I just started and I have a Epiphone Les Paul Special II. I'm mainly learning Green Day since they're pretty easy, along with Smells Like Teen Spirit. I hope to eventually play metal though.
I got a SX Stratocaster that I modified estheticly. New picksafety (swenglish, but I mean that thing that holds the pickups in place) and new volumeknobs, hells yes.
I usually pick the guitar, crank the volume and improvise blues and rock.

Fender Jazzmaster Elvis Costello signature model is my newest and favorite.

Until I got that guitar, I only had two Ibanez guitars, one beginner series electric and one acoustic electric. The electric still surprisingly sounds good to me if I'm playing a bunch of power-chord heavy stuff (which is rare), but the acoustic electric is just not good. It's very tinny sounding. I'm saving up for a Taylor.
I'm mainly rock and folk (Wilco-ish). I've written some awful, incoherent punk songs too (from my Minor Threat obsession). Actually, I play some reggae too.

A while ago, I got my hands on an Ibanez SA series. I've been looking around for something new for a while, but that's really what I've been playing lately.
Also, I just recently fell into my metal obsession again, and have been playing around with metal and it's ilk as of late. However, I normally just play whatever sounds good to me, which is softer rock.

I have a (brand unknown) acoustic guitar.
I like to play a lot of Beatles, and when I'm not playing Beatle songs, I write my own stuff, but I'm still working on it.

Well, I love to play pretty much anything from Flamenco, Blues, Jazz and Acoustic to Metal/Thrash Metal. So I've had to get a varied range of equipment.

I have a Gibson Les Paul Classic that I would say is the most consistently good sounding guitar that I own, it'll go heavy, it'll do blues.
My favourite for clean is my Danelectro 63, you have to wrestle with it but it sounds great.
I picked up one of these too.
Schecter TSH-1.
It's not the most versatile, doesn't handle distortion that well, but the lead tones at neck and bridge positions are great.
I primarily play blues, though in practice my own compositions come out as heavy rock.
