Doug-built Blackmachines.
PRS Dragon. And most private stocks for that matter.
A '59 Les Paul Gold-top.
Anything else in the 5 figure range.

All of these communicate an 'F you' message to me, but for a different reason than the rest of the guitars in this thread :lol:

This is slightly on/slightly off topic, but the pointy guitars in this thread made me think of a quote to whom I have no idea to attribute. Maybe some of you have heard it?

"Saying you hate flying-v guitars is like saying you hate fast cars, you hate big tits or you hate America!"

Perfect guitar if you gonna play in some shady bar and need to defend yourself while playing ^^ Must be pretty horrible with neck dive though.

Positive 'fuck you' vibe: black superstrats with single bridge pickups+ anything V-shaped made by Kxk.
Negative 'fuck you' vibe: entry-level Cort.

Whenever I see a BC Rich, I get the impression that this is the message they *waaaant* to get across, but instead it comes across to me like a teenager trying to be edgy.

You’re not alone on that point. The only BC Rich guitars that Ive found truly menacing looks-wise are Pat O’Briens’ custom shop flying Vs.

"pointy= metal"
I'm so sick of that shit. making a guitar pointy for the sake of making it pointy (a la the warbeast or most bc rich/moser/dean abominations) is dumb. form should always follow function, especially for something like a guitar.
You could not be more wrong. Different people - different body shapes and ways of holding/sitting down with the guitar. A guitar that does not fit you, may be the holy grail for another person. The BC Rich beast seemed an uncomfortable shape to sit down with, but when I did I was amazed with how nicely it fits me. On the other hand the BC Rich Draco and the Jackson RR are the most unbearable things I ever picked up. I acknowledge that they have fans though (not many for the Draco though).
If someone want pointy or traditional shape, he should get one that fits his style and band's look (I own from both styles). The last thing we need is to go back to the 1950-60s when everyone played Les Pauls and Strats. Should we wear suits and comb our hair neatly as well, when playing satanic metal? :lol:
