I've been thinking.

And I'm not so sure I want the RR3. I think if I'm going to get a Jackson RR in honor of Randy Rhoads, I'm gonna get the real deal..

Buut, I can't afford this.
So I'm looking at some Ibanez's.
I love these two but I hear lesser priced guitar has a pretty faulty tremelo.

The Jackson Warrior was always my favorite Jackson guitar. But that middle Ibanez is sexy.

Yes I know.. but the tremelo apparently doesn't screw in or anything you just put it in. Which would bother me.

I love Randy Rhoads and his guitar as well!

But don't worry if you can't afford it! I like the other two as well, and I'm sure Randy would appreciate your effort to remain his honor...

Buy a Fender American Strat. End of.

Or the hammer and sickle guitar, but they're so rare and hard to find, you might as well go Fender.

I don't want a Fender American Strat, not exactly my style. Although I do own a squier. I want an Ibanez(or pretender brand if your gh2master) because of the fast low action neck.. And because it looks badass.

Out of those, get the Quilted Maple Ibanez. It's the cheapest. Simple as that. Unless your parents (or you) are rich.

I was leaning towards it anyways. I'l just have to get over the whole tremelo not locking in place bit and that it's hard to tune down.

Ibanez is a pretend brand Saltines, I know you dislike me for my "politics" but you don't need to quote me from weeks ago... You have Gibson and Fender (not counting Mexican Fender's, and Vintage FTW) and there are 4 guitars. Strat, LP, SG, Tele. End of list. The rest are weird shaped guitars or guitar brands which fail. Squiers aren't as bad as people make out, and there are a few nice Ibanez's, but Fender or Gibson are the best.

Few weeks ago you were a guitar n00b and know your omniscient. You really have no idea. Ibanez is one of the major leading guitar companies out there, with Fender and Gibson. Same with Dean, Gretsch, Jackson, and a few others. Fender and Gibson are definatly two of the best out there but to disregard other brands because of their shape is just stupid, ignorant is probably a better word here. Ibanez is one of the best brands out there. Especially if your into metal. But, hell.. I'm not the only one that knows this.

Take Steve Vai, brilliant guitarist. Uses Ibanez. But, He must only like pretender brands and have no real skill.
Same with Joe Satriani, and Paul Gilbert.

I play now, and rely mostly on my mate who's bro works in a music shop. I've heard him sit with the guitars, and there's just this undescribable depth that Gibson and Fender pull off... I can't describe it, but its beautiful and no other brand has this.

It's all a matter of taste and how you like your guitar to sound. You may like only Fender and Gibson because of their sound(and probably haven't tried a whole lot else)but that doesn't automatically make every other brand a ****ty pretender brand. Every company has the ability to release a good solid guitar. My dad got a First Act guitar for 25 bucks at a yard sale and quite honestly, it ain't half bad.

The things I've heard.. I stand that the Rickenbacker 4003 is the best bass I've ever heard.

PRS are nice, an expensive Gretsch... incredible. I've heard the main brands, but again, none of them have that Fender or Gibson feel and sound... Though the PRS LP Copy is a nice un

Ibanez is a great top brand of guitars.

Not bad. I had an Ibanez bass guitar, but I sold it because I lost interesting in playing altogether. Now I just invest my money in photography.

The camera I have is cheap but good. See that fan in the picture? It's actually moving at high speed.

Squier Fat Strat? Not a fan of the humbucker myself - although putting a humbucker on a strat is an idea which works, the one that comes with the Fat Strat I find just messes up the perfect strat formula. But hey - I love that single coil sound so much that I'm a little bias :P

It's a versatile guitar. Just wish my amp was better.
