Whats your deal man? ← so dont read it. theres plenty of other stipider threads on the board. why do i ask so many question? lets see cause theres' probabbly someone who has played the 3 guitars im considering. im an idiot for asking which is the best before i spend $500. i dont understand u people at all, the phish message board is far more fun.

jay5 Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Seriously man, its not that you ask a million freakin questions, its that you ask a handfull of the same questions over and over and over. Couple that with the fact that you have obviously done zero research on anything and dont seem to have any real idea what you are trying to do and it should be pretty clear why people are geting a bit annoyed.

jay5 Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Your question in the original post is "any advice". That is so vague. You are still not making much sense. What is your reason for changing components? Just for somthing to do? You obviously havent played any of these guitars, so why scrap the pickups and bridge? You dont even know what they sound like. If you have done so much research, you should have some idea of the quality of the 3 guitars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nollock Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Spending $500+ on a guitar just so you can replace the pickups and bridge seems daft imo. It's a very expensive "project" considering how little you would learn from it. Imo you'de be better of buying a chunk of wood and trying to make a guitar body, see how it goes and if you're happy grab a neck and the rest of the bits later on. Or buy a realy cheap / 2nd hand guitar and mess about with that. If you want somthing to do so you can learn then look at how best to get the most learning out of what money you have. If you want a nice guitar, buy a nice guitar. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoSo_Spencer Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 ..... Never played the ibanez but i have played both the prs's - many of them infact as there is a store nearby that sells heaps of them. Prs soapbars are **** imo - they just dont feel good to me, nor look good. prs Santana's i find were actually built great - well the ones i saw, they looked good to me, i would certainlly have one, and they feel good to play..... although i never played these through an amp it wouldnt really matter considering you want to change the pups anyways..... id have a good look around in your area to see who supplies prs's then go play one of them and compare it to the ibanez..... if your looking for good pup's - Jon Moore - hes a canadian selling hand-wound pups to your specs that sound great for cheap prices.... contact him at rhonjon@sympatico.ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
