Guitars


Question Posted Monday February 21 2005, 3:04 pm

Is there really a "best guitar", I mean, who is the best brand? I play the bass but I also can play regular also.

No, there isn't.

The reason is that it all depends on the style you're plaing, and sometimes even the exact song. Every make of guitar has a slightly different sound to it. The Fender Stratocaster has a great, nearly ubiquitous sound. I love the way Paul Reed Smith's sound. The Les Paul from Gibson is highly versatile. You've got solid bodies, archtops, single-coil, humbuckers, different wood types, different kinds of tremolo systems, etc etc etc.

Personally, I have a Fender Stratocaster and a PRS 24-fret model. I love the PRS for a more mellow sound, or for really obnoxiously loud distortion. The strat I love for bright, bitey soloing. I could not use the Strat for jazz - it would sound awful (to my ear, anyway), and some rhythm things I play just sound like crap on the Strat, too. Likewise, if I want a really clean sounding solo, I won't use the PRS.

I mean, would you say that there's a "best bass"? I sure wouldn't. I've got 3 of those... ;)
