What’s your “all-around” guitar?

[Piing]

Since I stopped gigging that has become less important and I have lots of things that are great at one particular thing. My Suhr Modern is pretty good at most things . There’s not much my RG can’t do either;

Most of my HH guitars have coil options and can cover a lot of ground too.
There isn’t much you can’t do on a Tele either.

I also vote for RG. There isn't much my RG550LTD can't do. A Dimarzio Bluesbucker on the neck with a EP1107 3-Position switch makes it extraordinary. P90'sh flavor in humbucker mode, and beautiful tone on single-coil split. A TremStop saves me having to carry another guitar with a hardtail bridge.

I have a 36 th anniversary in the neck an area 61 in the middle and an Evo2 in the bridge on mine.

An American Charvel is another desire. I’m not sure why I never went with one. I really like where the jack is placed. That’s quite a looker.

Ironically this one is Japanese.

Kiesel Aries AM7 7-string multiscale.

It's got a very flat neck. It sounds very bright, with a bit of low mid scoop to the Kiesel Lithium pickups. Bridge H/bridge S/HH parallel/neck S/neck H wiring.

The other all-rounder would be the red Flaxwood Rautia seen between my Yamaha semihollowbody and Fenix LP copy. The Yamaha Pacifica 1511 Mike Stern is gone, and so is the Yamaha BB bass.

Similar wiring setup to the Kiesel, using SD Custom 5 + Jazz pickups.

my Bacchus G player is probably my most versatile guitar. Roll off the blend and gets a nice humbucker ish tone, roll it up and great single coils. Very great guitar!

Do you live anywhere near inside

I would at least like to try one on one day. Pretty much unobtanium over here.
IMO these are the only ones getting the relic'ed look right (I usually almost hate relic'ed guitars).

You'll need to travel a little further south toward the world of Mickey in central Florida.

If you ever make it to Nashville, there are quite a few shops, along with the Novo workshop, where you can take several for a test drive.

Is that you Rhett?

Nope. I no longer play professionally, and I've never been a YouTuber. I am simply a simulation software and systems engineer with an untreatable case of GAS.

This guitar is the best all-round guitar I have and it gets about 70% of total play between all my guitars.

The Fishman Fluence pickups are very clean and there's two voices on each pickup. It has great range.

You're an AI? Interesting.

Had a USA Govan model. It was pretty poor quality compared to the Japanese model, lots of quality issues. This MIJ I bought from Wildwood Guitars was in perfect condition, set up by Wildwood with my favorite strings.
