I'm bored, so let's see some pics of your favourite, and tell us what makes them special. I'll start.
First up is my Xaviere XV500. This is surprisingly the best sounding of all my guitars by far, and that's why it's one of my faves. Don't get me wrong, it plays very nicely, and looks good too, but the tone that comes out of this thing is just silly. I get Adam Jones' sound to a tee, with this through a SD-1 and into my Crate Blue Voodoo. That's a Duncan Custom in the bridge, and a GFS Crunchy PAF in the neck. Strings are 10, 13, 17, 30, 42, 52, and it's tuned E drop D.
Here is my KV1. This thing is just an all around great guitar, solid, and very cool looking. It was converted to TOM by a previous owner, and I prefer it to a fixed Kahler. It's got an EMG 85 in the bridge, and 81 in then neck. I also use 10-52s on this one, but it's usually tuned to Eb, and sometimes drop C#. The controls have also been modified. It now has a toggle, with single volume, and single tone. I like the position of the toggle a lot. I plan on having it refinished in winter/urban camo very soon.
Finally my Lado Lazer (yes it's spelled with a Z). Handmade by Lado for John Albani, guitar player/song writer for Lee Aaron. I saw it in one of her music videos many years ago, and drooled over it. It finally became mine a year and a half ago. It's somewhat road worn, but still looks awesome, plays well, and sounds kick ass. It's an unbelievable well made instrument, and as far as I know is unique, as in the only Lazer ever made. Those are solid flame maple wings, and a 3 piece flame/birdseye maple nack. I recently started putting 9-42s on this one, and I gotta say it was made for lighter gauge strings, and plays much nicer now. It's tuned to Eb at all times. It's my Slayer guitar. The Duncan Custom with the maple body makes it really cut through. It's not too bright, but definitely not muddy.
