Its impossible for me to say which guitar that looks the best.. I kinda like the Firebird although I never had one.

..And the strat, LP, SG, Jazzmaster, Jaguar, 335.. oh.. I love all guitars..
 
I must say the strat is the best design for the working guitarist. Removable neck and removable pickguard for modding. Can't beat that.

I was a Gibson guy but not no more. I love strats and kudos to Leo. :dude

If you want to look at pretty guitars go to the Carvin museum and :drool

Here's my sweet Carvin strat.

I have to agree with you there. There are many nice looking guitars, but I really love the look of a nice LP:

I really like the semi-hollow body look. Wildkat, Dot, but I prefer gloss black or red to the wood colors. I prefer the LP to a Strat.
 
Of commercial products, here's the winner:

But I like my Davette the best :-)
 
Found a few at the local shop...

I think this guitar says beauty better than any other. A 1957 ES 350-T with just a little wear, original PAF's, original case. Only $9999.00!

I am more of a plain top guy but I have to admit that is one sweet looking guitar. A very interesting flame on that one.

It's a Custom Shop koa top. This particular LP has "D'Angelico style inlays and tuner keys. I'm just in love and lust with the top. :D
 
Well, let's just end this. These three guitars are the best looking and best guitars ever made, period. And I got 'em! :happy The rest of youze folks might as well pack up and go home.
