MH-400 if you want a tremolo or F-400 is nice too. ec-400 if you like the les paul look. just my opinions, of course i'm more into metal than rock, but i love my esp, set neck is nice.

As an alternative to the studio the epi les paul custom black beauty with 3 pups, also as an alternative to the standard strat fender has one called the highway one that is a bit less expensive due to the finish but is still american made these are just my opinions of course You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Yeah, versatile is the word for the Standart Strat. Guitar for life... and all around. With good "extras" can be a killer axe, imho. Parker makes some good models also... Also, tbh, I was expecting more Ibanez presence... but the 1 big limit... Maybe can be wise wait a bit more and jump to the 1750 area... dunno... I'm in love with a couple of guitars priced like that... Just my two cents... Cheers! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

It is not a rule tho, Epi pickups are decent too. IMO some humbuckers from DImarzio could make the sound even better. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
