- If you are building out your collection of guitars to cover all your tone bases and you only can pick 10 guitars, Baxter and Jonathan give you their choices. Let us know what we are missing our what your 10 guitars would be in the comments!
You two could talk about paint drying, I’d still find it entertaining 🤣. Great chemistry. Oh, and yeah your guitar choices are about right 👍
Right on and thanks a ton Paul!
Everybody needs at least one guitar that is completely different from anything else. This could be a baritone guitar, a Nashville tuned guitar, a resonator guitar, a 7- or 8-string guitar, a guitar with P-90's, anything. It's a must!
i'm late to this party but i love that you included a nylon and a bass. 100% agree
good list! I'm half way there. No P90?
Love my RevStar RS502T with P90s
Of course not. lol
P90 on the les Paul baby:) maybe:) or then 335 things, they can sneak in like a ninja!
No P90!? WTF! that's criminal! call the cops!
I thought we were just talking about electrics at first, and we'd need another 10 acoustics!
I love my P-Bass, but if I could, I'd get a PJ and have the best of both worlds. Agree with most of the list, but something P-90 would have been good too!
i'd have to drop an acoustic from your list to add something with p-90s.
Yes hood call there!!!
It's tantamount to guitar treason to not include a P90 guitar, either single
bridge p/u like on an LP Junior SC or DC? Man, those rockn'rollin' dogear staple soapbar cobalts they are the bomb! How could you leave P90's out? Assassins!
Great list. I’ve got it covered. I thought you were gonna say Jazzmaster. I had one for the past 5 years. Every session it stood there in the rack. Never used it. So I got rid of it a few weeks ago. I don’t recall you saying a P-90 guitar. I think it’s a must have. I use my Gibson Les Paul Special DC all the time. Probably more than my Les Paul.
My next Signature guitar from Warmoth will be a Strat with Tele electronics. Just haven't decided between a regular Strat pickup in the middle position or a second Tele neck pickup, yet.
Great list! My 10 would consist of whatever makes the player happy... as long as they aren't relic'd 😂
As long as we're talking Teles, let's not ignore that beautiful neck pickup!
I do love me some neck tele!!! That’s baxter talking, jonathan is biased toward one:)
If you mention the quack of position 2 and 4 on a strat you gotta acknowledge the funk of the middle position on a tele
I love the tele neck pickup. I don't understand how some people think the strat's neck pickup is better.
Not a lot to argue with here except I'd need a P90 guitar of some type (maybe Rhett Schull will spot me his NOVO?) and a resonator...A '30s National, metal-bodied, 12-fret like Chris Whitley played, or Tyler Bryant currently plays, would work just fine...
And how about a Gibson EDS 1275?...You get the LP and the electric 12-string in one, freeing up an extra spot on the list!...And since we're talking studio guitars, you don't have to lug it to gigs or break your back playing it standing up!
P.S...I'll let the bass player bring the bass...
New title idea - "Naming every popular guitar that's not Sh#T"
I like that one!!!
Pro tip : Always use a capo when doing string changes with a bigsby. when someone showed this to me it changed my life, in the sense that i felt really dumb for not doing this before.
It changed my life and great share! Thanks a ton!
Yoooo good tip
After watching this, I looked at my guitar stand. I have strat, tele, jazzmaster, les paul, SG, special tribute double cut with P-90, 6120, P bass, PRS Vela S2, fretless bass.. I just wanted guitars with different tones and this collection happened.
I have an HSS Strat, SG, small archtop acoustic guitar, P-Bass, a Tele with 2 hot rails and a mandolin. I'm planning on adding an SSS Strat, a normal Tele, a small parlor acoustic and some kind of a jazz box into my collection for it to be totally completed
I think you would be served better by omitting one of the acoustics and adding an electric with active pick ups. If you like to play heavy music or record it, EMGs or Fishman Fluences are a must. I personally would probably go with an ESP Eclipse but this might be the opportunity to add the Floyd Rose for all the EVH and Dimebag craziness. So...maybe a nice 24 fret superstrat would do the trick.
I live near Salem and find the history around the witch trials truly fascinating. Giles Corey (the man who was crushed between two planks of wood) said "more weight" whenever they would try to get him to speak. True badass. Too bad it happened though, many of the people who accused the "witches" came out to say they made it all up.
That does make one a true badass!!! Proper share and thanks a ton!!!
@@CasinoGuitars no problem!
Another reason for me to like Jason Mamoa!
So funny. I came to the same conclusions. I looked around my studio and have all those and a few more. I added an SG, LP with P90s, strat with lipsticks, a HSH Charvelle and a Firebird. Great list guys y’all nailed it plus, y’all make me feel better about my “problem”. 😁
I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I think you need a Super Strat on this list
I thought ibanez RG would make the list.
What does a super strat give you that the others on the list don’t ?
@@TJJJJJJJJJJJ It would allow crazy whammy bar tricks if you had a super strat with a floyd rose. Again, not for everyone. Just an excuse to own one more guitar.
I’d just replace the strat with a fat strat, unless you mean a guitar with a Floyd
@@honkytonkinson9787 Yes I should have said floyd rose... Sorry. But fat Strat also cool.
Good call on the nylon. They have a distinctive feel and voice that you can't get with a steel string. Taylor has a nylon string in the 200 series (214ce -N) that is pretty amazing for the price ($1000) that's a good starting point. Not really voiced for traditional "classical" music or flamenco... but great for everything else. It's on my lust list.
All I read was “10 Guitars You Need” and I agree. I will refer to this video with every purchase I now make!
I think my 10 would be: a Fender Stratocaster (the best guitar ever invented); a Gibson ES Les Paul (so would love one); a 6 string acoustic (I have a Faith Blood Moon guitar which is amazing); a 12 string acoustic; A Fender telecaster; a Gibson L-5; a nylon string acoustic (again I would love a Taylor 812ce-N); A Gibson EDS-1275 (for the 12string electric tones & the 6 string SG tones) ; a Danelectro 59M (unique sound if ever there was one) and a Danelectro Vintage Baritone.
Must you do this to me, I am trying to trim down the boys..
#11 Resonator
#12 Danelectro
#13 Acoustic Archtop. Just think they're cool don't think they're a necessary sound though
I have 26 electric guitars, 9 acoustic guitars, 4 electric bass guitars, 1 upright acoustic bass and a slew of vintage and modern amps in my studio, all high-end gear. Instruments I don't need; what I need is a sound engineer to run the place. If there's any experienced studio engineers willing to relocate to the High Rockies area of Colorado (about halfway between Aspen and Vail) please PM me! Oh, yeah - the 335 has to be red. :-)
I’m a lucky boy because I have all those except for a nylon string. Now I have to get one of those too.
Can't disagree with this list. I can share this with my wife to show her why I need a couple more guitars. Baxter and Jonathan said so!
This list needed more bass guitars
And a modern style electric like an Ibanez RG or a Parker fly
There is actually a very simple formula to how many guitars you should own:
X + 1 = the amount of guitars you should own, where “X” = the amount of guitars you currently own.
People, install a baseplate on a Strat's bridge pickup and you can save yourself an entire Tele. Then, get a Tele, anyways.....
That’s easy 5 Les Pauls, 1 SG, 1 Special, 1 tele, 1 strat and a Gretsch. There you go.
The P-bass is Leo Fender's most important invention. More important than either the Tele or the Strat.
can I say that the bolt-on neck is more important overall?
10 x 2 = Eb🔥😎
Wait for the PRS fanboys to come out and tell you that the list is wrong because it wasn't 10 PRS guitars.
this one goes to 11...
every studio has that 1 guitar that has no business sounding great and playing great...but does. a cheap weird should never be great, great guitar
I always thought the 335 and the Gretsch lived in the same category. What's the main differences?
I’m surprised you guys left off the ESP Richard Z Kruspe signature guitar. It’s really important when you need that classic Rammstein sound that is so huge.
A metal body Resonator guitar needs to be on that list.
All Giles Corey said was " This piece of whitefish was good enough for Jehovah"
Classic line from a classic film
*halibut.
My PRS Custom 24 position 2 and 4 = better than strat 2 and 4. sorry
Now if I or maybe you can, convince the Spouse to let me buy some more Guitars... How about a top 10 on a budget video?
You guys have a baby keeping you up all night too? Cool.. I’m tired..
Thanks for the fun content as always..
It's 8 am on the east coast.
Man been there:)
Those songs do slap. No CAP! HAHAHAHAHA! Daughter taught me that the other day and had me cracking up.
Getting old is funny:)
@@CasinoGuitars funny how? funny like what? funny like a clown?..
I am 51 and 21 31 and even 41 were ALL better ages to be!
Old = loss ignominy one foot in the grave & the other on a windsurfer.
Old school? Olds cool? Old's cruel methinks.... But really, you are only as old
as the woman you feel... good job my wife Sarah is 9 years my junior!
P.S. love the show guys Baxter & Jonno you guys rock deadly proper, keep up the great work, one of the best down-to-Earth no-nonsense no-B.S. guitar channels ego-free & always interesting entertaining & far too much Southern Pines banter is nowhere near enough, peace, respect & be nice to others always!
That was perfect
Uh-
I mean, Poggers!
#11 a resonator guitar needs to be on the studio also.
My 10.) 1999 Guild JF30-12 String Acoustic/Electric, 9.) 1983 Yairi DY-51 6 String Acoustic, 8.) 1962 Gibson Melody Maker D Dual Pickup Guitar, 7.)1980 Gibson Firebrand 335S-Standard, 6.) 1987 MIJ Stratocaster SSS, 5.) 2003 Gibson Sg Standard, 4.) Custom Built by Me Troublemaker Telecaster, 3.) Custom Built by me Les Paul Standard, 2.) Custom Built by Me Les Paul Special, 1.) Custom Built by me Rickenbacker Tribute 4001/4003 Bass Guitar. Honorable mention to my G&L Fiorano GTS, DBZ Barchetta LT, Sterling Silhouette, my 94 Custom MIM HSS Strat and my other 1988 MIJ Stratocaster which all stand by waiting and hoping to be played. But I do believe I have most tones covered. Ya Think
Trading Guild For Supro Amp, so 1988 MIJ Strat moves into top ten now for me. found a 1966 Thunderbolt fully reconditioned and recapped after serving as AMP on USO tours from Vietnam era, will Miss the Guild, But Person receiving it will Play and Adore it as much as I will the Amp. And last week My Guitar and his amp sat unplayed in a closet for far too long. Talk to your friends, ask them Whats in their Closet or Attic and Who Knows what you have they would Cherish that you and I Ignore
P90 Les Paul
Prs 513 (strat plus extras)
Tele
ES
000 or parlor
Big acoustic
Classicaly strung acoustic
Prs 594 or Paf Les Paul
12 string
Gretchy thing with filtertrons
no strat? blasphemy !
You only need two basses in the studio; a precision with flats and a precision with rounds
Interesting list! First 4, check off, I also have LP Jr( nothing like a P-90 guitar)-Hummingbird the acoustic I've bonded with, vintage EB2 is 🔥but yes, P Bass the real deal. Have a vintage Tennessean and they can rock( so can Rickenbackers by the way, not just a janglebox) ✌️
LES PAUL SPECIAL, how did you leave this out! Seriously 😭😭😭🤯
But I need a 12 string baritone resonator to get my tone!
Good point, a must have...:)
Some people might say p90, some might say baritone, some might say lipsticks, piezo or hot rails, but I think you guys covered it. In fact I had forgotten that I was thinking about a nylon.
I'm in the opinion that a firebird needs to be on this list and something with p90s in it.
To add the 5 that should be on here (but I wouldn't boot anything off for)
1. LP Junior/anything P90s
2. Baritone
3. Danelectro
4. Resonator
5. Shredder guitar (anything from a Jem to an Abasi)
I think, a Les Paul, an acoustic, a hollow/semi hollow, and a single coil guitar are bare minimum
I still need my Gretsch, Tele, and D-28... but I am getting a J-45 too, and probably next.
I was so ready to post "#11 P Bass" but I'm so glad you guys covered us bassists. Thanks so much from a bassist that watches guitar videos because they actually exist.
Hey man thank you!!! Love the bass and we need you guys, more than anyone ever says:)
I'd consider these: left-handed guitar, a rock machine with a whammy bar (e.g. Ibanez RG), maybe a baritone guitar. I appreciate that you included a nylon string!
Strat, Tele, Jazzmaster, Les Paul, SG, 335, Gretch, Baritone (Tele, Dano?), D-28, Nylon. You guys are great. "Screw thy self" is now my favorite phrase.
I record a lot and there’s no way I can keep the list at 10. A guitar with a P-90 a must, Rickenbacker 6 string solid body I use a ton. I have a Tele Cabronita which sounds great. You have to have a Taylor which sits in the Mids better than a 000 Martin. I recommend the 214 DLX which has great tone in the studio and not a price killer at $1300. I have two 6 string Ricks but for a 12 string electric option is the Schecter Stargazer and is a great option. If you don’t want to pony up for that a Dano 12 string with solid EQ does the job. Another needed guitar is a Tele Custom it just has a completely different sound at the neck pickup. I also use Fender Roland VG guitars because they can do almost everything from real time alternate tuning to sitar. So like Baxter I have a problem. If you move onto pedals and amps, then it’s a bigger problem. Good show guys!
How do you not have a 🎸 with p90’s in this list ? Definitely a must have
We agree!!!!
Is that painted red guitar in the middle background a Gretsch? The bouts look like it. Would love to see that up close. Any links? or more info about it?
Baxter, I think you might have ADD lol. The ease in which you transition from basses to Aquaman to The Salem Witch Trials is pretty impressive though.
Almost guaranteed and thank you...I sure live the world of randomness out there:)
Great list. My conclusion is 10 is not enough. On your 10 list I would have said Jazz Bass instead of the P bass, only bc it’s more versatile. Even though I prefer the P bass.
Well I have 3 of the top 5. A Les Paul and a D28 are on my wishlist. In the meantime I’ll have to get by with my Martin DRS2 and my Les Paul copy from the Sears catalog
I like that, the Sears catalog bit:)
@@CasinoGuitars it’s close to 40 years old
As many have said already P-90’s are must! LP Special
So I have to say left out some great guitars like ESP, Schecter, PRS, Ibanez, and even dean. I have 11 guitar's in my studio and these are all the brands I use. I have not ever been a fender fan not that I have not tried to like there guitar's but they have just never been my cup of tea. I even had a Fender telecaster that sat in my studio for 2yrs and never got played just collected dust I finally sold it because it just never inspired me or anyone else to get played that much.
Who's studio? And who's tone? Sounds like they want you to chase other people's tones, and not your own.
And I've lived my whole guitar life with neither a Fender or a Gibson.
Whats your favorite go to guitar in your collection?
@@CasinoGuitars Right now among many others, I have three PRS's, a Custom 22, a Santana made for NAMM, and an Al D prism, which has the 57/08 pups in it, with a coil tap, and they get played while the others just look on from the walls.
The Al D is stunning, and has become the one I pick up the most. It's tone and versatility is amazing!
Thanks for asking, and I really enjoy the videos, no matter the subject.
I'd probably be ok with just one steel-string acoustic. Whether it's a Martin D-18, D-28, Furch, Guild D-20 or even Yamaha Red Label, all could do the job for me. You can do a lot with mic and mic-placement to get a dreadnought sounding good at fingerpicking. But I'd want a P-90 guitar in there, tough call between SG with P-90, or a Casino, but I think if pushed I'd go SG. I'd drop the 12-string too because I'd need a Jazzmaster. Or better yet, my Baum Wingman, which plays and sounds better than Jazzmasters to my taste, and the Bigsby is so solid. On Gretsch, many would go 6120, but I think I'd go with a Jet. It's true than 10 guitars is kind of tough, because I would like a 000, a Jazz Bass too (honorable mention). So 12 guitars might be my lower limit for well kitted out guitar studio, if you're including acoustics and basses.
I'd swap the LP out with an SG if it was my list, and add a Music Man :) Congrats on the great content, keep it comin'...
I feel like the 335 and LP is a little cork-sniffy when you failed to include a good old jazz box full hollow outside of the gretsch like an L4, Ibanez George Benson, Godin 5th Ave etc. Jazz Box sounds more different than 335...
To me...

1- Telecaster
a- Classic SS
b- Nashville with Gilmour Mod more modern approach
c- Deluxe style HH with wide range humbuckers CuNiFi
2- Stratocaster
a- 7 point Classic SSS
b- 2 point SSH
c- Floyd HSH - Jem type
d- HM variant HH 7 string something like a Petrucci sig
3- Jaguar SS classic
4- Jazzmaster SS Classic
5- Single Cut LP style
a- HH classic with PAF
b- HH Modern with High output passive or active pickups
c- P90 Variant
d- Bigsby Variant
e- Semi hollow
6- Hollowbody
a- Gretsch falcon or duojet
b- ES335 type
c Hollowbody II PRS piezo
7- Firebird -mini Firebird HHH
8- Bass
a- JBass(Aerodyne)
b- PBass
c- MM stingray 5 string
9- Acoustic
a- Classical
b- 6 String
c- 12 String
d- Acoustasonic Jazzmaster
10 - Rickenbacker
1. Les Paul
2. Stratocaster
3. Danelectro
4. Les Paul Special (P90s)
5. Telecaster
6. ES-345 (or 335/355)
7. Gibson acoustic (J45/J55/SJ200)
8. Gibson/Epiphone arch top for finger style
9. Hollow body Gretsch
10. A jazz box guitar like a Gibson or D’Angelico
Had a pal doing sessions in the 90’s on bass. He had these expensive Ken Smith, Pedulla, DeCava basses and the engineer would alway ask ‘ do you just have a P bass?’ He ended up having to grab one. I have a 74 P bass and neck profile slim jazz bass profile so perfect. Big difference in most baseball neck P basses from 70’s I’ve tried!! Enjoyed video!
I’m thinking a Ernie Ball (BFR) JPXI, a PRS “lunar ice” Silver Sky…hint.. hint…Lol, a Fender Road Worn Deluxe Tele, a Godin Multiac Nylon with midi capability, a Fender VRI Custom Shop Tele, a Normandy es style hollowbody, a Rainsong acoustic, a Taylor acoustic, a Gibson es 335, a Gibson SG w/P-90’s, and another PRS Silver Sky as a back-up….and I’m more than willing to substitute one or two of the Fenders or Gibsons for one or two XOTIC brand strat’s and tele’s.
I'd go for a resonator over the P bass. You need a bass as well as the ten, but it doesn't count. 😁
Can’t just get by with an acoustic 12. You NEED a Ric too. And a P90 guitar... And a National... And a........
I love this and I’m really with you guys pretty much but a couple mentions: what about a big jazz box with a gold foil neck p/u there is nothing better for clean solo tones? Also I have a Gibson B45 12 string from the ‘60’s that has that Lennon/ Gordon Lightfoot mojo tone (not a Guild) plus a Rickenbacker 12. Because you need both! I would love an ES325 and a vintage p90 Casino, but time will tell. ❤
Gibson SG, Les Paul Special with P 90s, 1970s Yamaha SG 2000, Strat, Tele. Jazz Bass would be my choice, but I suppose everyone needs a Precision too. 😁
for me, the list goes Strat (SSH), LP (with SDs), semihollow, 7 string, acoustic, and maybe something with P90s probably an SG, good point about the nylon
Baxter quote of the video, “Salem Witch Trial Yourself!” How do I do that? You guys are 98% dead on the $$. The only egregious mistake is not including the Gibson J-45. How would you copy Keef, Bowie, and Lennon’s Acoustic tones? Also we all know that the D-35 sounds way better than D-28.
Omg no! Get rid of the nylon and the 12 string! How often are you really going to track with these? When you need one borrow it.
Replace the Nylon with a large body acoustic, probably a super jumbo. Replace the 12 string with a P90 guitar, I don’t care which.
I would probably argue the offset / 335 decision. I can get the 335 tone on a LP. You need that offset tone. Maybe your offset has P90’s? Kill two birds and add the 335 back in.
But kill the nylon and 12 string.
Strat
Tele
LP
ES-3XX
D-28
000-18
a nylon string
6120
12 string
P-Bass??????
Seriously need a super-strat or something similar.
I would swap out the Martin 000-D18 for a Gibson LG-2. It’s a different flavor of the small body acoustics and is a completely different animal than the Martin D28.
Looks like many commenters agree, this list could easily jump to 12-15 guitars. I'd add a short bass like a Mustang, a P90 LP or Special type, and a modern rock/shredder with trem. Then another Fender bass. Then another Tele...
12-string? Martin? nah... a Taylor? nah... not them either; despite having the Taylor
surname myself, it is the Aussie acoustics which rule undisputed! Maton CW80 dreadnaughts are the best 12 strings guitars on the planet, tone to die for.
Didyabringyabongalong Station, Central Queensland, Australia.
Archer rocks. In my studio I’ve got my trusty Gibson Les Paul Traditional, EMG loaded epi les Paul custom, thunderbird bass, Takamine 12 string, and 2 6 string acoustics. Needs a telecaster or a strat though…
I laughed my ball off durning the trail. The fishman was hilarious.
I did not know he played bass. Im a Gibson blues lawyer. Playing for over 4 decades (God help me I'm old) i picked up a bass once in my lifetime. It felt so strange i never tried one again. But i know in the studio, every bass player that was any good was using a Fender P-bass.
They must be the best.
2015 50th anniversary D12-35. Best I've heard, easiest to play, stays in tune and it's a 12 fret. You may be surprised. You know what they say about opinions though......
Hey guys, I'm not rich, just an ordinary, average run - o- the- mill musician. I have a collection of 13 guitars and one bass, and I just bought a Gibson and I'm thinking of buying another Gibson only ten days after I bought the previous one, but I do not have debt, I do not use credit of any kind, it's just some money I have set aside and I'm thinking of buying a Gibson Les Paul Standard just about a week after I bought a Gibson Les Paul Classic ...and my Guilt - O - Meter is running high!
I have a Taylor 254CE DLX 12 string that I really love. For a low priced Taylor, it really has a great sound. Of course, the 5 series Taylors are phenomenal, but I’d recommend this as an alternative at a lower price point. Great list!
Actually, the old man said "More Weight!" Thus simultaneously inventing both the Punk AND the Metal attitudes. True Story. Well... the "More Weight!" part is true. But if you think on it a bit you'll surely see I have a point.
I would add a PRS for some heavy tunes, more modern sound... The problem would be: which one to remove from the list? Hummmm Blasphemy ! But remove the 12-string or the second Martin... Hard choices but...
i think a guitar with a lollar p90 in the neck and a Curtis Novack pickup in the bridge...will pretty much fill half of these voids
Ffs...everybody needs at 'least' 10 guitars now. You guys are too funny!
Does everybody playing need all of those sounds? Perhaps some session muso may need to cover more bases than most players in a band situation or certainly the home player.
I guess this vid was truly coming from a store owner. Hey, why stop at just 10.
I wonder on your next vid: "How many pedals does a guitar player need?" If you'd get away with anything less than 20. 💷 😂
Speaking of nylon guitars, if you have small hands, try the Ibanez GA35TCE. It has a smaller neck feel than the usual nylon guitar.
The orange Gretsch 6120’s are cool and all, but I’d rather have a 6136 White Falcon because of Neil Young.
Absolutely agree about 3rd Eye Blind! I have 6 of these (although, my Gretsch is the Tennessee Rose, not the Chet, and the D41, not the 28)
