But recently i got an Epiphone Special II and thats been takin up alot more time than my Maton.
I play a JP-90 Fender jazz bass guitar. It's red with a fiberglas hollowbody (weird but true). Three pickups (no active electronics), and a few choice stickers on it from the first year I had it. It's about 15 or 16 years old and doesn't kill my neck after 4 hour practices.
My electric guitar is a cream and brown Danelectro that I got for $300 in some music store's basement in Dayton, Ohio. I really love it but don't know too much about the model itself. It looks straight out of the 50's, but I think they all do.
Honorable mentions from my past: An Ibanez 6-string bass, pinewood & gold plated hardware w/ EMG pickups (boner), Some weird headless bass I got out of Daddy's Junky music's bargain bin for $325 (It wasn't a Steinburger too, it was great), and lastly a "Lady Luck" fretless electric bass I got out of Cambridge Music Center in '95 for only $200. I have no idea what kind it was aside from a "Lady Luck" near the neck. It was VERY nice, and taught me to stick with frets lol!
I also had a blue / purple Tama Rockstar 5-pc. drumset for $750, but alas I sold it to my friend in Ohio years later so he could play them for his Church choir band (No lyin!)

Having said that, there's nothing that really differs electric guitars from acoustic - apart from the sound.
I disagree here. Try easily getting to the higher end of the fretboard on an acoustic. Much easier on an electric! And harmonics are also easier to get from an electric too, IMO. Of course, there are some songs that will sound like ass on anything other than an acoustic.

I don't see why the Fender Strat is so popular... Personally I hate the look of it. There's no elegance with it. I own and play a Gibson Les Paul Zakk Wylde Signature Bullseye. This thing is truly amazing!
