'm still pretty enamoured with the Schecter C-1 with the inlay. How can a guitar with that extensive of inlay be so cheap?

Nothing goes together like shoppin and ploppin' :D
 
The Hofner Beatle bass reissue on page 65 and the Gibson Robert Johnson in the middle pull out section.

Any of the Gibson Les Pauls. That's probably the most popular couple of pages when I'm shittin a good one. My real favorite is the entire sweetwater catalog, you know for those really long shits. Great read!
 
I thought the Gibson Gothic IIs looked interesting, mainly because I wouldn't have to install the EMG pickups myself (I'm lazy, what can I say?). But really, I wish MF would have more upscale guitars, instead of 20 pages of epiphones and squiers, followed by Marshall MG amps and peavey Blazers.

:eek:

you coulda gone all day without saying that!!!


At least turn the fan on, will ya??!!! :mad:
 
Les Pauls man....Don't know why, but I dig those....
 
any semi-hollow body guitars look appealing, probably because "semi-hollow" is the feeling im gettin when im off the pot!:D:D:D:eek:
 
Its gotta be the Chambered Ash Tele on page 4, it looks like the rosewood Tele George Harrison had.
And a friend years ago also had a rosewood Tele, just like it.
They are beautiful guitars, heres a shot of George with one.

I've long been drawn to the 60's strat in Burgundy Mist, because purple is just a kick-ass color for a guitar. That Martin HD-28 is also calling out to me.
 
I just want to know what you all are eating that gives you so much time to read on the john. :confused:
 
I like the look of the ESP EC-1000 on pg. 22. I bet in person all that abalone looks awesome. I'd love to hear how the Gibson Les Paul GT sounds with the split coil push pull pots...

I've recorded that ESP, great sounding guitar and absolutely beautiful in person. I offer to buy it off the kid every time he records.
 
John Sykes had a pretty slammin vibrato, and a wicked squeal! Before Zakk! You know he got paid good for that shit! That price is beyond stupid. I want the Kirk Hammet ESP, without the Kirk Hammet. And Left-handed, damnit! And why do they have to read "LTD" on the headstock. Makes it look like an epiphone! What, only George Lynch and Children of Bodom get to use the "ESP" logo?
