You ever play a guitar that has no business being as nice as it is?

The used G&L Legacy Tribute I picked up for $300. I was looking for a Tele and walked out with that "Strat" and have struggled to find one I like as much that's not 10x the price.

The Jackson COW7 I had was a ridiculously good guitar for the £280 I paid for it...

For sure. My Ibanez SZ320. It was $500 new but I see them going for $125 at times on Craigslist. It’s easily one of the best playing guitars I’ve ever played. I’ve maybe touched the truss rod 3x in 15 years, despite moving it up and down the East coast with the varying degrees of humidity.

Just ordered some Devin Townsend Fishman’s for it. Can’t believe I went so long with the stock pickups. They did the trick, but under a microscope they have this horrible high end that I can’t get past.

Don’t know about “no business being nice”, but my £399 Indonesian Jackson SL3X went to the top of my pile as soon as I got it: I love the neck on it, and the top fret access is killer. I had a Performance and a PRS at the time, and I found myself playing the Jackson more than either of them - so much so that when I needed to sell some gear earlier this year they went and I still have the Jackson...

I also started on a electric guitar, now I prefer fretless guitar, after I mastered my techniques. Here something from Iron Maiden.
