This could be interesting so will throw it out there.

OK, trying to sell two guitars to fund one new one.

Now, if I manage to sell/get the $1,300

WHAT would you buy??????????

Now, bear in mind. I will still have a Gibson LP Standard, Music Man Axis hardtail.
I like to play anything from Rock to Metal to I guess prog. Rock? dunno, term I hear now adays.

Anyway, let fly with suggestions :)

PRS, Parker Fly or something custom made (if it were me)

monkeywalker · « **Reply #2 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:24:29 PM »

i'd go for the japanese tokai sg. they are really good for rock stuff, very very nice to play and really high quality.

i like how frustrated you are making sam with your not telling him what you are going for :lol: he'll be tearing his hair out with anticipation :roll:

Dakine · « **Reply #3 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:27:47 PM »

lol, yeah, poor poor Sam :twisted:

PRS, hmmm NO! I have a gibson and that took enough finding. Maybe OLD PRS but the newer ones are either sterile or cr@p, takes ALOT of time to find a GOOD one IMO.
Parker, hmmmm.
Custom, not enough money. Feline and I are gonna be buddies but not just quite yet.

Tokai. Nope. Prolly gonna be US as am here now and cost-value etc. But am kinda looking for a strat type thang. More like the Jackson neck width with the Axis speed/comfort.

I would get me this one. It's a bit more than 1300, though.

LOL Rat
ONE Gibson is enough for me till I make millionaire status.
I know they ARE part of history but it wears ya out looking for a "good" one, which should NOT be the case!

ESP M-II, urban cammo

Dakine · « **Reply #7 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:45:43 PM »

Cammo!
Darn T.O.
I am not quite up to your calibre of playing yet so would be abit more self concious playing a Cammo guitar! LOL
ESP is prolly better bet than that Gibbo though (sad to say).

I already have a 99.9% idea but want opinions (never can know EVERY guitar/jem out there) and also, perversely, wanna mess with Sambo :twisted:

Searcher · « **Reply #8 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:47:25 PM »

I'd go for a partscaster. Pick up all the bits and pieces on eBay and put it together yourself. You can get BKPs for it and really whatever options you want and still be under your budget.

Dakine · « **Reply #9 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:48:50 PM »

Darn TO, thats looks (have NO idea) like Scott Ian would LOVE it! :)

LOL Searcher.
That is to come. Nah want a finished one right now.
Also, Ebay FRANCE have blocked my account and will NOT say why AGGGHHH.
Oh well. Had TWO French emails and US will not reply to me.
I had 100% feedback and all that so NO idea whats up.
Merde bloody froggies! lol

dave_mc · « **Reply #12 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:54:32 PM »

I'd second the custom suggestion.

stu__r · « **Reply #13 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:54:59 PM »

Might be a lil out of price range but.... Somthing top quality like a Suhr, Briggs or Organic (standard would be within price.) or even a mcnaught.

Thats just my 2p.

Dakine · « **Reply #14 on:** March 31, 2006, 05:56:09 PM »

Dave, it WILL happen. But abit down the road, not right now. Feline and I have talked and more money is needed. Also, I just wanna compliment what I have with summit now, whilst stateside.
Appreciate custom is BEST option, but it's "in the works for later".
