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 novelty guitars can be fun, I wouldn't turn one down for a party trick but for me this style is just completely off putting (no offence to Mr Diddley):

I was blissfully ignorant such twisted deformity existed in the universe. (In other words: I don't browse the Gibson catalogue very often.)

? Lol. Neither do i. The Gibo website is like an adult store - nobody really goes in there unless they're looking for something dirty.

HAHAHAHA

I'd probably play one if the opportunity arose, but I don't see myself being able to buy/own a PRS ? The looks are so far from my cup of tea that they border on coffee.... (Or concentrate fruit juice which will literally kill me if I drink it ?)

They're superb guitars but I'm a pretty shallow person and looks count a lot for me ?

With you on that. Bought a PRS SE as an experiment (as documented in and NGD back then). Great guitar. Amazing value for money. Never play it, don't like how it looks or feels.

Yeah, I'd probably never play a PRS either. Well not the Customs with all the flame maple and that. There are a few that are more to my tastes like that soapbar one they used to do and the SE semi-hollow and some of the more vintage looking S2s.
These are just way too flash for me though:

I'm with you on that. But softening a bit (what is happening to me ???) as there are one or two that I have had an eye on

Never a PRS or a Gibson... nor a Jackson V or any other scew V guitar... nor an explorer shape anything. No petrol/oil can guitar either. No guitar that looks like a car either... frikkin nasty shit that.

I agree. Only idiots desire those things...

Haha. Gosh. Any of those guitars that are shaped like something other than a guitar make my "never play" list.

Even the wangcaster. Even the Millennium Falconcaster. I'm with Psean here.

I wouldn't either...
I also think it would cause a stir if I jammed it in church...
I already get funny looks from some of the peeps when I warmup with ACDC or Metallica during sound check... Muahahahaha

I usually walk past the Washburn , Dean , BC Rich and Cort section........

I'd rather push a 10 cent piece up a rocky slope with my nose than be seen alive with a Hello Kitty in the same room as me

AlanRatcliffe

I'll try anything once. God forbid I ever click with a wangcaster, but if it happens, so be it. ?

I own and play a Dean, have owned many good Corts and have played some stunning early BC Riches... I don't currently own any Gibsons or Fenders, but if the right one comes along I won't hesitate.

I don't really like guitars without headstocks,,, they just look incomplete,,
otherwise, anything goes, as long as they sound and feel good
