What is your favorite guitar company/guitar?

Answer 1

That would be Godin Guitars! I know alot of intertainers who use them, very nice guitars.

We started building guitars over twenty years ago in a village in Quebec Canada called La Patrie. The man that started it all is Robert Godin. Robert still owns the company and he continues to design the vast majority of our guitars.

We are a Canadian company with our head office located in Montreal and we build our guitars in four different locations, three in Quebec and one in New Hampshire. For those of you keeping score, that adds up to six factories spread out over about 1000 kilometers. So why not just have one giant guitar factory? Although there are some obvious inconveniences associated with spreading ourselves out this much, the up-side is that these smaller operations promote a more intimate working environment which gets everybody more involved and this is reflected in the instruments themselves.

Godin guitars are assembled in our Berlin, New Hampshire factory. The necks and bodies are all made in our original location in La Patrie, Quebec.

We are also known for our acoustic guitars which include the following brands : Seagull, Simon & Patrick, Norman, LaPatrie and Art & Lutherie.

From the beginning the company has been more or less divided between our acoustic side and electric side. The electric side of our business was originally that of a parts supplier to other guitar companies. We built their necks and bodies. You might be amazed to find out how many different guitar brands are all being produced in the same handful of factories. We're not telling you this because we want to divulge somebody's secrets but simply to let you know where we're coming from. In any case, what started out as some generic replacement necks and bodies soon evolved into a major business producing finished necks and bodies for many established U.S. guitar companies. The great thing about this is the tremendous experience that we gained building all of these instruments to their various specifications. The down side is that the sub-contracting business is a pain in the neck, so to speak, but more importantly it does not include the best part of building new guitars and that is: coming up with new designs and coaxing them through the process that begins with a sketch and ends with the music.

Answer 2

Gibson and Fender are the most used guitar companies in the world. Rarely do you ever see a big classic rock band, that doesn't use either a Gibson Les Paul, a Fender Telecaster or a Fender Stratocaster. I personally prefer the Les Paul since I have one myself.

Answer 3

Well my first and my bass atm is Encore, it's not a bad place to start, but my next move is defo gonna be Fender Mark Hoppus

Fender all the way. I'm very partial to the Stratocaster.
