True, I am looking for a Les Paul that is at a cheaper price, Gibson or Epiphone. Hopefully something under $1000, and I have bought alot of used items before and am very comfortable buying used items so that is not an issue.

As for Bass guitars, I was looking at Songbird Music, and noticed some Jay Turner basses for $200. A Neighbour who has been pkaying music for 30 years, just bought a Jay Turner bass(the same kind I am looking at), because he said they are cheap but good quality, of course nothing compared to a high end Fender or something like that. I beleive I will be buying this bass next week....pay day.The Les Paul will have to wait, but I am considering them.
