Fender Eric Johnson Stratocaster
Released in 2005, the much anticipated Eric Johnson Stratocaster has received high praises ever since. It is extremely easy to see why with all of its vintage feel and Strat appeal. This guitar was designed by Eric Johnson himself and includes many of his personal features and preferences. With a boatload of customizations, this guitar plays and feels a lot more like a custom-shop guitar than the moderately priced production-line guitar that it is. Playability and comfort are top notch as well. Features include a deep contoured two-piece '57 style lightweight alder body, one-piece quartersawn soft "V" shape vintage tinted maple neck, 12" radius maple fingerboard with 21 highly polished medium jumbo frets, extra smooth neck to headstock volute, '57 style body cavities, staggered vintage style tuners, vintage style tremolo with silver painted block and 1957 style string recess, and three special design Eric Johnson pickups with countersunk mounting screws.
Simply put...this is just a seriously, beautifully structured guitar. Combining modern necessities and high-quality components with classic Stratocaster style and quality, the Fender Eric Johnson Strat is an awesome buy. Sustain, impressive tone and pure resonance emanate from this beauty. It may just be the finest sounding Strat that Fender has ever produced. For some, its flatter 12" radius and soft "V' shape neck may take some getting used to, the Fender Eric Johnson Strat is the ultimate Strat.

Epiphone, owned by Gibson, made an affordable alternative to the highly sought after 1962 edition of the Gibson SG, which is known as one of rock-n-roll's mainstays since the electric guitar was first introduced. This guitar beautifully replicates the 1962 model of the Gibson SG in sound and appearance. Like its predecessor, this guitar has a lot of power, bite, unbelievable sound, and everlasting sustain. A deep, well-balanced, rich tone is versatile enough to handle many types of musics, but is best when used for hard rock or metal. No significant difference from an actual Gibson...only the price. It comes with all the essentials of the Gibson 1962 SG that have made it a legend in the guitar world. It is very comfortable and easy to play, so it is suitable for beginners. The guitar is extremely lightweight, and as the frets get lower, the neck gets thinner. This makes the fretboard very fast and very nice. The SG body style allows for easy access to the higher frets.
The Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special Electric Guitar revives Fender's famous Jaguar model with some new improvements. Great variety of sounds can be forged once controls have been mastered. Neither a Tele nor a Strat here. This guitar's sound is distinct and was designed with an intent to complement their sound. Features include alder body, maple neck with new neck pocket cut to provide better pitch, rosewood fingerboard, trem plate moved closer to bridge to increase sustain and break angle, Adjusto-Matic bridge with floating tremolo tailpiece, two new special design Jaguar single-coil pickups offer a fuller tone, two on/off slide switches (one for each pickup), and Fender/Ping vintage-style tuning machines.
Fantastic value. With such an affordable price, this guitar is perfect for beginners or children. The Ibanez GSA60 Electric Guitar gives you a lot of bang for your buck. It is a very powerful sounding guitar, can handle any type of music, has good action, and is very easy to play. Feels comfortable as well. Unbelievable sustain and tone. Variances in sound is incredible. Features include agathis body, maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, pearl dot inlays, 2 Powersound single-coil pickup at neck and mid positions, and 1 humbucker at the bridge.
"science project gone wrong." This science project began when Billy F. Gibbons fell in love with an original Bo Diddley himself gave to him. Combining Bo Diddley's 1959 original Jupiter Thunderbird futuristic design with Billy F. Gibbon's extra special modern ingredients, a guitar made specifically for gritty rock-n-roll was designed. Features include a heavily chambered mahogany futuristic-style body, one-piece mahogany neck, laminated maple top, TV Jones Power'Tron neck pickup, Power'Tron Plus bridge pickup, rosewood fretboard, aged fingerboard, headstock and body bindings, pinned Adjusto-Matic bridge, as well as Schaller straplocks.
When this guitar was first introduced in 1958, the President of Gibson, Ted McCarty, wanted to add a futuristic aspect to the company's image. Thus, the Flying V was born. The Gibson Flying V Electric Guitar is a bold and aggressive guitar with a very commanding presence. It successfully handles all types of music from blues to classic rock to metal. A chameleon of sorts, this guitar truly delivers. A slim-designed neck and body allow your fingers to really soar, and the pickups are spaced perfectly, howling unlike anything else. They are a deadly combination providing both unnatural sustain and power with enhanced lows, crisp highs, and crazy definition. The Gibson Flying V is very easy to play and can be comfortably played sitting down if it suits you. Sounds very exquisite and very wicked. There is a reason why legendary guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix, Lonnie Mack, and Michael Schenker have all surrendered to Flying V's appeal.
