Hello to everyone and advice needed :)

You know, since the Dirty Fingers is my long term favorite (hell, it's pictured in my forum avatar right there) I was very surprised when it was embraced by the new punk / nu-rock scene like it has been. My guitar is almost as loud and heavy as my damned hair, and both are strong indicators of my 80's metal upbringing.

That being said, I think I could see how the dirty fingers would work fairly well in a epi for the grind and growl of punk chords, but I think you should also consider the VHII and the Nailbomb. I think VHII could have some really cool hard-driven yet vintage character that would be very cool for the accentuated midrange of punk rock.

I just don't know how a VHII would do in a mahogany les paul or SG body.

Yeah it turns out what i heard about gibsons gradings is complete bs :P Dont get me wrong i love the sg and i do play other stuff other then pop punk that the sg is more suited for so its goin no where :P No im not the chris182 that posts on sigames just the only thing i could think of when i signed up :) I think ill talk a little more with the guitar guy down at my local before i get em in. I think im gonna go for the AHII as its what caught my eye originally and now its gettin reccomended alittle.
