recommendations for a new guitar

[nunob]

hey guys.. what guitar would you recommend that has the following features :

25 1/2 scale length
22/24 frets
Rosewood fingerboard
S-S-H configuration
One master volume/tone
Coil tap for bridge humbucker

Budget : 1k

Thanks in advance.

oh yeah one more feature i forgot to add :
Tremolo.. preferably not a floyd.

These sound like the features of Ibanez SA series guitars, and Fender Strats. Both of these two don't come stock with a coil tap switch, but that's the least of your worries, they can be easily installed.

yamaha pacifica 112!, less than $400 can buy a brand new decent one liao... juz look at www.luthermusic.com

save your $600 for an amp and maybe some pedals...

Here's what you want and it's a killer sounding guitar. The only problem is it's slightly outta your budget.

Just saw your post again and sorry. It's a hard tail.

thanks for the replies guys. I don't know about the yamaha.. i'm not too fond of their necks. Had my friend's 112J to toy around with for awhile.. i just couldn't feel at home with the neck. Maybe its just cause i have extremely long fingers (think Paul Gilbert and longer)

I'm greatly interested now in the ibanez sa 260FM model. Does anyone know how much it lists for at sweelee?

And that reverend guitar sure does look to be sounding killer.. wouldn't mind buying one of those the next time i have cash.. which will be a long time from now

the SA260 is a superb player, rightfylly retained in Ibanez's catalogue (the younger sibling- SA160, has been discontinued) to represent a quality instrument without a costly tag. List: $750

with a budget of $1K, the mahogany RG450 should be a value-for-$$ acquisition for you 8)
