Can someone identify this guitar for me please?

The one that Jerry Cantrell is playing. I know he plays the G&L Rampage quite a bit but the headstock and pickup configuration does not look like it.

Almost looks like a pointy Yamaha, anyone have any clue?

Closeups of the neck during the solo (no inlays) makes it look more like an ESP to me.

What would be a good cheap alternative to a guitar that looks like that? Been craving something similar for a while now

What's cheap? You can get the real deal for $599.

M-II. There's one in black on GC's used site. You could probably find a cheap LTD version. The current models all have dual HBs though.

Since we now know that Jerry Cantrell is playing an ESP in that video, here is the Yamaha you were probably thinking of.

I don't have an online photo of mine, but, I've owned an Yamaha RGX-211 like this one for several years:
