I currently play the Ibanez Guitar. GIO series. Its a very basic model and I am currently looking to buy a new guitar.
The thing is, I dont know which guitar to buy.
Even though I have learnt a lot of theory and practiced most of my favourite songs and jammed with friends, Im pretty clueless on what guitar would be best suited for me.
By word of mouth, I do know that the Fender Strat and the Gibson Les Paul are the 2 most popular guitars, but I play songs that are influenced by both guitars, and more..
The bands that influence me most are, Metallica, Megadeth, Pink floyd, Guns N Roses, Pearl Jam, Iron Maiden, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Goo Goo Dolls, AC DC and so on.
So you see, I don't know whether to go in for a Fender Strat, Les Paul, Jackson, a better Ibanez model, ESP Ltd or something else.
Is there any guitar that produce sounds that is more a less compatible with most of these songs?
Will buying a good processor help get the sound of Comfortably Numb- Pink Floyd on a Gibson? Or Playing Master of Puppets on Fenders?
Looking forward to your replies.
Thanks
Veer
