IKR = I know rightWTF I got.
Dare I ask about the rest?
HSPRTSBMA= holy shit, paparaptors solo blew me away
Thanks Brian. I will miss it moreSounds great Eric. We are going to miss you in NY next week!
I'd probably grab one of these:$750 tops. However, I am afraid I might have GAS and I want to be careful (guitar acquisition syndrome)
Oh dear, tainted already and you've only just arrived. Beware the GAS!!!!!!that doesn't mean I'm not going shopping
Ok! When I started all this last March I wanted an affordable, (not cheap) guitar and amp, and now I am hooked. I bought an Ibanez S521 (~$400) because it is an easy to play guitar with the understanding when I bought it that it is probably more suited to a metal head, but then again, I just put it in "set it and forget it" mode (thanks Ron Popiel) with a sound that was well suited to what I wanted to do. Well, here I am having grown up a bit since then and am thinking I might trade it in for better "blues guitar". What is the collective opinion?
The positives with this guitar is that it is easy to play and small and light. I pick up an Epiphone or Gibson LP and it feels like I am holding a brick, and I borrowed a hollow body from a friend and it feels enormous. I am not sure what to do. Thanks
What does MIM mean?
Well, thanks to everyone and in particular Al Holloway. I turned down the guitar volume and adjusted the amp volume and it did make a difference. I am playing with it and it seems there are places I can go with the tone and sound that I didn't know were there. It ain't Lucille but better than before. Now, that doesn't mean I'm not going shopping))
I would be looking @ PRS, Ibanez, Schecter
If I (again I, not you) were looking now I would be looking @ PRS, Ibanez, Schecter, maybe a MIMM Strat or Tele, but that's me not you.
Good Luck
Couldn't agree more...I have one of each and play blues on each one of them
PRS has an import line called SE. I think they are now made in Indonesia. Really reasonably priced and well within your budget of $750. What better blues machine than this Santana?
The more I play and learn the more I am coming to appreciate hollow bodies (or Semi-hollows). I didn't think PRS had a hollow body in the SE line. If I were the OP, and knowing what I now know, I would probably go for your link rather than mine. Sorry and all due respect, Mr. Santana.Or this semi hollow?
