Okay...I'm fixing to get my first guitar. I've played some with a borrowed guitar/bass, learned a couple riffs. And figured it was time I got my own, since I cant always get his to use. With my VERY limited budget, I decided on a Johnson elec, since they cost exactly as much as I have. And I haven't heard anything too terribly bad besides "They aren't great."
I can't decide which one to get...the one with a humbucker, or the one with 3 reg pickups.

I guess my question is... Does anyone know a place that I could find a couple soundbytes of a humbucked, and a non humbucked for me to compare the two. Or even an accurate explanation of the boons and banes of the two would work.

Thanks!
