Cheap is in the eye of the beholder. I love my 2101, and you can get one of those for $200 nowadays. If someone's happy playing a CST through a POD, I say rock the fuck on. Hell, PODs are more expensive than my preamp.

I felt it was my duty to speak up. I know people like to egg guys on because they want to see a cool picstory, but that's a lot of money and someone had to say it.

Best of luck Steve
Oh sorry Nick, I forgot about how you know more than everyone else on this forum about everything related to guitar. My humble apologies... disregard my opinions and get back to your oh-so-busy life of internet surfing.

Easy dude, that was uncalled for, and not the first time you've been antagonistic anytime someone's had a different opinion than you. If you want to be an asshole, I'll show you the door.

Let's get this thread back on topic.

I didn't say that Eric. I'm not going to be baited into an argument here. I suggest you read what I said more carefully before jumping to conclusions, however.

I wouldn't spend more than 1500 AUD on a production guitar - by then it's getting to the stage that you may as well go custom. Sure, RG7CST is the dream, get a custom with similar features and it'll cost you less and be generally better, I'm sure.

Get an Oni...

On the other hand as everyone said if it's what you want go for it, but remember to account for customs, which at 3000 is gonna be quite a bit extra.

Jetzt liegst du hier, ganz regungslos, in meiner hand und meinem schoß, du bist so kalt...

Really? I've never played a J-Custom so I didn't know it was actually better than some of them (or all, I'm not too sure if that's what you guys mean or not).
