    Hi I am confused about what guitar to buy,I am shelling out 20,000Rs for this guitar and I dont want to take any chances as its a big amount for me.I have narrowed down on four guitars.I am a metal guitarist and want the guitar to be good for shredding and sweeping and of course having a dark,mellow tone.I also want to use the guitar for live playing,no backup.
    Ok,now the guitars:-
    1.Esp F100.
    2.Esp Ax50.
    3.Ibanez Rg351 Dx
    4.Ibanez 471 Ah.
    I am really confused because:-
    **I am not sure whether esp is a better brand than Ibanez and the servicing available in India.
    1.Esp f100,Ax50 has tune-o-matic bridge,a nice body but two pickups.
    2.Ibanez has three pickups but no tune-o-matic and typical ibanez body.Also if the above Ibanez models are available in India.
    Please Help me out guys!!!

    i called up some guitar shops in kolkatta and delhi and the ibanez models mentioned above are not available in India.What other brands can I consider in India?Range 20k,Fixed bridge and metal tone.????

    Ibanez RG series is good in general. RG321MH would have been a good choice but it's discontinued now. See what fits your bill.
