Stratocaster, Telecaster, Semis (335's, 336's and 339's) and Les Pauls. I have even started to like SG's though for years I wasn't keen.

Not quite sure you got the idea of the thread Mr 38th. "favourite guitar shape" .... singular, not plural  !!   :lol:

I know but I couldn't decide- you know how it is.

First and foremost, superstrat, particularly the Ibanez and Blackmachine outlines (the latter is actually half tele too, but the overall effect is superstrat). The Parker Fly and PRS shapes also rank very highly in my mind

I also have a soft spot for a couple of wilder shapes such as the BC Rich Ironbird:

Les Paul's for me for a standard 'off the peg' shape.

But I will give special mention to the WezV build we have.

Jazzmasters for me. Though i do love the feel of a les paul on a lowish strap. My Hagstrom F200p is a close second though, kind of a mash up between a sg and a strat. So comfortable it's unbelievable.
