What guitar will you NEVER play?

For any reason other than money! There's a lot of designs I don't particularly like but I've even been tempted to pick up an eye-gouger on occasion. Crazy no...

What guitar will you NEVER play?

vic

I will never play an air guitar......too light and the tone is pretty bad ?

Actually, there is one guitar you'll never find me playing:

Malkav

Hey look it's a bonafide pedocaster ?

EDIT: I think the thing that weirds me out the most about that guitar is the fact that in the last frame it's had a wardrobe change ???

Norman86

Yeah... I think we need to revise, what is a guitar?
When does a guitar cease to be a guitar?

Coz that pedo thing isnt a guitar in my eyes, even though it may have strings and pickups!

Big-G

Brings a whole new definition to 'playing a riff' when you're actually playing a mid-riff!! ?

Bizarre what some people build/create!

G!

Eew.
Now I’ve got a horrible image in my head of a music teacher walking into a class with that “guitar” and saying: “Today I will show you how to finger A minor”

I’ll go wash my mind in the sink now... ☹

Lesson number two will be on how not to break those pesky G strings.

I Love my Strats. Always have and always will.
BUT.. One frin freekin freezing winter in Chacago I walked into a guitar store that only sold premier instruments and there was this one guitar I'd always dreamed of picking up and playing.
The salesman saw me eyeing it lustfully and said "Hey buddy, ya wanna plug it in?"
Of course I did so he set me up aith a lovely genuine 1953 Deluxe and this "Guitar of the Gods"..
It was like playing a pece of Noah's Ark strung with barbed wire and a neck that puts any self-respecting Telephone Pole to shame.
Eina.. I was humiliated..

Hats off to Stevie.. to play this monster you truly do have to be a god..

Just as it is for me with motorcycles and scooters, I'll try just about any guitar (except a Ritmuller) at least once - you never know what you may find. But buy? That's a different matter. Fakes and cheap 'n nasties aside, it's more a case of certain shapes, styles or OTT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgrade maple investment top twaddle that don't appeal to me.

a Str@t . . . can not gell with those Hank Marvin look-alike guitars !

Nuffing about them that i like.

The feel, the shape, the pick ups . . . nuffing !

Wow - a '77!! if that was an I****z, they'd be pumping it up with stomach gas words like ' Law Suit' model..... Wow to think that this guitar had already been in service for 23 years without any major alterations. Daing - and after nearly sixty years it's still leading the way. Enough said. You don't have to like them, but you do have to respect them.

Just not a guitar that i resonate with . . .

. . . a handfull (to my ears) of muso made them sound good.

Hendrix, Richie Kotzen (two thumbs up, for his GET UP album), Jeff Beck, Rory Gallagher, Eric Johnson (not even all of his work)

Saying that, Leo Fender got it right the FIRST time with his all-mighty TELE.

?

I must say - the one thing that I think Fender got right were the machine heads. Being able to cut the string to size, poke it down the center and tune up, not having it looking like grandma's top lip is brilliant IMO. Any one with any negative comment in this area?? ( and please leave my grandma out of this).
