Help Again but with guitars (rock, goth, classic, quote)

Live To Die · 09-06-2005, 12:31 AM

Ok i am debating this over in my head. Ok so i am gonna get a new guitar but here are the options i have decided on. Ok someware in here i said i was getting a c1 hellraiser but i can't afford it yet. I was thinking another option would be to buy an epipone goth explorer (or flying-v) (both have mahogany bodies and necks with ebony fingerboard with a tight XII inlay on the twelph). And then putting some emg (81/85) pickups in when i can afford them. Then i would put the explorers pickups in my old (the one i have now) guitar and then when i gan even more money i would put 2 emg 89s and an EMG sa(i think) in the middle. Ok and in the end the prices would be the same. The schecter cousts 650, the epiphones coust 450 and i can buy the pickups for 200 (and i can replce the crap in my guitar).

got some good ideas there man , but seriously, the flying v's are a complete waste of time, terrible,awful guitars to play

may i suggest the les paul Gothic?
I know for a fact that a coupler of EMG thrown into the works would sound ****ing awesome and, as its an Epi, it'll be better on the budget and is a very nice guitar

What abought the explorers do they sound good. Ya i was also looking at the sg and lp gothic. I don't really like lps or sgs because there heavy. But ya i will check them out. I would go gibson but i don't have tons of money. And gibsons are over priced. Although i really like schecters and it has a mahagony bodey with the emg pickups in it already and is 200 $ more. So basicly in the end i payed the same price.

You cant sit down and play them without playing it like a classical guitar or something. I don't have a Gibson or Epi. I just have an old schecter
