help picking a guitar and amp?
alright so iv been playing on an ibanez gio and a peavey blazer 158 15w crappy practice amp for a year now, and iv gotten quite good, so i was thinking and entire gear upgrade
the amp i seem to have chosen already, the Line 6 Spider III 75W combo amp, along with an FBV Express footswitch and a Dunlop Crybaby From Hell wah pedal
now im having trouble picking the guitar - i have a choice of the ESP LTD ec-500, since tremolo's are headaches and the spider III has a built-in tremolo effect
or the B.C. Rich WMD Warbeast, who has an OFR and rockfield pups for just 50 bucks more, but imo the color is too sombre - i would prefer a white ec-500
so in the longrun, will not having a tremolo be a regret, or if you have any other guitars in mind please name them
thank you!
p.s i have taken a bnreak from superstrat shapes, i want weird shapes or lp shapes only
well fenders arent generally suited to metal =)
B.C. Rich makes a pretty good import guitar (much more reasonably priced than an ESP/LTD) and Jackson imports are very good as well. You can get a Jackson V or a Kelly model starting at around $500 and it will sound great. And you might want to check on the Line6 amp because I believe that it has a built in Wha feature and you can use it with the floorboard (FYI). Good luck and keep on playing!
