I need help choosing a guitar

Whitestrat said:
I think whether or not you get a good piece, depends on how good you are at choosing, and how lucky you are that the store has the stock. Like my recent purchase. We all know that EBMM makes good guitars. So good that you could buy them blind, and have a perfectly made guitar.

But having spent 3 hours in the distributor's shop in tokyo, I walked away with a 3.4kg guitar, that's not only quartersawn for the neck, it's also flamed. And of all the guitars in the store (for that model), that was the most resonant one the had.

Choose wisely... you're stuck with it for a while after you buy if you don't like it.:twisted:

hmmm, i guess the moral of the story is, no 2 guitars will feel the same... got it... ok, trouble is, i've settled my mind on getting a esp ltd ec-1000... prob is... no one in singapore has it...( haha, how sad)

so should i

1) just cross my fingers order and hope i get a gd one...?
2) buy something in Singapore that is already available and REALLY feel it?
3) wait for davis to bring in ec-1000 with seymour duncans?

Yeah u r rite . thanks for the info :)
 
Hey khaos, if you want to get the really nice LP sound, the closest to a true Les Paul sound, get an Edwards. I use it myself and heck I'll get one over a Gibson anyday as it is like a fraction of the price. And the workmanship, quality and quality control is extremely superb, as expected from Japanese guitars. :D

Cheers,
WWH
