Wink Who's Guitar is the Holy Grail?
Clapton's "Blackie"? SRV's "My Wife"?

I know that most of us would have a different "Holy Grail"?

Please pick "ONE".

I'm still still deciding myself, but there's a few out there that I can think of:

This is a tough call, but for me it's definitely one of these three:


or

or


There are plenty of others that I'd love to play, and I love the hell out of my own LP, but those three just resonate with me on an almost spiritual level. I guess I just the Paul? (yes I know Ron's is a Zemaitis, and I want one BAD)
