Never have I ever ... [owned]

Fuzzdog

Never owned an SG.  Like the way they look, love the way they sound and feel - just never bought one, for some reason.

I should probably do something about that.

I've never owned a PRS or a Rickenbacker and so far I have still no desire to do so. 

OilCityPickups

never owned a PRS, Rickenbacker, or any Fender 'offsets' apart from a Jazz Bass. Would like A Jazzmaster ... and that may be coming soon ;-)

Never owned a 335. Big awkward ungainly things with the neck in the wrong place.

Never had a tele, must make amends....
Squier or harley benton?

@Sarge Squier Classic Vibe 50s Tele. Awesome neck, if you like a lacquered maple board. 

I've never owned a semi acoustic. GAS almost got the better of me last year when I tried an Epi Casino and an Epi Dot, but I didn't really like the feel of either. Too many years of Strats and Teles I suppose, but the body shapes felt all wrong. 

Never owned a Les Paul despite my favourite players being LP men. Might get one one day. 

Never owned a guitar with a Floyd either. Passed on a late 80s Charvel once (the kid of thing I wanted as a kid) and regretted it ever since. My Strat's served me well, but the way I've been hammering the whammy lately I might need something more heavy duty. 

Guess that's a Floyd-equipped Lester I'll be needing then... (goes to put on tin hat).

F__k Teles. Ugly slabs.

Never had (or needed) a guitar with a Bigsby.

Good on you, Teles are for the people with no soul or imagination, its old! now you dont see people still driving Ford Model Ts do you? Leave the Tele's in the past same a betamax  where they belong.:D

Get a PRS .

Never owned a Tele and, in fact, I've played quite a few and only liked two of them and neither were for sale.

Come, come. That's no way to talk of the Grand Old Lady of guitardom. A Tele is a thing of great beauty. 

How can I convince you? 

Perhaps a gander at the Teles in a certain Hants guitar emporium, while our kids avail themselves of the creche facilities?

Never owned anything with more than 30 frets

Branshen

Never owned a tube amp.

I was struggling to think of something, but that's reminded me - no 335s ! (or PRSeseses)

RaymondLin

Marshall

Fender - amps or guitars

Full size acoustic

never owned a strat

I've never owned a Rickenbacker, or a Gretsch, or a Jaguar, or a Jazzmaster.  And never particularly wanted to.

I've also never owned a 335 or an Explorer; I would quite like to own both of those but they're too big for me.

And I've never owned a 4x12.

Never have I ever owned a:

- locking trem.
- bigsby.
- Gretsch.
- Rickenbacker.
- "true" archtop / hollowbody.
- Anything with more than 22-frets.


I should rectify the middle five. Prefarably via a Black Falcon, and a 325 of some sort.

Neil

Never owned a Tele.

Never owned a Gretsch.

Never owned a Ricky either but do fancy a 360.

Haha, rock on , @mrchi! ;

I've also never owned a Gibson. The double cutaways (SGs?) remind me of a prat back at high school and it put me off them forever. The single cuts look the business (they really do) but even if I find one that's not too heavy, there are two too many volume/tone controls and I prefer a 5-way blade and all switches in the one position. Plus there's no denying the cutaway on a PRS makes it so much easier if you play high octane solos up at high frets!

SG is the one that sticks out as so many artists I like use/used one. but I find it the most hideous of the mainstream guitars, everything about it is wrong, body shape, colour, neck. Just does nothing for me

Dots, Rickenbackers etc always look nice, but I don't know what I'd do with one, just don't think they fit the way I play or the style I play.
