Our buddy Miles has major G.A.S. over the Wampler Tumnus overdrive pedal. Could it be the best Klon-style OD pedal for the price? Check this pedal out!

What guitar should I get?

Heyo. Hope everyone had a good holiday. So, I was given $400 in guitar center gift certificates and now have to figure out what to get! I'm thinking about another guitar - currently I just have a custom telecaster I built for myself (Modeled after the 52 tele, with emg pickups and some other cool stuff). I probably need to go to the store and try some guitars out, but there are a few I'm already thinking about. I may add some $ to the gift to get something decent.

I saw that there is a Gibson Les Paul Studio that is only like $799 that got good reviews. I also have my eye on those PRS SE guitars. There is also the possibility of an SG, Ibanez, Fender, etc... I'd like something that could compliment the Telecaster. I'm into Rock of all variety and other various types of music. Thanks for any ideas!

I have been into coheed and cambria and also Killswitch lately. I also like a lot of other rock. Maybe I need a les paul AND a shred guitar!

try something with EMGs (i believe coheed and cambria use 85 and 81). epiphone has their new prophesy line out (les pauls, sgs and new strange looking explorers) with 24 frets, ebony fretboard, figured maple tops and your choice of emg 81 and 85 sets (black) or gibson dirty fingers (red). schecter has alot of good models (check out the c-1 hellraiser and classic). also try ibanez's ict700 and vbt700 (they both have dimarzio d-activators, which sound really good).

Ha! I have enough trouble commanding one guitar neck!! I wonder if anyone actually plays that thing. You'd have to workout a lot to be able to hold that thing up long enough to play a song on it :)
