So if I like Ibanez RG guitars... does that mean I like the company?? I don't guess I've ever had to deal with customer service.

So far, my favorite guitar companies are Hamer and Epiphone. Both excellent cheaper guitars, quality stuff!

Yeah I don't believe in any company at all. It's a stupid and childish thing to do, because every company puts out half-assed guitars, even Gibson when they let shit slide through their quality control.

I like my NJ BCR, but I wouldn't buy a BCR instrument blindly without getting informed on the exact line, year of manufacture, materials, and features of the guitar. I like my Ibanez Universe, but I don't like most of the RG's I've tried. Etc.

Same goes for every single other brand. Heaps of shitty Ibanez, ESP, Epiphone, Jackson, etc. guitars out there.

I enjoy what Epiphone does. Especially with the Les Paul line for those of us on a bit of a budget.

yeah, it's kinda bland a topic, touching on mindless. NOW, to completely disregard that notion ( ), Ibanez more than floats my boat! Also, old skool BC Riches and Kramers. Also, gotta love Jackson... see what I mean, they all got their pros and cons, some just more than others, hence the first sentence.

Have you seen Ed Roman's BC Rich collection? It's overwhelmingly enormous. That's a thought... if ya ever get rich. But he does actually have quite a few that are affordale for the average person.

You got that right. My dad has an Epiphone Les Paul Model who looks & plays exactly like the Gibson Les Paul model he always wanted. And let me tell you that Epiphone is a damn good guitar.

On topic I think most companies are pretty good I guess but I dislike Gibson, yeah they're good and all but they are too expensive and there are guitars out there who equal the quality but cost considerably less (ibanez).

fav: Hamer, jackson, bc rich, washburn, esp, ibanez,...

Oh definitely. Gibson is one of the most overrated names on the market. It's their history, their age that draws people in.

Yeah overrated thats the word. I hate it when people talk about guitars like there's only fender or gibson and that the rest must be garbage.

I agree, Epiphone are fucking awesome guitars, thought the quality does vary from one to another, my 7LP is spectacular though, getting another for sure.

I have a Spectrum II. The one with two humbuckers. Some cock who had it before me put a really crap bridge pickup in it. And the tremolo is 80 years old, so it needs work. It's a great guitar though.

I have always liked Schecter very good quality I have a S-1 blackjack andthe neck is perfect for shreding not thick at all its very thin but not like some ibanez guitars. But now they are startingto put all that EMG pick up crap in their guitars.
