Lol... urhz... more info?

Like what gear you already have, and are you satisfied / not satisfied with something? Music you play? Enjoy listening to?

 

[ThisIsTheEnd]

Actually i narrowed down to either epiphone sg special or roland cube 20x. I listen to virtually any genre but for now i'm playing more of punk, rock and metal. I'm on abit of a budget lol. I have an esp ltd m-10 and some nameless amp?(lol)

 

[leecs]

What do you mean guitar no good? as in spoilt or........

 

[ThisIsTheEnd]

going to break down soon? And the swee lee sale, how much % off is the above guitar mentioned? Is there even any? Do you think there will be any left? Why am i asking so many questions?

 

[naviros]

Buy amp larz... Can make your ESP sound wonderful... cash limited is how limited?

Buy the amp, if really cmi then switch some pickups... You don't switch your amp you'll foreva be unhappy with wateva guitar you buy larz...

Haha but you know, there are 2 screws for the jack on the guitar, one of them went mysteriously missing after my little brother came out of my room one day. And if i were to buy the guitar, would there be any discount. SORRY FOR ASKING SO MANY QUESTIONS! lol

Its called a clearance sale for a reason...

But yes, there will be a 50% off list price for all the guitars (placed out, unless stated nett)

Jack's screw can easily replace... doesn't affect as long as the thing doesn't fall out.

 

[ThisIsTheEnd]

Thing is, i think he dropped the guit, then the wood chipped off, so now if i try to put a screw in, its damn loose. T.T

 

[naviros]

My vote is still amp, cos you need a good amp to project voice. Plus with your limited budget, amp is the best way to greatly improve the sound. Getting a better guitar won't make your sound improve as significantly. Do browse around the review section for something suitable.

 

[ThisIsTheEnd]

So Roland Cube 20x it should be? Since i read about it being alot better than the line 6 spider.

 

[naviros]

got 20x? hmmm... i thought its 15 and 30... lol... how much is your budget again?

 

[ThisIsTheEnd]

300+? or would you recommend pickups+15x

 

[shioks76]

ill say get the amp.

The epiphone isn't that much of an upgrade, but the amp is prob a lot better investment

 

[naviros]

That you decide lorz. Depends on your needs. Or forget the pick-ups, save up the money for future use.

 

[ThisIsTheEnd]

Ok thanks but what to do about the chipped wood problem? Can send for repair, because other than that its good. Kind of embarrassing to gig with a guitar with one screw dont you think? haha

 

[theunknown]

i say collect more money. wait for next swee lee sale.

 

[naviros]

Repairs will cost a bit lorz... So be prepared?

Embarassing is when the sound don't come out good because of the damage, but hell like people down below can see your woodchip from far...
