Definitely try before you buy.
Funny thing though is that the guitar I play the most since a year back or so is the one I ordered without even trying it, my Ibanez RG2570. I always pick the Ibanez, it's my "default" guitar since I own it. I had briefly tried another Ibanez prestige before though. I guess I was lucky

Zakk is right, if you have that budget, it would be wiser to cut it down for 100e, and go somewhere where there are lots of instruments. Try everything there, and make your choice then. It will be a lot better thing to do. Focus on Ibanez, ESP and Jackson, this is my suggestion.

If you are unsure what you would like to get then you must go to the store to try some instruments. Make a trip to a big city and play some guitar. It will give you an impression of what you like and feel is right for you. Its a big budget and you don't actually have a "dream guitar" you must have so a try before buy is a must.
Try some Ibanez or ESP's and see what you like. Maybe in the end you'll end up with strat or gibson ?

I third and fourth the notion of going to the store. you might be surprised what you end up with in the end. I went shopping for a guitar recently, tried everything on the wall, got discouraged and was walking out when I thought "what the h***" and picked up a 200 dollar (USD) ibanez that felt better than any of the other guitars I was playing, so I bought it right there on the spot.
With a budget like yours, you could get 2 decent guitars and some good pickups, each geared for a different role - one for leads, the other for rythem, or something else - that's what i'd do anyways.but then again, I'm not all that excited about buying a 2K dollar guitar - One's playing ability isn't dictated by the price paid on a guitar - might make you look and feel pro, but in the end, investment in practice is what gets the job done  good hunting! -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!
