Great Budget Guitar

My first "serious" electric guitar, after a Wesley Flying V and a Jaxville Jackson copy. It's survived many years of abuse, and has been resurrected with a layer of purple car paint ('cus why not), Iron Gear pickups and Wilkinson hardware. This is by no means a quality instrument, but it's a great beginner guitar and I refuse to pass it on, so it still gets used heavily even in professional shows.

Bargain for the price

Not the most comfortable guitar I own, but definitely sounds incredible. Close to any gibson I've heard, medium-high output pickups, put this thing through a cranked Marshall and any purists in the audience will cream themselves. I bought it second-hand with killswitch installed, it's a great guitar and holds tuning brilliantly.

30 years and still going strong

Bought this beauty second-hand. Needed a bit of work to get the controls functioning properly, but armed with a period-correct Floyd Rose and Seymour Duncan pickups, complete with a coil-split, this is any 80's rocker's wet dream. Neck is slightly flatter than an Ibanez Wizard III, very comfortable for shred, absolutely love it.

My perfect bass.

Every bass gig I play, I play on this one. My Washburn is my back-up but I never need it. Holds tuning beautifully, stupidly versatile and the active EQ preamp and pickup selector really allows a range of tones and styles, and the neck is extremely comfortable.

There's better

For the price, rocksolid. Treated me fine for years, and still used as my back-up bass. Decent quality, sounds great and just does the job. Not the most versatile, but always works fine for me.

Great bit of kit

My primary guitar, mostly because of it's versatility. Rather than the standard 5-way automatic coilsplit, this guitar uses a coil-split pot, allowing you to switch between a HSH configuration, or standard SSS. Perfect for extended versatility where changing guitars may not be an option.
