Electric Guitar Purchase Looming
I've been playing acoustic 6 string for about 5-6 years now and I am drooling to get an electric.

I have no idea where to begin. I do know the sound I want to achieve but am clueless how to get there. The sound is pretty close to this song:



What do I need besides an axe and amp? Humbuckers, pickups, hiccups, humpickers? Teach me, planet.

I know others may have had luck, but I'll never buy a Line 6 product again. I spent nearly $700 on my Spider III in 2008; had to move to an apartment nearly immediately after. Amp sat in a closet during that time, then we moved to the house we're in now. a month ago (after 3 years in this particular closet) I re-strung the Tele, and the amp was AFU. apparently very common errors on the LCD screen etc. it turns on, but multiple guitars, and multiple cables, yielded no sound. I asked a local guy I've gone to for years about it, and he referred me to another local guy who does amp repairs. as soon as I said the words "Spider III" he interrupted me and told me what problem I was experiencing. I guess it was / is very common, and needs the board replaced. after the part (assuming that's what the issue is) replacement and labor to do so, I'm going to be out $250 (estimated by the guy). F that.

new amp, sat in a closet for nearly 6 years.....and it doesn't fire right up. POS.
never should've gotten rid of my Marshall.

You have and Epiphone SG? So do I. Absolutely love it! I'll put that thing up against anything within that range or even slightly higher and dare you to beat it. Amazing value.

I teamed mine up with a Marshall DSL15C amp with a Big Muff pedal (Russian version). Sounds great even without the pedal but I like that Doomy sound (Electric Wizard type of thing).

My team.



The pick caddy is gone. It was a gift so I felt compelled to have it on there for a bit.

Sold it a long time ago, a dumb move

But yeah, light yet still had a thick sound, super easy to play and the stock humbuckers are a great value.

Epiphone SG is garnering my attention, for sure.

Thats a beaut, and if he's looking to spend 7-800 it leaves a bunch of money left over for an amp.

Pair that SG with this Marshall for $150 and you've got left over coin for a pedal. All set!

I've been using Line 6 amps for quite a while now and won't probably use anything else ever again.

Yeah. I figured I was the poor bastard that got burned on the deal. I loved it when it worked it. Great bang form the buck. Effects etc.
