It all depends on what you're after. All around for me is the Luke; Pure rock, the EVH/Axis; single coil roots rock, country and blues, the AL. That is just generalizations as each person has their own opinion. Neck shape is also something to think about. I keep on returning to my Luke because it is so comfortable and easy to play. I love candy red on it but there are hardly any colors I don't like that EBMM make. Favs would be candy red, quilt blue or any blue really, amber and the SM Quilted purple sunset. The BFR colors are also amazing especially the black quilts.

Find out which neck shape you like first and go from there, or just buy the first one you see.

My favourite will be:

Mr Horsepower
It has more pickups than the average guitar and the volume goes all the way to 11!


Next would be the Global Warming guitar
You can't be too Earth Friendly than this



But for something available for us mortals, id go with a Black Axis.
You cannot get any blacker than this black


Cheers!

I love Petrucci's. Cant stand those wimpy single coil tones on AL's. Give me METAL! I want to break stuff.

Yeah, Rob, something is deffinitely wrong with You. Not that Petrucci was not great, but ...

For me it's simple - 20-th anniversary silo.

Axis - looks clumsy in all the right ways, and still a very elegant comfortable little guitar - which rocks so hard. What's not to like?
