Dont't know for sure which of these guitars or amps is #1 as I use them interchangably, but here they are. I would say the Strat with Klein S-5 pickups and the Juke Coda amp are the ones I would have a hard time without.

At completely the other end of the scale, I'm loving this combination:



Squier '51 (neck pickup replaced with Fender Noiseless) into a Super Champ XD, for a total investment of less than $500...

I love to see electrics posted on this forum. Taylor builds some fine ones. The question was asked and I am going to give an honest answer. Each one of mine is a go to albeit for different reasons.




There is a Taylor SB-2 double cut in the second picture, a fine guitar.
My go to amp is a Fender Twin Reverb Custom 15 reissue. It is a very clean amp.

R0, R8, R9, all through the Reinhardt 18. I play them all interchangeably, but if I could keep only one, it would probably be the R8.

Oh, for sure, I'm loving the other end of the spectrum, too: my modded Fender '52 RI into my Reverend Hellhound. But the request was "Show your #1s!"

My go to rig for 15 years; my '87 American Standard Strat, and my '73 Deluxe Reverb that has been "black-faced."

As one hatted mustachioed man to another, nice rig.

Mesa Boogie TA-15 nothing more fun than this. American made Wechter, only made a few of them then it was off to China: hybrid. Got a 1974 Les Paul Custom and never play it since I got the Wechter.
