The Les Paul is everyone's dream guitar (I've had three), but the strat put a guitar in the hands of "Joe Everyman." Add the celebrity endorsement of some of the greatest rock gods in history, and there you are. Zappa said it best. "It was a red stratocaster with a whammy bar!"

What about SRV, Hendrix, Clapton, Edge, Eric Johnson, Buddy Guy, Ronnie Wood, and Steve Winwood. What type of Gibson do you have though? I favor the 335's myself. Thanks for the comment!

I think for the everyday consumer the Stratocaster is solid but for the professional the Les Paul is the way to go!
