If you could own any guitar from any of your guitar heroes, which would it be?

For me, it's either Hendrix's strat (even though i'm right handed0 , or Page's telecaster
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.

of course i know that, but if you watch him with the Yardbirds or early Zeppelin, you will see his telecaster.

Ahhhhh the Page tele with the dragon paint job pardon me while I drool........but I'd rather have JPJ's triple neck acoustic or maybe billy gibbons furry Dean(now it's a gibson) too many great guitars out there to pick just one.

Yeah SRV's "number One" was pretty damn cool. The body was a 59' strat i believe and I know the neck was a 62' with jumbo bass guitar frets, damn cool.
