We're all here because we love our Fenders, but what guitars by other companies do you love?
I've been looking for a reasonably priced Harmony Rebel myself.... these things look amazing. check out this link, lots of pics.

I'm a snob and only buy Fenders! No thats not true, I've got a few Squiers as well.
But seriously, I have an Epi acoustic and thats it for other brands. I am just not attracted to other guitars as much as Fenders. I've played a few Gibsons and one day I will probably own 1 or 2 but most of the time they never feel right in my hands. Maybe a PRS one day too. I remember those feeling good, but its been a while since I picked one up.

I like Gibson, Epiphone, Jackson, Charvel, and G&L guitars. Unfortunately I do not own any other brands except Fender, Squier, and Kona. Some day I may start buying other brands again, but my budget only allows for certain things and I really love Fender guitars.

While I must say that I own more Fenders than any other brand of guitar, I also own a lot of other guitars, from Arbor to Xaviere.

The Arbor:

The Xaviere:

I just love guitars... about 70 right now. Spread the love!

Is that a tobacco sunburst LP, Arjay? Big John Duncan played one.

Even though I'm a Fender Stratocaster man (50% of my guitars are Fender USA), I also own some other guitars.

Ibanez JEM 77 BFP and Ibanez RG 350 MYE (modded with a better EDGE Lo Pro trem), because I wanted Floyd Rose trems and 24 frets:

Image

Image

Fender acoustics never convinced me (sorry!), so I've got an Ibanez electro-acoustic, a Baton Rouge acoustic and a Republic Delta Rocket resonator:

Image

I got curious by reading reviews of the Burns Cobra and I like the look. So I bought one and really love it:

Image

Just for collector's reasons I bought a 1969 Ibanez 2020 and a 1970 Ibanez 2030 bass. They even sound very good but I hardly play them:

I think Duesenberg are making some pretty sensational Guitars at the moment. My next Guitar purchase will be a Double Cat, like the one Joe Walsh is currently using.
