There are few guitars in this world that have a better pedigree than a Fender Stratocaster. I'd actually be challenged to find one, although Gibson and Guild can get in the fight. I just think that all the monumental music made on the Strat outweighs almost anything.

I learned how to play on a Fender Strat, but I had a really weird configuration. 2 single pickups with a humbucker near the bridge. Not a very common design, but I loved the crap out of that thing. I played it till my fingers bled.

I've since moved onto other types of guitars. I have an Epiphone Casino hollow body, and a Breedlove acoustic. Breedlove was started by the former head luthier for Taylor, so it sounds a lot like them. Which is awesome. I also have a Telecaster buried in my closet somewhere.

But I'll always love my first. My silly, cheap Fender Strat. Hope you guys liked the video as much as I did.

Anyone have any favorite guitars?
