I think it we should make another list of guitars that contains guitars we would recommend buying, because most people ask for recommendations from us. especially in the sub 15k/20k/25k budget.

Different people have different tastes. I think it's best to segregate the guitars price wise + according to the suggestions given by alpha, and then put a disclaimer, asking the users to try everything from the list that suits their wallets best and then decide what they like best. After all, that is the best advice one can give.

But most of the beginners dont know what they like because they havent heard good stuff. We can recommend some good guitars, by good i mean good in playability and construction and dont have any flaws like for example the ibanez GRG 170Dx is to avoided by all irrespective of their tastes.

The list was created long time back and the prices might have increased by now... Thanks for the correction !

Hey nice thread, I was wondering when this would come up! Add the cort kx1q and also add a list of amps. And why doesn't anyone here suggest a peavey vypyr? Its the best guitar amp for that budget!!

Dont add any Bc Rich
We dont want beginners going for them just for the shape
Add the Yamaha RGX 121z
Its 500 bucks more than the pacifica 112 but has superior gain capabilities and playability
i reall like its blues sound as well
I always recommend the RGX over the 112
