Hi all
Well, some background about me. I have been playing awhile for 10 plus years as a bedroom player. I have a Samick Strat Copy with me for like 8 years and i really enjoyed it along with my Peavey Audition 110 amp and a Vantage VG15R which was from my friend. No gadgets since my Zoom 505 broke down and now i have a Fab Metal.
As you all can see, i am really just happy with my basic gear trying to have a hobby all these years in my bedroom but my Samick finally gave in to the years and its basically worn out till the max so i am thinking of buying a new guitar.
I have set aside a budget of 1K ( but i really hope to stay as minimum as possible as i am planning for marriage and all, but i was thinking if the money invest can make/last me for another 8 years or so then why not?) I love metal riffworks from Metallica, ATG, ATG, The Haunted, Racer X, Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, Guns and Roses, A7X, Atreyu etc. I like to play some lead as well.
I am looking for 24 frets, fixed bridge if possible (would prefer no floyd rose as i like to play with drop tunings), humbuckers ( as i hope to after this maybe next year, i would get a better amp and change to emg pups after that). I am not really interested in Epiphone Les Paul, i am really interested in a Eclipse but thats too far off my budget and my gf would knock my head ( planning to get married mah
) I really hope to get a new guitar as well instead of a 2nd hand at the moment.
These are the few selections i have in mind:
RGR321ex
PRS SE Paul Allender
- Which of this do you guys feel would be better for me?
- Is there any LTD models i can take note of?
- Any other models i can take a note of cause i plan to spend 1 day next week going around trying the guitars i have in mind before purchasing
Thank you for the help in advance and hope you guys don't mind advising me over here
