Not only because I'm a huge fanboy, but because I've lusted after a LP Custom since I was 15.

There weren't any rules for this thread so if I could have one 6er and one 7 string I'd love a blackmachine of some sort. Granted, I've never played one, but I like guitars that compliment sounds similar to what Misha and Nolly use so I would probably like them.

I'd like a koa/black limba bodied 6 string with a cocobolo neck. For a b7, I'd probably get a light piece of swamp ash for the body and a figured walnut top with a curly maple neck and a ziricote fretboard. I'll never get either of those probably, but I can dream...

Either the Jazzmaster that Kurt Cobain played or a black Jagstang with a tortise pickguard, Dimebucker, and a quarter pounder at the neck, with Jmaster trem.

An eight-string JEM77.

Actually, last night, I had a dream that I bought a JEM. Only a six-string, though. It was a cross between a JEM7V, a JEM77V, and a JEM77. 'Twas beautiful and played ever so nicely. Then I drove a huge truck with automatic transmission, then I crashed it into a tree because its brakes weren't powerful enough to overcome its engine in 'drive'. :scratch:

Either an RG2027, mystic dream JP7, or Daron Malakian's custom painted iceman. don't listen to SOAD that much anymore, but i was amazed by that guitar when i was younger. At least i've got the next best thing: one of their bassists picks :lol:

either a 7 string kxk or brj built to my specs: mahogany body & neck, 1/4" thick flamed maple cap, ebondy fret board, stainless steel jumbo frets, 27" scale, open gear locking tuners of some kind, black covered bkp aftermaths, hipshot bridge, 2 tone 2 volume.

if were takling basses how about a custom fender jazz bass: 35" scale (moar tension!!!), p/j pickup configuration (seymour duncan bassline quarter pounders are a must), mahogany body, set maple neck, ebony fret board, string through, and jazz bass control set up. And lets keep the finish a natural satin.

Custom 8 String, 3 piece work with set neck, 28"-25" fan, Seymour Duncan Blackouts, painted White with abalone binding (like a Schecter Hellraiser C8) but with a smooth body contour (like an Ibanez S - don't even know if this is physically possible, but it would be awesome). Tuned EBEADGBe, strings calibrated at perfect 20lbs tension... Oh, and left handed.

For a 6er, I'd have to say a Gibson Explorer with a curly maple top in tobacco burst. Gold hardware, creme binding, black 3 ply pick guard, and some covered alnico pups. (Not the E/2 though, a regular explorer)

It'd be a sludge-slinging doom machine.

Actually any high-end Jackson, ESP or Ibanez, or Michael Keene's green Washburn (but only because I'm a The Faceless fag c: ).
