Question I am angry, and require assistance!

Damm it a hard disicion to pick out a new 6 string electric guitar!Gibson,Fender,Ibanez,ESP,Schecter?These are the brands im down too!Then again buy online,new,used,from a dealer,setup or not,taxes or not!This might of already been on here.But id like to spent my money wisely!Have we all been though this!?Les Pauls and Fender FSR all in black is my top picks!After this i have to pic out a amp!A man i know says the new fender dec15 will work!What A damm HEADACHE I have over all of this!HELP!!! DONNIE

Esteemed colleagues and friends,

I am having a trifle of a time deciding which new six string electric guitar to purchase. I have looked at such brands as Gibson, Fender, Ibanez, ESP and Schecter, for these are the brands that I prefer. I am simply overwhelmed by the options available to me! I can buy online new, or purchase from a dealer. I can also do these same things with a used instrument, and even then I am not sure if I'd care to include a setup, let alone if I would do well to avoid higher tax rates. This may have been inquired about before, however I am posting again because I would like to make an informed decision. Additionally, guitars by Fender and LSR are makes that I am very much considering.

Once I have made my purchase, I will also require an amplifier. A gentleman whom I am acquainted with has recommended the new Fender DEC15. All of this decision making has left me quite confused, and I beseech you all to lend me any advice you may have to aid me in making the proper decision.

Keep strumming!

- Donnie

Start by making a list of what you NEED out of a new guitar... scale length, number of frets, pickup config, desired tone, trem vs. hardtail, etc.

that will narrow down the choices considerably.

...this is like, the most broad topic ever. Do some research on guitars and then see where you can get it cheapest.


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.

What Ken said. Also, when using a long list of comma-separated items, it's WAY easier to read if you put a space after each comma, like this,instead of,you know,almost,sort of,maybe a little like,well,this.

Personally, i'm a fan of these... and these, but there are a LOT of guitars out there, so it helps to narrow things down a bit.

If you're looking at black Les Paul type guitars, Ibanez has a few that might fit the bill as well:

ADC120

SZ320

ART100

My suggestions.. If you like Les paul / PRS style.. Ibanez SZ520 no question... and if you like RG/dinky style, Ibanez RGT42DXFM no question =]
