Been out today, and amongst some other bits and bobs I got, I decided to finally go ahead and get a new guitar. I bought a new Gibson SG Special in the Platinum finish - and it looks great! It cost me 700 English Quideroonies, and came with a Hard Case. I havent got any pictures yet, but im sure a google search will show u what I have :) Also it plays great with my Line 6 Spider 2, so does anyone else here play guitar? What gear have you got?

700 quid for a Gibson SG? You struck out on that deal, i have an old Epiphone SG and playing that compared to a Gibson i personaly find it better. The Gibson model is alot heavier and bulkier to play. For 700 quids you would have faired one hell of alot better with an Ibanez guitar which are no doubt better than overrated Gibson guitars.

Also Line 6 Spider was a good choice, im stuck with a lousy Marshall DFX50 atm and desperatly need a new one. I was thinking about going for the Line 6 Spider 2 half stack as the Veta II looks ridiculously overpriced and i have no money lol.

I forgot effects units. I also run that through a Zoom GFX 8 (sucks) and a DIGITECH Whammy.

Im currently using a Washburn X40 http://www.guitars.co.uk/acatalog/x40_platmet.jpg But im after either a Schecter C1-FR http://www.schecterguitars.com/Dproduct ... lk_pop.jpg With tremolo bar and metal sustaining nut mmmmmmmmm

I'm currently playing through a Marshall amp with a Ibanez SA160QM / Fender American Stratocaster / Epiphone Les Paul Standard. Effects wise I've got a cheap Zoom 606 and for gigging a Boss ME-50 muti-effects.
