....I know there are a few of you that play guitar here. Im currently looking for "The One". Please tell me what type of guitar your using(as well as others you may own or played).
Let me know the pros,cons,and so forth.
I have:
BC Rich Warlock: (Just sold it actually)Late 80s model,USA made, bolt on neck, thin neck good for metal bad for acoustic playing,Floyd Rose tremelo I hate. Made of Alder.Dimarzio pickups. Great metal sound through a Crate 1/2 stack,small fretboard. I like this guitar, but hate the Floyd Rose and want neck thru construction.Heavy crunch sounding.Great for speed metal.
89 Gibson Explorer:Lovely, stop tail piece,mahogany, sustains forever(like Spinal Tap, you can go get a bite and come back and its still sustaining),not sure what pickups are in it,more midrange but can get more bass out of it with EQ.Need to change the tuners to Sperzel tuners.Good for metal(although u have to work harder or change the pickups to get Pantera type sounds out of it),classic rock, ska,punk u name it.
Im interested if anyone out there owns a Carvin, as Ive heard good things about them.Also thinking of a BC Rich Mockingbird.
Thanks
