I'll try and stay focused on what the original question was about: Body shape.

The Ibanez JS/Radius body shape is the most comfortable body shape ever. And it looks killer in chrome! But even that shape wasn't specifically created for Joe.

I really dig Prince's "cloud" guitars. They look amazing in every colour he's got... dark blue, white, yellow, and they're a unique statement.

Another of my all-time favourites is the original Jackson Phil Collen archtop model. That is a gorgeous guitar!

It's a toss-up for me between Johnny Winter's Lazar (besides it being an original design, it has a very distinct and original tone)

...and the Rhoads/Jackson V, one of my favorite shapes.

Both of these guitars are originals, not just a regular model with special artist considerations.

I do have to give a nod to Dime tho, he really did elevate that POS into something no one ever thought would rise above a joke...

I like the Chet Atkins Gretschs. The Brain Setzer model with the dice for controls seems a bit tacky to me on such an expensive.

I also like (not a signature model per se) but the violin beatle bass. I played a vintage one recently (a left handed one strung right), and it was very cool.

It was the funnest bass I have ever played.

ooops i hit the null vote....but i voted for the Petrucci Ibanez. That was an awesome guitar, i loved the feel it had. I never had the chance to own one but visited the local guitar center often to play on it. I still wish John and hashino/ibanez coulda worked out their differences and kept the relationship going...i feel that was a big loss to ibanez. Johns musicman model is ok but im not 100% comfortable with it ...but whats done is done lol. I only hope i can scrape enough change and buy one from ibanez rules hopefully i will capture my unicorn "the JPM90TH" :D
