Guitar suggestions - is there anything I should try next?

[Philly Q]

An early 80s Hamer special.

I've got one of those too.... I think it would have to be described as a "project" guitar, though....  :?

I'll unproject it for you! ;)

Could be hard work.... it's been under my bed (with all those Warmoth necks   ) untouched for about 10 years

I'm worried how big your bed is Phil as it seems to have a guitar museum under it

Ah well, it's only a figurative bed.   

There are in fact no Warmoth parts under my bed, they're all over the place.

The Hamer, on the other hand, is......... actually under my (literal) bed.  Together with an old Gordon-Smith GS-1, a Chandler (USA) Strat, a Palm Bay Tele neck and body (I think) and (probably) that blue Superstrat I made (if that's not under the bed, I don't know where it is..... :? )

Hey, I like to try new stuff out!  Where's the crime?  :lol:

eh, no crime at all. But most people would atleast TRY the new guitar 1st!  :lol:

Gibson ES-339/359

Edit: sorry, just noticed this was already included on your original list of possibilities - I just thought I'd add it because they're guitars I've always wanted.

What about a Nighthawk - another Gibson model that I've always liked.

I kinda know what that's going to be like, so I'm looking ahead for the next one!  :lol:

I'm glad you've given up on this "never buy another guitar" nonsense.  :P

I meant to say earlier, though, seems a shame to sell the SGR even if you don't "need" an SG.

[ToneMonkey]

For two grand, you could buy some tools and build a few of your own............

...... PRS may go out of business if you do though.

[Twinfan]

Nah, I'm no good at handiwork.  I just enjoy playing them  :)

Philly - I don't need any other guitars, nor to sell the SGR.  I like to rotate the stable a bit to try new stuff.

A PRS DGT is the one that's talking to me most at the moment...

I really think that Philly should put all his odds n sods in a pic on here - I think that his inventory may throw up some very interesting finds...

I'd have to get one of those funny wide-angle cameras they use for school photos.  :|

Waaaay too many switches on that BC Rich for me!

Suhr's may be a bit too Stratty for me, I should probably try one though  :)

try a tyler too- it's hardly scientific as i only tried one of each head-to-head (plus personal preference doubtless plays a pretty big part), but i thought the tyler i tried wiped the floor with the suhr.

The Tyler '59 neck on the one I had was awesome - but I've never tried any Suhrs for comparison.

Short scale mate - 24.5".  Doesn't really suit me unfortunately...

I've heard about them, but don't know a lot.  No website either!
