New guitar/amp

Postby Darkfoxx » Thu Jan 14, 2010 6:54 pm

'Cause I know you all care...

I've been looking to get a new guitar for some time now to replace my .

I had a bunch of models in mind so I went to Guitar Center today and tested countless guitars for about 3 hours. I finally settled for the Epiphone G-400 SG with a worn cherry finish. I loved the special edition 1966 G-400 SG they had, but it had a glossy finish and it just seemed like the neck was too "sticky" so to speak...i.e. hard to slide with.

I also got a Vox VT30 amp (Paypay's amp). It seems like they updated it a bit from what I remember. Gonna have to talk with ya to see if there's anything new.

I traded in my old guitar and got $40 for it!. I got it appraised a while ago and I was told it was only worth about $20-25 tops. Then on top of that, I got %15 off for the "trade in trade up" special. Got the new guitar, amp, and cable for about $500. A steal if you ask me...

Couldn't be more happy with what I got.

PICS!







So sexy. :D

Is that a hothead distortion pedal? My lead guitarist uses it.
Also a good distortion is the Grunge pedal.
