What guitar do I get?

[Whaleboy]

I have £500 to spend on a new guitar, at the moment, I have a Westfield accoustic (steel) and a lame lil Marshall Rocket special edition lead. I got a reasonable amp so dont need to worry about that, but I want a decent electric.

I play rhythm, but in a lead-like style, using a lot of riffs, and I want a relatively clean sound that will work with a slide.

HELP ME PEOPLE!!!!

Air. Saves lots $$

Nah, get one with strings. I heard those are best and produce the bestest sound.

Urgh, tough queston to answer. Guitars are such a personal thing. It's like asking which girl should I go out with. Totally depends on your own style, also what you like the look of.

I got an Epiphone Les-Paul custom Flametop a few years ago. That was about £500 retail. Got it with case, strap, strings and a Marshall pedal for £500 in the end. I play rock though. (download songs from http://www.sonicundermind.co.uk )

You've got to go to a guitar shop and play some really.

How many guiar players does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

11. One to screw it in and ten others to stand around and whinge they could have done the same with that equipment.

How many bass players does it take to change a lightbulb?

One, and a guitarist to show him how to do it.

How many Iraqis does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

There is no lightbulb, and if there ever was one it has committed suicide at the gates of Baghdad.

Yes, I'm bored.

How many sopranos does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Two. One to change the bulb, and another to pull the chair out from under her.

[Ecthy]

why would she do that?

[MikeH]

Because Tony's been sleeping around again?

I think Boris got enough.

1 Turkish lira for identifying the pun.

You don't know much about divas, I suppose.

I was good enough to get enough.

Pay up.

[Ecthy]

I was quite proud of that pun.

Now what about those divas?
