What guitar have you NEVER played but always wanted to?

The question is raised because i've played just about every major Fender, every Gibson, Ibanez....and i've played PRS, Danelectro.

But i've for some reason always wanted to try a Parker Fly.

Ugly as sin but i've always wanted to play one.

How about you all, what guitar do you want to take for a spin?

I've always liked Washburn Idols and I hear they are sweet guitars to play, I however have never had the chance to wrap my hands around one.

BTW...Parker Flys are pretty sweet. The lead singer/rhythm guitarist in my previous band had one of the higher end Flys and that thing felt and sounded awesome. And it was incredibly lightweight.

I have never played 2 out of 3 of my dream guitars.The Rickenbacker 325 and the Rickenbacker '64 360/12.I have however played my other dream guitar and that is the reverse body '64 Gibson Firebird VII that I could have bought in 1975 for $400 but stupid me wouldn't go out and get a loan for it and I've been kicking myself for it ever since.Of course there's also the '54 Strat although I have played a '57.

Michael Kelly Vex NV, no longer in production so probably won't happen. I've been lucky with about every other guitar a guitarist might want to try. Going to music stores that sell guitars helps and a stop once in awhile at pawn shops can help as well.

I've always wanted a LP Junior for no real reason but I've never actually played one.

I'd like to try a Rickenbacker, I never have. Or a real pre-CBS Fender Strat. It's hard to compare reissues when I've never touched the real thing.

TGS if you ever play a pre CBS Strat you'll want one especially the '62-'65 "L" series,they were the best sounding and most comfortable playing Strats ever made.Anyway of all the Strats I've played the L series are the best in my book.I haven't played any of the reissues to do a real comparison but if they sound and/or play as great as my '65 they are great guitars.

Mosrite
Always loved the Ventures. I was upset when they changed from Fender to Mosrite but I've always wanted to play one.
Played a spectacular 1952 Gretsch once but would love to get my hands on a mid 60's Country Gentleman. Have never played a Rickenbacker either.

I've been playing for 18 years and I had never even touched a Tele until the day I bought the one I have now, beginning of this year.
