i've saved up about $4,000 for a guitar. But I can't decide which of the following guitars I want:
(Links link to pictures of a certain guitar)
Fender Stratocaster http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/7/9/2/267792.jpg
Gibson Supreme SG (Midnight Burst Finish) http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/7/5/9/273759.jpg
Gibson Les Paul http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/7/9/1/374791.jpg
Gibson EDS 1275 http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/0/2/2/314022.jpg
Gibson Flying V http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/9/1/2/273912.jpg
Any other suggestions are welcome. The person who gives me the best guitar, get's the 10 points!

You really have to play at least the Strat, the SG and the Les Paul.
The Fender is entirely different from the other two, as it has single coil pickups and contour body. The Gibsons all have similar Humbucker pickups. You have to decide if you like the Fender sound or the Gibson sound better. The Fender is more versitile, but Gibson are ballsier.
Strat is probably the most comfortable to play.
Depends on what music you're going to play also. Flying V good for blues and Heavy metal.
Then again, With $4GS you can get an Les Paul and a Strat anyway, you don't need a custom shop model.
Myself, I have a Fender Telecaster Speical Edition and Gibson ES 335 paid a total $3100 for both.
Forget about that double neck, a pain in the *** to play. Get a one neck 12 string rather than that.

wow... those are pretty neat guitars... if you are REALLY great, you should go for the Gibson EDS 1275, but if not, i'd say Gibson Supreme SG midnight burst finish... that looks really cool.... but my favorite is the EDS 1275

The best way to find out which guitar is right for you is to try it out before you buy it.
Don't buy a guitar online though; they can't ship it right, 'cause it may have some problems like dents and scratches. Just buy one at your local music store.
