The Best Combination

LPGoth · 04-06-2009, 02:53 PM

i was thinking what the best combination of guitars would be... mine would be an epi standard plaintop with goth les paul......an epi goldtop with the standard plain top......goldtop with goth...plaintop with goldtop? any of yours would be greatly appreciated!

You forgot an SG.

You can't have a great collection without the best guitar ever made

diceman · 04-06-2009, 03:15 PM

Mine would not be 2 Les Pauls, that is for sure.

If you are a total LP nut, I'd think that it would be one w/ Hbuckers and 1 with P90's

Leumas · 04-06-2009, 03:26 PM

How about an LP and a Strat, you cover more bases that way.

pestilence · 04-06-2009, 03:34 PM

My personal choice would be an LP Standard with a "shredder" guitar, like a Jackson Soloist or ESP Eclipse.

Same here - LP and a Strat or Tele.

I own a Les Paul and a Strat but I also want to get something with EMG's and something with P90's

SoundwaveLP · 04-06-2009, 04:23 PM

Two different guitars with two tonal varities. As said above, two LPs would be a good combo if one had Humbuckers and the other P90s. If you dont necessarily need/want two Les Pauls, then your choices are virtually unlimited.

Eric052492 · 04-06-2009, 04:40 PM

When I finally upgrade the pickups on my les paul, I plan on putting something with great distortion in the bridge and something that sounds great clean in the neck since I never play anything distorted with the neck pup. That way I could get a lot more out of one guitar

I find a Guitar + Strings seems to be a good combination MOST of the time......................................Unless you're playing a fender

lp_junkie · 04-06-2009, 04:51 PM

my combo is-5 Standards, 4 Customs, 3 Classics, 1 SG, 5 Strats, 1 Charvel, 2 Ovations, 1 Gibson 12 string, 3 Basses.

A large majority of my LP's are Cherry bursts.

You still need a tele and a hollowbody(ovations don't count!)...

..

Not to mention a jaguar..

lowe · 04-07-2009, 12:46 AM

mine would be epi custom, made metal with SD blackouts (or EMGs 81 85 really doesnt matter) then a gibson les paul classic 1998 as the year with SD alnico II pros neck and bridge. amber color with all gold hardware. then gibson sg. just flat out all original. then fender american road warn strat with either scooped mid pickups (john mayer like) or some fat tex mex's. then an ibanez jem. whatever model the 2000$ + one is (steve vai)and yes i want a 5 guitar combo.

Willy · 04-07-2009, 03:06 AM

Where to begin? Variety of music styles comes to mind: Ultra high output, tremolo, single coil, p-90's, piezzo. With unlimited options and combinations, I think it would be impossible to come up with the ultimate combo of guitars. Although, being infinately rich would help.

Jody · 04-07-2009, 03:36 AM

I like my line up ....
!- Jackson Rhoads "V" w/ Seymour duncan pups and Floyd Rose trem tuned to E flat
!-Ibanez Rg560 W/ Dimarzio Super Distortion,2 single coils,Floyd Rose Trem...tuned to Concert
!-Epiphone Les Paul Custom W/EMG 81/85 Active Tone Mojo..Tuned to Concert/Dropped "D"
!- Dean ML W/Dean Distortion pups, and strung through body.........Tuned to Concert or,Dropped "C"/"D"
