Since nobody has posted this yet (you should all be ashamed).

I should really be ashamed then, because I don't have a favourite 80's guitar, only an early 90's

Did someone say BC Rich warlock....



& bich....yeah i know natural wood makes them kind of un metal, but i love em.

[FireEagle]

Yes!! That says it all. The Warlock was the ultimate metal guitar to me. I keep saying I'm gonna buy one of the el cheapo bronze Warlocks just to hang on the wall in my music room. Not the one with the campy Lita Ford "widow" headstock either... the original style popularized by the Crue.

Love the cool pics of the 80's metal guitars! Neon Ibanezes... tiger striped Kramers... snakeskin Demartini's.. \m/

Also loved the Scorpions guitars... Mathias Jabs white/black and black/white Explorers with 3 stripes across the body... and Schenkers black/white V's too.

[katorocks]

It's a newer version, but still all 80s. Funky shape, Rising Sun graphic, enigmatic number on the body, Floyd Rose, this baby has it all.

Akira kicks A$$!!!! I someday I hope to own a killer Mosaic. I loved KK Downings red and white V, Crosby's king V and also Schemkers Gibson V. How ever a guitar I remember the most is the Queensryche guitar.

I got the NJ Deluxe, and if you're not against a reverse pointy I'd say it's an awesome guitar
