My Ibanez VBT700.

I had a small builder make a Flying V-style for me a couple years ago. I wanted the '58 style neck/body transition, full thickness body with maple cap, and a number of other things.

It's my best playing and sounding guitar. I want to think at least some of that is the combination of build quality and materials, but it's hard to really pin that down. In any case, Vs are very comfortable for me to play, and this one in particular just feels and sounds right.
 
Music Man Luke II, fits me great and just does everything I need it to do...I like having other options in the rack but honestly the Luke for me can do all of it if needed...
 
I've tried it in some guitars and hated it but my Warmoth above has had a '59n in it ever since I made it HH which was not long after I built it. Lots of bridge pickups have come and gone (currently a Jalen Fair Warning which is in the JB neighborhood) but that one remained.
yeah the one that was in my customshop Jackson just didn't sound the same.. I put that down to it being 24 frets so the P/up was in a different "harmonic" spot
 
My Ibanez PS10. Fit, finish, style, feel, sound,...

also own a PS120, and pair of PS60 - the silver sparkle is in the pic with my PS10.

That said, I'd be happy with the PS120; PS10 is slightly better but not enough to justify 3x the price IMO.
