I've been hammering out some pretty nice ac/dc stuff on my Yamaha mate... after it was set up right I dont think you could get a better guitar in the $250 range. It has 2 single coils and a humbucker, but so far I've generally only played the lead postion on teh selector when I'm doing ac/dc, which I believe only runs the front/top single coil pickup
