    Wow that thread fits well...

    I think if your budget is that small it's better to save up and wait around a bit... Please don't go for Givsons guys... They are really horrible.

    Alternatively buy second hand, although I understand that first timers have a great deal of hesitation with buying a warranty-less guitar on their first buy (I know that feeling first hand ;) )

    Hmmm... Recently I've been seeing too many such threads on IGT... If things go as planned, Delhi noobs might want to keep an eye out for my Avion AV1 around January (mint condition with 2 years warranty still on it)... That should be a good bargain for any beginner on a really tight budget wanting to pick up a decent guitar...

    Brand? More jackassery. Marshall makes MGs. Are they good? No. Ibanez makes GRGs. Are they good? No. There goes your brand for you. @your sig - When you were born, God probably broke up his own guitar. :|

    I say you do what GuitarDoctor said in that thread, buy a Givson and a Stranger, and hope to evolve (read alpha1s post about that) beyond them one day,

    I really doubt if those are the actual signature guitars. I think they're more likely to be roughly based on, or dumbed down versions of, the originals. The latter would run into lakhs.

    Anyway, chill out with that newfag. Let him be...there are thousands more from where he comes. Time will teach 'em.

    Signature thing is totally outta question for a n00b... Its too early for him to fall for a signature guitar...

    No. Both are equally important. There's a reason why some guitars cost upwards of $2000.

    @Carlos...dude, epic phail. Try to understand what you do right when it comes out right out of the 20 times you try. That's all there is to it, that happened to me too...what, five years ago? :|

    I beg to differ.. You mean Slash will not sound the same if he plays it on a pac?

    Alder wood, 25.5" scale and single coils, I daresay he'll sound different.

    That's a technicality though, but gear definitely matters. Even Yngwie won't be able to shred on a Givson with uneven frets and string buzz.

    His technique and stylistic bit will sound the same. But since no two guitars sound the same, so the answer is - OF COURSE NOT :p

    @EFG (bwahahaha) - It's not a wireless. You need something like headphones or PC speakers with it.

    Ya there will be some difference because of the guitar(he plays a multi thousand Gibson) but i wanna say that he'll still sound sweet and so very Slash even with a pac.. Much better than we cud ever imagine anyone with a pac..
    No body starts with an awesome guitar at first.. its the dedication to excel that makes them become better..

    I have used the Amplug and it sounded decent to me. Used it with normal 2.1 speakers...
    But i wud suggest you to buy an amp instead..Even if its a Stranger..

    btw this thing looks sweet to me.. :)
