fender and gibson. possibly peavy also


No..... just no. Buying a really really nice guitar kinda implies that you can play it too. Kid at my school sucks at guitar, but thinks it gives him credit that he has a $3000 SG.

Buy a shit guitar, learn to play, really appreciate good guitars once you can understand what makes em good.

Again, get an Epiphone. Them be nice.

Or an Ibanez. They are modestly priced and play like they are worth alot more.


BustaNinja, you are my hero. Every time I come to this thread, you say what I am thinking haha. TheNerfLoki, your post was very poor quality in grammar and what you said. Fender, Gibson and Peavey are very, very broad spectrums of guitars. Not all Gibsons and stuff are good, but none of them are cheap(with the exception of a few complete pieces of garbage from Peavey). He asked about a cheap, starter guitar. You aren't going to find a Gibson for $300 with an amp. No way. Another, I hate it too when I see little doucheboxes with expensive guitars and think that makes them good. I am a decent guitarist, and I play cheap guitars(my most expensive was $300). My good friend has a piece of crap dean (also about $300), and he is a master shredder. I know another kid with Two (yes, two) Ibanez JEMs. He sucks balls. He is marginally better than me in some ways, but only because he does nothing but play guitar. Nerfer9, please, don't take in anything in from TheNerfLoki.

$300? you big spender. My Paul was 200 in a kit, plus the stain and whatnot.

Anyway, you can get alot of great guitars for cheap, and Thank you again slowguitarman. Glad I can read your mind when it comes to guitars. I guess great minds think alike?

Anyway, time to practice. I have an audition on tuesday, where I am playing History of Tenacious D and the National Anthem Jimi Hendrix style, crazy effects and all.

I hope you were being sarcastic about $300 making me a big spender for guitars haha, but good luck with your audition.

Cool. I can't decide on my next guitar. I think I might get an Ibanez xiphos. I want a crazy looking guitar, for a change.

Nerfer9: Have you decided yet on a guitar?

Just kidding. Send me a link to the xiphos. It sounds cool, but I wanna see it.
