i have been saving up a long time for a new guitar and amp. i have been dreaming about the ltd f250 for a long time. its so awsome looking and even sexy. i want to make love to this guitar :p . its $420. but iv heard bad things about the pickups. u know the kind of humbuckers that are like plates, instead of the kind with the lil metal dots. u know what im talkin about. iv always thought that the plate kind was alot better, until i playd both kinds and i liked the way the "dotty" one sounded. (they shud really have names for different pickups) ...(mabey they do, i dunno).
neways, i wanted to keep my eyes open for an alternitive choice. and then i found the jackson warrior. this guitar also looks cool, altho the ltd looks cooler. but looks arnt everything. this guitar is $400. this one has the "dotty" pickups that i think i like better.
please look up these guitars at muciansfriend.com. tell me which one u think is a better deal. :D

The difference between the "dotty" humbuckers and the "plate" ones is that the "plate" ones have covers over them. They're still pretty much the same on the inside... (I think, haven'r really gutted one to see :P) But as for the difference in humbuckers the Jackson is likely to have Jackson humbuckers or Seymour Duncans in it, while the F-250 has a set of EMG-HZs (Either HZ4s or HZ1s...). From what I've heard about the EMG-HZs, the only good ones are the HZ4s. Seymour Duncans have a nice sound, or the ones I played on did.

Both Jackson and ESPs (LTD) are nice brands of guitar, so whichever you pick is going to be good. The Jackson is likely going to have the better sound though if its a Warrior XT. If not then I'd swing for the F-250. But that's just what I'd do...
