    Hi dear!

    The price of guitar (Electic Bass and Lead) is very cheap here. You can even buy a lead guitar in Rs/13000 with out amplifiers and speakers and complete set is near about 17000/=.

    But now a days soe Indonasian Guitar a also available here with complete package. They are of Rs 22000/=, But they are vey good in qualitu. You can even use it professionally....

    well let me add somethings here, in pakistan you can get teh electric guitar bt only 4000-5000 but they are local made guitars, never tried them so cant say anyhitng, but they are preety common here.

    Hey guys, I think local guitars actually ruin your hand and your technique so I think whatever you go for just check it first.. Can you guyz tell me where I can get an Ibanez 520 or 570 in Pakistan..

    Can you give me their address Shahrukh.. can you do it fast.. cuz I am leaving Pakistan in 5 days. Hey timber, I know the place at Alkaram, I even know the shopkeepers over there.. just be careful what you get from over there.. just check the whole notation before you get anything.. I mean notation on a guitar tuner..

    hey adnan if you are leaving pakistan then i would recomend that you buy the guitar from which ever country you are going to.....i can tell you about england... you can get an ibanez rg series for about 129 pounds and if you have a little extra cash..go for the prs sopabar se or tremonti se ..both retail at about 399 pounds...(good ones)...or if you are going to usa...then its even better becuase you can get the same guitars at the same price but in dollars there (that is 1 pound = 2 dollars so you save 50% on whatver you buy from usa!!!) its just that you will get more choice and better quality abroad...but i will PM you with the addresses when i get them...

    Hey Shahrukh.. Thanx for the advice man.. Actually I am leaving for Riyadh, KSA.. There is no dealers of guitars except for Yamaha.. and by playing them I know they suck.. I used to have a RG 470 guitar.. but the neck got some problems so I am trying to change it.. what I am looking for is RG 2570 EXVSL Prestige series or 1570 Series guitar.. and a Digitech GNX4 processor.. and a Peavey Transtube 212 Special Amp.. I know I cannot find them in Riyadh.. so I thought atleast I can buy a guitar over here in Pakistan..

    ooh....nice choice bud...you certainly know what you want....dont you...well if have so high spec details in your mind...i would say go to the shop in sadar (the one above the video game shop...:see my first post:) .... there you can ask them to get you your ibanez prestige...i am sure they can import it for you .... the rest of the shops are pretty crappy...i am not sure if they can get you such high spec guitars...

    I have been to that shop.. its called Pakistan Electronics.. they have a branch even in Islamabad.. The problem is that it is quite quite expensive.. Do you know is there any duty on importing guitars.. If there isn't then I will order myself from the internet, rather than having someone import it.. Yes, I have been playing around with guitars when I was permanently staying in Pakistan and had a band and stuff.. I have used alot of guitars but Ibanez is excellent.. I played 1570.. The prestige series is not being used by any of the musicians.. I know Salman Ahmed uses Ibanez, I think S series.. Faraz Anwar used to play with Jackson.. but the neck of Ibanez is brilliant.. and prestige series is alot quite good.. The action (distance of the strings from the neck) is so low.. and that makes it very easy to play licks and do all sorts of tricks.. That is the main reason I want to go for Prestige series of Ibanez RG.. Thanks for the help..
