Ok...it has hit me again, this time with more options. What would you think is best I should go for?

- Ibanez Xiphos (XPT700)

- LTD Alexi 600 Alexi Laiho signature model (children of bodom)

- LTD KH-2 Kirk Hammett (metallica)

- LTD Explorer, the black one with the Floyd Rose, forgot the model no.

- Jackson warrior

Well you certainly have given yourself a lot choices. I highly recommend playing the ones you desire. Then carefully evaluate the guitars. This process should give you the guitar that best suits your ear and has the best feel and playability.
happy hunting
you have the power

I love the sound of all of those. Thats why I've narrowed it down to those ones.

It all depends what you want to use a guitar for. Signature models are usually made and based on the guitarist specifications. In other words, if you are looking for a beautiful clean sound, the LTD Alexi 600 Signature model will probably not be a good idea.

This does not mean that you can't get a clean sound but they have specific pickups that deliver different tones.

Like stated below, try one out and pick something that you like and not something that somebody else likes.


Reggetton sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm also going to add LTD V to the list. Tried one out and got obsessed.
