Gibson had SSGs made at their Baldwin piano factory in China for music students and is a copy of a 1964 SG and I picked one up in a liquidation store for only $130.00 CAD. You can find them on eBay for about $200.00 USD. There are also the Epiphone copies which are considerably cheaper. Epiphone is owned by Gibson and I used to have an Epiphone E335 which cost me $800.00 CAD.

It's a good list. Whether or not you think the Strat or Les Paul is better, it depends on what sound you want. My personal favorites are the Les Paul with Humbuckers, Flying Vs, ES-335s, and super-Strats (with a humbucker in the bridge pickup position). Robin Trower went from Gibson in Procal Harum to a Strat on his own songs.

Colton let's see if we can get you dialed in on what you were watching. This video is about the guitar models only, not the maker nor the guitarist. When the countdown got to the Flying V, they showed Jimi playing his because that's the guitar they were talking about. They weren't talking about Jimi Hendrix, or the Strat, or even Fender. They were talking about the Flying V. Did you even notice they showed Lonnie Mack, Albert King and Dave Davies playing their Flying V's? Did you think that when Hendrix popped up he would be on a Strat if they were talking about the Flying V? The beauty of KZfaq is that you can replay any section of a video if necessary. I highly recommend it.

Because the maker of this video clearly has a bias toward Gibsons. Showing Hendrix on his iconic Strat would have been the proper thing to do, yes. It also would have reminded us that one of the best (if not THE best) guitarists of all time primarily played Strats. Jimi played a Gibson about 2 percent of the time and mainly in the studio... the rest of the time, he played Fenders.

Even though i've tried many brands models (ibanez RG's, Schecter Demon 6 and C1, and last but not least Sterling by Musicman JP150), my fave guitars of all time are Fender Stratocaster (pref. HSH) and Telecaster (HH). They just give me all the vibes and inspire me to play more often than the other guitars i've tried.

The versatility of the strat should, IMO beat the LP. Just look at the various guitarists playing it: Mark Knopfler, Jimi Hendrix, Yngwie Malmsteen, SRV, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, John Frusciante, Jimi Hendrix etc etc etc A Strat can be made into sounding like an LP, but an LP can never sound like a strat. The 3 single coils also provide far more options than 2 humbuckers..

Really? Les Paul over a strat? Really?

The strat is far more diverse.

You swear diversity is the only thing that matters. Tone? LP ( IMO ), sustain? LP. craftsmanship? LP. durability? LP. The only thing the strat has over it is diversity and feel. I do prefer the feel of a strat, but the LP is just better.

Curtis Yes, really. Strats are nice, but Les Pauls are fucking awesome.

Travis Brimstone LP more durable than a Strat? Strats can take far more of a beating than the LP, and if something does break, you can easily swap it out. As for craftsmanship, they are pretty much the same. Unless you're talking about custom shop stuff, the standard lines of both those guitars get roughly the same amount of work. And Customizability? Strat. Value for money? Strat.

My favorite is Danelectro baritone; but I'm in love with Telecaster.

The headstock on a Les Paul isn't even Les Paul, and they break if you look at them wrong. Fender Stratocaster - #1

Strat is half a guitar. It’s nothing without pedals. Les Paul’s need an amp and cable. Always No. 1.

Honestly, I like the way the les paul looks better than the Strat. Not saying that the strat isn't gorgeous, but there's just something about the les paul that speaks to me
