Lexus, the RR of Toyotas.
Bahco. The Rolls Royce of adjustable spanners (shifters I should say)
Knipex Plier Wrenches trump any adjustable spanner.
If they still made them i’d pick a KingDick adjustable but i don’t think they do and i double the quality is still there in what they do make so….
Well they're the RR of podgers, still going strong.
Wacom - the RR of drawing tablets
Recently I’ve discovered the Sony RX10 M4 may well be the RR of digital cameras - seriously.
The Campagnolo Big One is the RR of corkscrews.
I would nominate the Sykes-Pickavant Hydraulic Puller set and the Record No 36 vice (now painted since the photo):
For example Telecaster. Great guitar would pick it over a gibson and its spendy enough. BUT. Leo Fender designed it to be mass produced using standard dimension timbers and using repeatable techniques for hand or foot operated machines (fretting). Gibsons… A bit shit way to heavy BUT have a prestige. How about PRS?
Hmmm. We've got a 63 Telecaster in at the moment, but also have lots of Les Pauls of various vintages (nothing quite equivalent, though). I'd definitely take the Tele, irrespective of value.
PRS - they're weirdly soulless - they should be great, but I've never played one that I really liked (and they're a bit too muso for my tastes anyway).
