[QUOTE=fenwick;15478285]I've got a cheapo yamaha EG 112c strat replica. It gets the job done, though, I'm still a beginner. Not my picture. [img]http://www.daddys.com/images/usedgear/YAM0508_1.jpg[/img] My dream guitar would be a black or white Les Paul. Or a Roland G-707.

[QUOTE=Nevermind me;15311373]Teles are sooo nice compared to strats. The strat is so overused.[/QUOTE] This. I'm in love with Teles [i]and[/i] the sound they produce. Not much of a Strat fan though.

[/QUOTE] Pretteh... I'm planning on buying a Les Paul to when I got the money, but I don't know which kind of Les Paul i should buy.
Guys, I plan on getting a mexican Strat soon, which ones are the best base to get that Gilmourish tone? I was thinking about either a Standard or a Classic 70's, maple fingerboard.
I really don't think you can choose a guitar in that pricerange for a gilmourish tone, you'd have to buy amps, effects and probably new pickups to get that good gilmour sound.
[QUOTE=AxisofIdiocy;15504377]trust me the valvetronix is gonna start disappointing you a about a year into buying it (probably less). if you play heavy metal and shit i guess its a good choice for the time being. However, if you like a little more "dialed back" style, go immediately for the fender champion 600. [img]http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/regular/2/6/1/472261.jpg[/img] ([url]http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Fender-Champion-600-5-Watt-1x6-Combo-Amp?sku=485054&src=3WFRWXX&ZYXSEM=0&CAWELAID=44097308[/url]) there's only one control (a volume knob). If you keep it at 1-2, it'll give a nice clean, but if you start cranking the knob you'll get a sweet blues burn. It's a similar price point to the valvetronix; 250 for the fender as opposed to the 200 (i think) for the vox. If anyone here wants to start off with blues/rock guitar and wants a kick ass amp its this one.[/QUOTE] One control? That sounds stupid, really. I) want to be able to play all sorts of music.
[QUOTE=PinkRhino;15539080]I really don't think you can choose a guitar in that pricerange for a gilmourish tone, you'd have to buy amps, effects and probably new pickups to get that good gilmour sound.[/QUOTE] I want it just as a base, plan on adding new pickups etc. [QUOTE=mynames2long;15539943]One control? That sounds stupid, really. I) want to be able to play all sorts of music.[/QUOTE] The volume knob is pretty much also a gain knob. Besides, when using valves you usually use some pedals too.

[QUOTE=absinthe;15551584]Flight of the Conchords.[/QUOTE] Hooray, you just earned ten internet points! Picking up my Squier Jazz Bass today, I'll post later once I've had a play on it.

[QUOTE=Mesothere;15555967]Wow man that really sucks, how much did it cost?[/QUOTE] About $330, not much, but it's a pain. I'm going to call them up tomorrow and see what I can do about it.

[img]http://guitarnoize.com/images/blog/jackson_demmelition.jpg[/img] I think I might get this guitar by the end of '09. Any thoughts?
Watch out before you sting yourself with it. And what kind of genre do you play?
That's a bit obvious :x
Yeah, I know. It's definitely Jazz.
Bonk my mate. Metallica, Plays I. [editline]06:33PM[/editline] Bonk my mate. Metallica, Plays I. [editline]06:34PM[/editline] Bonk!
It'll definitely work out, but I'd choose for an Explorer
[QUOTE=Velter;15560056]It'll definitely work out, but I'd choose for an Explorer[/QUOTE] Boring and overused, imo
[QUOTE=Velter;15560056]It'll definitely work out, but I'd choose for an Explorer[/QUOTE] Gibson explorers really aren't that nice to play. Other explorers though are awesome. The Gibson is still awesome, just not first choice if you're looking for ease of use.
