Tak cutaways are nice, as are Taylors.

I had a Strat for a while and loved the feel, but needed an acoustic for my needs.

I like dreadnaughts and grand auditorium for acoustic.

For electric, I'm falling in love with this:

Favorite acoustic body style for playing - Archtop Jumbo

Favorite acoustic body for sound - Dreadnaught

Favorite electric for playing and sound: les paul with a carved top
(I don't like playing thin guitars, so I go for carved top ones)

bulge? on that guitar? it's perfect in every way. listen to phish.

btw, that's a copy of Trey Anastasio's guitar. That goes for 3750 from resurrection guitars. they'll custom make one if you want it. It's a one off, seeing as how Paul Languedoc only makes the for Trey.

trey's languedoc is custom made by paul languedoc. the guy doesn't take orders or anything, so don't bother.


as i said, the one in the pic is made by the awesome guys at resurrection guitars.

this is the circa 1997 Languedoc Hollowbody Archtop electric guitar. Made from Koa.

This is the 1987 Languedoc Hollowbody Archtop, made out of Padauk i think.

and the 2004 LHA guitar. Made from Koa, this one, from what I've read, has a "divebomb" switch on it..
