I'm going to the guitar store again monday with my cousin. He's going to get something on his bass checked out, and I was wondering.
Since i'm going to be checking out some more amps, what kinda guitar should I use?

So far I know there is a Les Paul in there. And possibly a jackson. I don't really remember well. I also wanna try out a fender. And what kinda amps should I try out if its there?
Gimme some damn advice people!

Be an individual, make your own!

â€¢ Find an electical appliance you can hold in your arms like a guitar
â€¢ Crush it in one of those car crusher thingys
â€¢ Bolt on a neck and all the stuff that makes a guitar
â€¢ A winner is you

Not only will you look like you're straight off of the Discovery Channel, but you can kick everyones ass while doing it!

I don't know anything about guitars, and I'm bored.

guitars that stay in tune are important so keep that in mind when picking one. usually anything under $700 is shit so try out a high end prestige RG Ibanez model.

Try Ibanez's incredibly thin necks.

NOT A FENDER

Go for a Gibson man, believe it's the best choice, if you've got money for the Les Paul you should buy it. If not..go for the flying V or SG. I've got an SG.

I'm not buying anything. I already got a cool guitar.(well not a great one but it's pretty good)

You CAN ask some of the people there to tune it for you so that you don't gotta do it yourself as well.

This, unless its a fixed bridge model, then you're fine. Honestly if you're gonna be checking out amps, take your own guitar unless you're gonna get a new guitar also. Try a bunch of tube amps, please...I've learned overtime that solid state amplifiers unless they're very high end aren't very good.
