As much as I love Teles, Ricks, Danos and the like, I can honestly say that there's really only one guitar I think I'd love to have over all others...something that isn't obviously "me", but I've always loved it...a slightly weathered red ES-335 with the big pearly tuning keys.
Just seems like such a tasty, classic "rock and roll" guitar (you strap it on and you just want to play something with a chugging, three-chord rhythm). I've never even held one. I'm a big Dave Edmunds fan, and he always had that blonde dot-neck 335. But I saw a red one hanging in a store once, about 15-20 years ago, and it has always stuck with me for some reason. It just looked like it might play itself if you held it right.

The other stuff is just standard...maybe an old Esquire and a '64 12-string Rick like George Harrison's? Oh, and a Gretsch Sparkle Jet (in green or gold).
I've got a Gibson J-45, about 11 years old. It's so nice and sounds so "strum-y". I imagine it'll only sound better in another 25 years?
