What guitar should i buy if i wanna play heavy metal and classic rock?
Im not a beginner play i can play some guitar songs i know scales and stuff i play alot. only problem is i dont have guitar of my own i go to my friends house to play i play on his fender stratocaster. i hate it because of the pick ups i like seymour duncan pick ups. and i need to buy a amp and a guitar so idk what to do.
also i need to buy as cheap as possible.
Hello there,
I am not a fan of the starter packs, no matter what brand. Usually those contain the cheapest constructed guitars in the brand along with a small practice amp. The practice amps are crap. The speakers are lousy and will make you sound thin and tinny no matter what guitar you play through them. Also those speakers just won't cut it for metal and classic rock. Also I understand why you don't like Strats, you play metal. The single coil pickups on the Strat just do not sound good with metal distortion. They are not designed for that type of music.
If money is tight, give some serious thought to buying used. You can get a better quality guitar or amp for the money. More bang for you buck.
If you want a tremolo bridge, I would suggest an Ibanez RG series or a Jackson/Charvel. Both brands are commonly available used at decent prices. Both have a locking tremolo bridge that should keep you in tune if you do dive bombs. Both have good pickups that handle heavy distortion.
However, if you do not really need a tremolo bridge, do not get one. They are a sustain killer. BC Rich has several good looking guitars. But their low end guitars are too cheaply constructed for my taste. I consider those all show and no go. I like the Fender 72 Tele Deluxe Reissue. It has two wide range humbucking pickups that handle distortion quite well. That guitar is not the twang you normally associate with Teles. The problem is they are not cheap, even used. I would go with a Epiphone Les Paul Standard, or maybe a Studio. I would definitely stay away from the cheaper models. If you can find one cheap, then plan on dropping in a pair of Seymour Duncan pickups. If you have the bucks, I would go with the SD Blackouts. Those active pickups are hot.
Amps. Most newer players under estimate the importance of the amp and speakers. You only sound as good as your speakers. A great guitar played through a lousy amp or lousy speakers will sound lousy. Again, I think you should look for a used 1x12 combo amp. A combo amp is where the speakers and amplifier are in the same cabinet. 1x12 means there is one 12 inch speaker. Look for the best deal you can find on a Vox, Marshall, Peavey, Crate, Line 6 or Fender. All are slightly different in sound but any will handle your music. I have never seen a lousy speaker in a 1x12 by any of those brands. Also they all are commonly available used. I see them sell for about the same price as a new small practice amp. If I had to recommend one of those, I would look for a Line 6 Spider either the 30 watt or 75 watt. Fairly versatile amp. Seems to hold up all right. I have an older Spider III 2x12 that is still going strong.
If you are willing to put together a stack, I really recommend the B-52 head. The solid state model has about the best sounding tube simulation I know of. The good part is they are cheap. The B-52 is a straight forward head. Not a lot of gimmicks. No amp modeling. Has a clean channel and 2 gain channels. But what it does, it does great. The B-52 speaker cabs are not so cheap. You could watch for any decent cab, 2x12 or 4x12, then load it with some Eminence speakers. I run my B-52 through an old Marshall 1960 cab that I have loaded with 2 Eminence speakers and 2 Carvin British Series speakers (the old made in the US ones, not the new made in China crap ones). I really like the tone I get from that set up.
Here is a demo of the B-52, just in case you are not familar with it.
