In a few months (a few months too long if you ask me) I'll be in the market for a new guitar.
I'm currently using a friends borrow Fender Squier Bullet Strat but it doesn't have the sound I want.
I'm modeling my playing around Metallica and other metal bands like Iron Maiden etc, but I'm not sure what brand I should be looking at for a second guitar, something that sounds more like the sound I want.
I've been researching ESP and Epiphone, ESP have a Kirk Hammett series of guitars that are at the upper end of my budget, but if I can get something similar for a bit cheaper and when I eventually get partly decent, I'll look at another one then
Any comments, suggestions of others?
The reason for the delay is it'll be a self-birthday present in September
