Hey,
I'm looking for THE new guitar, one I keep all my life :-) (that doens't mean it has to be a 2500$ Custom Shop Gibson/PRS)
Here are the requirements:
Price: max 1000$/€ ...
Shape: PRS or Les Paul style, no strat (too prissy) and no metal axe (I've got already a mockingbird "Vampirella", but it's just good for being easy on the eyes)
Color: Black Cherry (like the LTD EC1000) or another red-to-black burst
Config: 24 frets would be nice, a nice binding and inlays, a short scale would maybe comply with my demands
Tremolo:NO Floyd Rose, I want a basic tremolo or none ...
PUs: 2 Humbucker or eventually 2 Hum & 1 SingleCoil ... Seymour Duncan or EMG ... don't know
MUSIC: 60% Hardrock (the Hardrock lessons by Gabriel are exactly to my taste), 30% Blues Rock, 10% Metal ... and I like for example JerryC's CanonRock and the like ...
I found some interesting guitars myself ... the ESP LTD Deluxe EC-1000 Black Cherry is awesome, someone told me I should replace the 81er EMG if i buy it ...
And I like the Zerberus Morpheus II ... it looks great but I have no possibility to play it at the moment :-( and it's expensive (about 1300€) ...
Do you have an idea which guitar I should test as well? Thanks for your help :-)
