I am seriously considering a Variax guitar from line 6, they are digital I belive and fake the sound of many guitars including two of the guitars in your list and a acoustic or two depending on the model to a very high standard if the reviews are correct. One of our members has one and his sound samples were good.

I am torn between a few including Gibson SG, Gibson Les Paul, Fender Strat (Clapton model) so I think a Variax would suit me. I spent an hour last week in a shop playing the 3 Variax models 300, 600 and 700 and they are a good compromise I think and would suit me and my standard fine. The shop also hooked it up to a PC and I changed a couple of the custom settings, I was amazed that I could drop the tuning at the flick of a switch or change the positions of the pick ups or the pick ups or just about any thing I want.

Hey, I think I am sold already!
