Hootayah is just really nice
Guitars: Gibson or Fender depending on what type of sound you want
Amps: Marshal without question
Pedals: Boss Multi-Effects pedal.
And buy used equipment. You get twice the value as long as it isn't road abused.

gear

the amp should definitely be a Marshall!! no doubt about it.
the guitar could be almost anything depending on your preferences. i suggest getting a few useful pedals or maybe one (maybe even two) multi-fx pedals.

If you wanna play Metal Lead guitar ,you may like your guitar to have a Floyd Rose tremolo and 24 frets... Check out Jackson, ESP , Washburn or Ibanez .

Amp : Depend on the model your buying .

Effects : Boss or Digitech ... Personaly I'd say Boss.

If your FR bridge is at a slant, then remove the back cover on your guitar body , lock the screws more till the bridge is in place ... If you're outa room in your screws, add another spring.

For a metal pickup , you can't go wrong with EMG's , specialy EMG 81 ... Duncan or Dimarzio would be your choice for a passive pickup.
