SGs have a design flaw. The necks are very unstable. The ex is the better choice. Better yet get a Zak Wilde if you want to shred. This site is a good place to learn basics,but you are in the wrong place to learn about shredding and scale running. You will find kindred spirits at this forum. More metal hard rock kinda place.
