Members algernon7 Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I bought an LTD MV300 for 300 bucks a few years back, it may suit your needs fairly well. I love that guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members grunge782 Posted August 8, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 Check with (TWEAKN1 )..He has a real nice Schecter S-1 ELITE for sale or trade..That is a sweet metal guitar with fixed bridge set neck and 24 frets.. That sounds good. I'll look into that. Anybody have any experience with these? http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Washburn-X30-Electric-Guitar?sku=514239 Kind of on the cheaper side but the features are pretty good.

Members grunge782 Posted August 8, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 Also am I right in thinking that the Schecter necks are thicker?? I'm used to Ibanez necks, and I heard that ESP/LTD necks are really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BoredGuitarist7 Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I have limited experience with Schecters - I only have a Schecter Studio Bass at this point, and it is top notch. However, the Schecter electric guitars I have played have all been very nice as well. I am used to a thin Talman neck, and, they were very nice. A bit wider, played more like a strat neck than anything else. I loved it, and the inlays were a great touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dissy Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 Ibanez does a fair amount of basswood guitars, though they generally don't sound as good (to my ears) as their mahogany ones. Question though-have you already purchased the MM, or have you just decided this is the pickup you need? It'd probably be easier to not rule out mahogany and look at a wider variety of guitars, than to look for a guitar to match the pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shenaniganizer Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I would suggest Jackson. I {censored}ing love Jacksons for metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tp4mybunghol Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I see you have a an engl e530! I use a jackson slsmg (which can probably be found for 400-500 used, more if you want a color other than black) with a super distortion (bridge)/breed (neck) through it and it is excellent for all kinds of metal tones through that engl. For you I would recommend the SLS3 which I believe is alder bodied (The slsmg is mahogany). These are, in my opinion, the best hard tail superstrats out there barring the usa hardtail soloists.

Members GRANKOR Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 Think you can spend that much and still have enough left over for your wardrobe? The difference being Immortal can actually play pretty {censored}ing well, the rhythm guitar is tight as {censored}, none of this sloppy old blues {censored}. I know you meant it as a derogatory comment but I'd wager Abbath is a better guitar player than you...

Members satannica Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I'm a plus 1 for Jackson. The SLS series are the best bar none hardtail strats for the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd probably be easier to not rule out mahogany and look at a wider variety of guitars, than to look for a guitar to match the pickup. I already bought one, and I got it for a really good price. I love the sound of the MM, I just thought using mahogany would be overkill for the low mids. I'm starting to think though that I shouldn't rule out mahogany.

They put on a show and don't take themselves seriously. I listen to music, not care about the appearance of an artist.

Members Electric Blues Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I have no problem with showmanship. It has always been in music, although there is music that is so strong by itself that it doesn't need theatrics... only to be played and enjoyed.

Members GRANKOR Posted August 8, 2009 Members Share Posted August 8, 2009 I like the same music you do as well... Old style blues is excellent music. I love extreme metal too, I just don't feel the need to put down another person's taste in music because I consider it 'less substantial' or whatever.
