Re: GOOD ELECTRIC GUITARS? $$$$$ or $ (17 replies, posted in Electric)
My first guitar was a British strat from a not-very-well-known company called Chantry. It was 83 Quid(the british currency). When I moved I left my brit strat in the household goods and so I got an Epiphone DR acoustic, which was $130. I am a natural electric player and couldn't stand having an acoustic and nothing more. so i got an epiphone SG special, which I highly reccomend as a beginner guitar. Great shape, good quality and a name everyone rcognizes for only $150. After a long while, I saved up my pennies, sold my British strat, and bought myself an Epiphone Explorer. Most amazing guitar I've ever played. I reccommend one. If you have enough and will actually enjoy playing it, I would definitely get one. It is just as good as a Gibson, (Ive played both) and is half the price at $499. I bought mine at a local guitar center foronly$449.

Re: epiphone gothic explorer (2 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
thanks bootlegger, I decided not to buy it from amazon, I dont trust it too well with my most prized possesions. I am going to buy it from same day music.com because I can trust it alot better (and it has no tax and free shipping!)
by the way, got any pointers about the esp AX50? they look awesome and are inexpensive too.

Re: Is it to late to start playing guitar, after 30? please serious answers:-) (78 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
any time can be a good time to learn guitar. It is easy to pick up but takes quite a while to get as good as the hotshots Jimmy Page, Angus young, etc.

well as for the Epi. SG and Les Paul special models and possibly some others, anything over $175 is a ripoff, as they are normally $150 anyway.
