how loud do you need to get?
and i can tell you right now that if you want a big loud amp that will sound good, and all you got is about $400, you'll be buying used gear.
you can pick up a 60w tube crate blue voodoo 2x12 combo or if you're lucky,maybe a 60w tube 5150 2x12 combo, both of those would get a good metal tone and produce quite a bit of volume, and i'm sure you could find either on ebay at a reasonable price.
if you want a bigger amp, like a half stack, in that price range.... you'll probably end up with a solid state setup. and in that case, i'd suggest going with a randall.

I am pretty sure they use EMG's in the LP's, well, from the photos in magazines i have seen it is EMG's they are using. but live last winter they used PRS 24's and Gibson LP's with EMG and Marshall JCM 800 full stacks, I couldnt get close enough to see if there were any pedals in front or to see about a rack.
