So this is it guys! Cool. The Big Page o' Guitar GoodiesYeah, I love playing my electric. Acoustic is nice too, but I prefer the lighter strings and lower action of an electric any day. So, here's some stuff any guitar player will find useful, no matter how green.
My equipment (highly recommended!)Epiphone G-400 Deluxe Flametop (list $750) - a very nice guitar! Sunburst finish, dual humbuckers with separate tone and volume for each, 3-way switch for the pickups, classic Gibson SG body shape, and output jack on the front down by the knobs. The strap attaches to the bottom (as it sits in a stand) and to the back of the guitar. Digitech RP-2000 Modeling Guitar Effects System (list $400) - sweet effects pedal. Probably the best pedal under $600. The next best is the $600 Digitech GNX2. Four switches, assignable analog pedal (for Wah, volume, amp gain, effect volume, or whatever), Bank/Patch mode, Next Bank/Patch switch, assignable Control switch to manipulate an effect in real time, rhythm trainer with 30 drum patterns, Learn-A-Lick, Jam-a-long jack, headphone jack, digital S/PDIF output, auto-chromatic tuner, MIDI connectivity, and so much more. Fully customizable effects:
