Dude! The top of the line guitars, used by most popular rock bands, would be ?

Answer 1

I assume you are asking about electric guitars? Accoustics are a different kettle of fish....

I'm not up-to-date but I used to be pretty active in the 80s. At that time, and for many years before that, the most popular production guitars were probably the Fender Stratocaster and the Gibson Les Paul.

But even in the 80s, a lot of serious guitarists were getting custom guitars built for them or building them themselves in some cases.

For a more up-to-date answer, visit your local music store or check out a guitarist magazine like Guitar Player.

Answer 2

There are many. It all depends on the style of music, etc. Then you want to figure out acoustic or electric.
If you are going only with rock, then here are a few:
Electric:
Gibson, Fender, PRS, Washburn, Ibanez

Acoustic:
Taylor (I own a 714ce...AWESOME GUITAR), Martin, Gibson, Takamine, Lowden, Lanjeans, and the best acoustic guitar of all...Olson.

Answer 3

Fneder or for the bands that have the money and want to look beter they will use Gibson! Gibson is the best guitar brand out there.

It's a tie between Gibson and Fender. Hamer isn't no slouch, either. For bass: Rickenbacker's wicked.

Les Paul, unfortunately. I prefer bass anyway.
