What's the best  ever Fender guitar in you opinion?

Hands down it's the Stratocaster. The Precision bass is truly a fine instrument. The Telecaster is also a very good guitar, but across the board the Strat takes the cake. It is a tremendously versatile instrument even at the cheaper levels. And I know this may sound funny, but with the contouring it is also very easy to play. Plus, why do you think so many other guitar manufacturers have designs that resemble a Strat? The Strat has been in existence since 1954, and will certainly remain as one of if not the most popular guitars in history.

I use Martin MSP4050 SP's on my acoustics, DR Strings PHR10's on my SRV strat, and either Elixir Polyweb Electric Super Light's or Black Diamond Nickel Light's on my '73 Tele. The Black Diamonds have a nice bright sound and I can get 2 sets for the price of one set of the Elixirs. The Elixir tend to last longer, though. The DR's have the best "bluesy" sound - nice sustain and "punch" with great low tones.

I own 3 Ibanez guitars, RG370DX,Jem77VWH and the JS 1200. The RG comes highly recommended, especially if you're into playing rock or metal. Since you're just starting out, try the RG321, it's a fixed bridge,basswood body, H-H PU config. If you want a floating bridge, you can try the RG320 or RG 350/370. If you want something other than the RG, the SZ series comes highly recommended, esp the SZ520.

Fender is a brand of electric guitar. They also make acoustic guitars, amps, and guitar-related accessories. Their electric guitars are distinguishable by these features: \n- a neck that is bolted on to the body, as opposed to glued in. You will see a silver plate with bolts on the back of the neck\n- single-coil pickups at the neck and in the middle, with possibly a humbucker at the bridge. Single-coil pickups look like a single row of silver dots and have a bright, thin sound. Humbuckers look like two rows of silver dots side by side and have a thicker, creamier sound.\n- A thin or twangy sound, of course, because of the pickups and construction\nThe two predominant Fender electric guitars are the Stratocaster, played by e.g. Eric Clapton, and the Telecaster, played by e.g. Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. You can recognize them immediately by their shape, and eventually by their sound if you listen to enough guitar.\n\nThe other 500 pound gorilla of electric guitars is Gibson, distinguished by a glued-in neck, humbucker pickups, and a thicker sound with longer sustain (time that the note will continue to ring after you pluck the string). Their most famous models are the Les Paul, played by Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, and the SG-1, played by Angus Young of AC/DC.\n\nElectric guitarists usually have a strong preference between Fender and Gibson guitars, but some people like both brands for different contexts. Other manufacturers are also becoming more popular, most notably Paul Reed Smith.\n\nIf you have a Fender guitar, especially if it comes from someone who was seriously or professionally into guitar, it might be worth money (or worth learning to play!). On the other hand, Fender makes electric guitars ranging in value from a couple hundred to a few thousand dollars, so it's impossible to say without knowing more.

I think I would go with the Ibanez Tube Screamer. My cousin has one and it sounds really awesome.

Double neck Gibson S.G. \nSunburst 68 slim taper neck Les Paul with mini Humbuckers\nhe had a Danelectro/silvertone guitar that I've seen him play in clips.\nALl these guitars are notable due to the fact you see them referred to as "Jimmy Page" guitars/models when they are advertised on e-bay

Jimi Hendrix, hands down.  Eric Clapton is also great, and I also really like Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and Queen's Brian May, but Hendrix is definitely the all-time best.

peavey is good bang for the buck. don't get cheap fenders (like a squier) or  ibanez - they'll fall apart. the fenders made in mexico ain't bad for a beginner...

I think the Epiphone is a quality guitar.  Yes, it's a poor mans Gibson, but it still has a great sound and you can have just as much fun playing it.  If you gut it and replace the pickups with Humbuckers, you probably won't be able to tell the difference.

Not necessarily true. There are lots of guitars out there, and there are many that sound better on stage than Fenders and Gibsons in my opinion.\n\nIt is actually the combination of guitar, amp, player, and room that will determine the sound. Look at Jimmy Page... he plays everything from $80 Sears Silvertones to $200 Danelectros to $500 Fenders to $6000 Gibsons.\n\nThe problem is that you don't really know what a guitar will sound like on stage until you are there, and that is called experience. There are no short cuts.

Ofcourse it must be humbuckers on both so I'd say the Paul would be my first choice.  SG is no slouch either.  I've had both and enjoyed them alot.

go on fender.com and there you can compare your guitar with the pictures of the ones on there and find out which one it is  that way you dont have to worry about looking stupid by walking in to a music shop with a nice guitar and not knowing the model.

I believe you can find wiring diagrams on the Fender website as well as the Seymour Duncan website for nearly any popular bass or guitar.
