Looking for the coolest looking guitar
So I've saved up some money and it's finally time to buy a new guitar. Call me superficial, but the guitar has to look cool and really stand out from the crowd.
Think Rainsongs Black Ice and the red version of 614ce Taylor. Also, it has to be a steel-string acoustic-electric. Bonus points if: - The guitar is a cool color, like white or red. - It's a cutaway (I love playing classic rock riffs on acoustic). Super-Duper Bonus points if: - The guitar is 1000€ and below (I'm a poor student..). To make this more fun, I'll pick a winner and the winner is going to receive my endless gratitude, which we all know is worth more than any material possessions in the world. |

So, the sound and feel don't matter, right?

solution
Buy any cutaway you like and a can of spray paint and some masking tape and you'll have it - and at exactly the right price.
I am not sure what the guitars you mention sell for, new or used, but suspect if you are in Europe that they will be hard to find either way.

This is the coolest (or at least oddest) looking guitar I own - a 1941 Regal-made Recording King. Even has a set of "valve cover" tuners. El Cheapo Chic at its finest.

Welcome to the forum. You've started by asking for disaster. You have money and you want to spend it on something with very minimal standards based mostly looks and the advice/suggestions of persons unknown to you........just mail me your money. In the end you'll be without it and still not have a guitar you like.
I look forward to a well-thought out NGD from you in the future hopefully based on investigation and a decision based on quality of sound, build and some looks thrown in for good measure - not as the primary objective. |

"Cool" has a way of getting old. Buy a standard guitar and it will grow on you.

Do you want a musical instrument or something shiny to impress the girlfriend with?

Here you go:
https://www.amazon.com/Gretsch-5022C...coustic+guitar I thought the Fender Sonoran looked pretty cool with the electric Fender headstock design. Acoustically, they did nothing for me, never tried one plugged in: https://www.amazon.com/Fender-Sonora...coustic+guitar
