Reccomend me a H/S/S or H/S guitar for fusion!

[Fl00]

I've needed a guitar that's more of a 'shredder' for a while now. I don't have any true requirements, other than that it has to be a H/S/S or H/S guitar, maple neck that's flat and wide and brighter-sounding (bodywoods don't matter as long as this guitar isn't mellow like a Gibson).

 

Here's a list of some things that are priorities, but aren't necessarily needed:

 

- trem based (I've never used a trem, so it might be nice--but it's not needed)

 

- maple fretboard only due to the fact that I like the way it looks, but I don't necessarily care

 

- figured top due to the fact that I've had an obsession with looking at 3-dimensional things since a child

 

I've had my eye on such guitars as a Jackson SL1/2H and PC1, and also the G&L Invader.

 

Gooooooo!

if you dont NEED a fender scale, check out the Jackson Fusion. Its a bolt on super shredder with a 24.75" scale. Sweet guitars and can be hand relatively inexpensively. Very cool sound.

G&L Legacy, or Invader:love:

Thanks guys. Keep them coming. Alchemist: shut up about you and your G&L's. I only want them more . Unfortunately, the only G&L's we have here in Winnipeg are the stupid Trubute models.

I forgot to mention a couple things: I don't want to buy from eBay, and I want to keep the price limit under $2200 taxes included, as I'm a student. Both are guitars that are what I'm looking for, though.

For $2200, you could have one of these fine beauties:
Caparison Apple Horn (Mattias Eklundh Signature model)

I think I'll be getting one VERY soon.


or, perhaps a Jackson DK2M Snow White



I want one of these too. . .

If you want G&L, contact Lauzon music in Ottawa. They are top notch, the owners are awesome guys, and great musicians at that. I'm sure they can get you a good price and get one out to you. For instance my G&L sells for $1700 USD online, in Canada with our fantastic pricing, its supposed to sell for $2000+ CAN, I got it from them for $1700 CAN out the door (15% ontario taxes and all)

I saw a DK2M at L&M in transparent blue. It played quite well, and didn't have much trouble with the licensed Floyd. If it weren't for the lack of funds and the fact that I was a bit iffy on it, I would've bought it.

As for the G&L, I'm always iffy of buying stuff online. I was fine with buying my Mark IV, but a guitar is something different. I'll keep them in mind.

Bump for the morning crew.

Bumping...

If you can afford them, Suhr's are bloody nice


It may seem a tad passe but PRS's are always quite nice for fusiony stuff. A tutor of mine called Paul Bielatowicz has a really nice Custom 24 that sounds great for that sort of stuff

Honestly, I'd love one but there is NO way I'd be able to pick one up for less than $2000 CDN, used or new.

Yes you can.
