Hey everyone! So i went to GC today and i picked up this guitar http://www.guitarcenter.com/Dean-Razorback...870-i1328231.gc and i felt at home with it! The sound from the neck pickup was face melting, and the bridge pick up was so aggressive. I even got a comment on my playing from someone there! (lol it means a lot to some one who has only been playing about a year). So i was wondering, do you guys think i should buy this guitar? or wait and save my money. Oh and also keep in mind that i have a 5 week summer program at Berklee soon, so i was thinking it would help me then but i duno.
Thanks everyone! Feel free to suggest other guitars too. -------------------- QUOTE (OrganisedConfusion @ Jun 10 2008, 01:38 PM)  Crysis kicked arse.

I agree with skennington, something more universal and playable would be maybe better like maybe an Ibanez or Epi. This guitar looks cool, but it is little unpractical for practice and carrying.

That Ibanez RGR320EX seems like the way to go imo.

THat 7 string is cool, but since this is gonna be your school practice guitar I still recommend 6 string with a decent sound and decent quality hardware to it. Edge III is decent, those pickups are decent, and the whole guitar is generally very decent looking. Since you gonna practice a lot on it, I suggest the RGR320EX.

Okay so update guys. i went to guitar stores to today and i found this, http://www.guitarcenter.com/Dean-Dime-O-Fl...370-i1150879.gc But bare with me! haha I found it at 499.99!! no flaws. The only reason its so cheap is that the specific guitar center I went to thats their last one/last shipment, so they are trying to sell it. The paint job is a bit eh, but i could get it painted black possibly by a friend who does that kinda stuff for free! Its extremely comfortable to sit with as well believe it or not. So tell me what you guys think! ^^ And again, thanks so much every one! -------------------- QUOTE (OrganisedConfusion @ Jun 10 2008, 01:38 PM) Crysis kicked arse.

Thats a good price man and it is your decision, personally I think you might grow tired of the shape. Looks cool and all but but you got to think about practical purpose at this point. Your going to be carrying your guitar quite a bit and shapes like that can get damaged easily.
Heres my recomendation...... (I want one of these). Read into it. It's got a pickup in the neck similar to a Piezo also with stereo output. You can play acoustic on it! They call it a NanoMag. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/ENU2MEGH |

So Ive decided on the guitar that Ivan recommended, The Ibanez RGR320EX http://www.guitarcenter.com/Ibanez-RGR320E...359-i1172556.gc Im gonna try to out a couple more time before i decide but yeah. So the problem is, is that my parents think that in a couple of months i will out grow this guitar(in terms of skill). I find this hard to believe cause it seems like a great guitar, that if anything i would change the pick ups maybe but thats it. How do you guys think i can convince them it will be a lasting guitar, or Do you guys think it even is a lasting guitar? Thanks!! -------------------- QUOTE (OrganisedConfusion @ Jun 10 2008, 01:38 PM) Crysis kicked arse.
