Hmmm, I like the look of a nicely grained bit of plain maple, on the Gibson custom site the Slash sig looks great, especially the detail behind the stop bar (I think... trying to remember).
Not that keen on flamed maple, theres some which are so flamed it seems to much (it is definately possible :P )ie Gibson R0 - take a look at the site (right now I wish I had a vommitting emoticon)

most of the first page was vomitory (except that gorgeous LP), especially that BC Rich with all that garish abalone and fretboard inlay. but the second page, well, now y'all are startin to hit it. Conklin always make the most amazing instruments, just fantastic and beautiful, seemingly the highest craftsmanship i have seen.

I know it's terribly noobish, but this one did make me go "wow". and since Agile already has been mentioned, I thought what the heck:

All it needs is to be a 7-string.

None of these guitars have made me go wow, they're all horribly plasticcy and tacky looking, except the natural explorer :\

I'd have to agree with that for the most part.

More "..Eurgh" instead of "wow"

Very nice Indy!

I looked at the whole range of the Trussart guitars Ratrod posted, and I have to say I really like them as well.

"Steelcaster" with a hollow steel body and a sort of mesh-top- awesome.
