I would love to have the gold on gold Jazzmaster that Thurston uses a bit. It was the one that came from Patti Smith.

Ooooh, that's a nice one. Definitely one my favorites of theirs. I used to want one exactly like that, and then Doug got one and I almost cried. :)

Maybe also the leopard print jaguar(or is Jaguar print Jaguar?) that they had but got stolen.

Oops I think I see what you meant hehe I have black blocks on the brain recently  ::) I had visions of a maple capped black block Bass VI!

But just to add to the debate,,I go for Johnny Ramones ultra rare student Mosrite..and just to be awkward, the blue one that got stolen early on..
