I’m pretty sure ESP is better but is it right for me? I heard it’s more for HEAVY metal? I like metal but not heavy heavy.. I mostly play RHCP type of songs.. Would EC-1000 be fine for that or should I go with strat (not American)???

Just wondering…..is there a rule/law? I have a 1980 Fender stratocaster and it is 30 years old…when will it qualify to be called a “vintage”?

I’m looking to buy, and honestly I can’t tell what’s special about the Fender Stratocaster, and the Fender AMERICAN Stratocaster. Besides the American being 400 more… also:

A Gibson SG and a Gibson Vintage SG

Stratocaster and an older model of one (like a 50s reissue)

I know people think Gibson is better than Epiphone, but is the difference really big enough to spend 2,000 dollars on?

Mishima666 asked:

I’ve been playing flamenco guitar for about ten years now, and my musical interests have broadened somewhat. I’d like to get into electric guitar, and the Strat always seems to come highly recommended.

The problem is that there seem to be over a hundred models, and it’s hard to understand all the features.

Question: what features are most desirable, most important, etc.? I have no professional aspirations, but I would like a guitar that I’m not going to outgrow any time soon — you know, one with sufficient features and quality that I’m not going to be shopping for a new one five years from now. I’m not interested in spectacular looks, models named after famous people, collectors vintage models, etc.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

If you have any clue please let me now…..i didnt get a paper where it says if its a vintage or just a strato.
PS: on the guitar neck it says: Fender Stratocaster original Cotour body

J asked:


So here’s the deal. I have a decent Fender Stratocaster that I love. However, sitting away in storage for years, I have a Squier Stratocaster that my mother bought my shortly before she passed away. It is approx. 1998 year. It is of sentimental value, and I know squier is fender’s cheap beginners brand. But I just bought a vintage 1950s fender strat neck for it, and plan to put in a new loaded pickguard with lace sensor pickups in it. I know this may seem silly but this guitar is special to my just because it’s from my beloved mother. I want to make it all that it can be. So assuming I put in good pickups and with the 50′s genuine fender neck, what else do I need to upgrade to make it a true fender and not a squier? Thanks!!!
