The best LOOKING guitar you own......

Rickco:
Your 13-1/2" Lombardozzi carved archtop double cutaway hollow body is superb. My future best-looker is in progress -- also a 13-1/2" double cutaway carved top and back (Lebanon Cedar)
I'll post it next summer when completed

Rickco:
How is your Lombardozzi braced? Is tailpiece hinged or Sacconi style?

This is spectacular, hypnotizing even!

My 2015 L5CES in "cognac" burst is my prettiest, despite a few finish flaws.

I've said it a million times, but I'll say it again, I love a burst that doesn't go black. That's a knockout, Lawson.

Something in a very different vein. Jazz nylon Koa/Mahogany with onboard Fishman PreFix Pro:

Gorgeous burst, silky spruce, and nice fat flame. Cool books, too.

I'm going to copyright the term "burstgasm."

Its parallel braced and even with 2 mounted pickups has great acoustic volume. I put some shots of the tailpiece. I really like the way he lined the string sleeve for grounding and with Sperzel locking tuners its the easiest fastest string change I ever experienced. Looking forward to seeing your project when its done, the woods look incredible.

I'm late to the party here, but I figured I'd share my entry. Far from the most valuable guitar I have, but this is the one that whenever I take it to a gig, someone always says "What is THAT?"

This is an older Heritage H-157 with three pickups. This is a one-off. The inlays are abalone. The compartments in the back are covered with wood. The pots are push-pull. I don't know where the poker chip came from, but it is original.

The circuitry and pickups were put in by Pete Moreno (RIP). There are two humbuckers and a Phat Cat. The middle pickup can be solo or be blended in. Each humbucker can switch to single coil.

Yes, the best looking guitar I ever owned too..

Joe, you are always the perfect gentleman.

Since I no longer own any of the more exotic examples that I'd have posted in this type of thread in the past I'll select one of my gigging guitars. Not sure if this one is the best looking but it's certainly the flashiest:



Here's the side the audience doesn't get to see:

Keeping this thread alive just for pretty guitar pictures.

[Gitfiddler]

@Danny W. ...Did you sell all of those gorgeous Johnny A.'s?! Besides your L5, those were my favorites in your collection.

[Midnight Blues]

To some, maybe not so, but mine are all beautiful to me:



















Don't know why, but I don't have any pictures of my Washburn D10S-N.

Love the flame and color on my Tal
