Howdy all,
I believe the best guitar lists are always subjective, and based on ones opinions. I’ve been playing for more than 40 years, and my favorite guitar is a Gibson SG… while I’m not really a fan of the Les Paul. I’d give anything to obtain an original Gibson Firebird. I’ve never owned a Stratocaster. Although I have several guitars, my current favorite (in addition to my SG) is a guitar I’ve designed and built myself. I carved an SG style body out of solid mahogany. I machined the bridge, tail piece (inset in the back), and string trees myself. The neck is a Chandler Birdseye Maple Strat style neck. The pickups are a Bill Lawrence L500 Blade, and a Seymore Duncan Cool Rail neck. A three position and pickup split switches give me a variety of different tones. The guitar plays and sounds incredible!
As for acoustic guitars, I absolutely love a 12 string dreadnaught, and I own a doozy – a rare Hohner model, with a sound hole pickup that I designed and built myself (using the coil from an old Tiesco gold foil pickup). Anyway… back to the list – in my opinion, it really depends on feel and what you’re using it for… and it’s definitely subjective! Included are pictures of my SG (a Gibson Firebrand model), my custom build, and my Hohner 12 String.

Look Through Any Window is probably my favorite Hollies songs. That would be great with a MLT cover! I’d also love to hear a cover of the Monkee’s Pleasant Valley Sunday, or maybe Daydream Believer. I’m a big Elvis Presley fan… and there are some Elvis numbers that just beg for some MLT love too!

I have two USB ports in my car… one currently has MonaLisa Twins, and the other has Deep Purple’s entire catalog! LOL. I’m actually going to see them in concert in ten days, and I’ll be meeting the band before the show too! Funny, although I love Smoke On The Water, it’s probably the DP song I listen to the least (because it’s their most played song on the radio).
Anyway, we need to make MonaLisa Twins hugely popular here in the States so they’ll want to come tour here! And yes… we’ll share front row center seats if they do come here!!!
