My friend has the ex260!. It plays great but I'll tell you, his guitar can't handle down tuning, it sounds muddy!. If you plan on playing in standard tuning go for it!. Hve you ever tried a schecter!? they're pretty good for the kind of metal you play!.!.!.
They're pretty inexpensive too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
I have an old 63 Les Paul !.!.!.!.!.In the studio , I love the Jackson because of the active electronic!. superb action and bite and the 24 fret job!.
But that is my opinion!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
The new guitar I'm thinking of buying is the
Epiphone Futura Prophecy EX for $550!. It's like a offset Explorer shape!.!.!.!.a real cool looking axe!. This baby has a set of active EMG 81/ 85 pickups!.!.!.which are the same EMG pickup sets that Zakk Wylde & Jeff Hanneman use!. I've been hearing that EMGs are the way to go for a "brutal metal sound" !.!.!.!.so, I'm thinking about getting this guitar next month!.
