I've been looking at these ridiculously-cheap guitars for so long, never dared to order one. How do you like that Les Paul clone? They look awfully nice.

For me being lefty its worth the money. The guitar body is great with this company only thing that sucks are the keys, and floyd rose chassy..the metal seems real cheap to me and over time they tighten up and just dont feel "real" (and floyd rose tuning just sucks anymore, too much of a pain in the ass for me)

I have the les paul clone, and I went and changed the pickups and repainted it..Its not too bad, sounds better with the better pick ups, but again the metal parts just seem shitty.

Are you lefty?
 
Meh. Short of finding a 50's Fender one day, I'm done trading guitars. I used to collect pretty heavily (for a lefty anyway), up to 20 instruments at once at one point including two Paul Reed Smiths I was too scared to take out in public.

Acoustic guitar is on loan to a lady friend.

I will record something for Gamelive shortly, just need to find a crucial piece of equipment that's in a box somewhere.

I used to make cds for my band in HS all the time off of just a 4 track and a few mic's. Sounded so old school metal. I tried to attempt the same process a few years back and I got nothing but feedback and garbage, I could never get that sounds back. I believe that attic we did the recording in, was the key to the sound.

lol, when we did the guitar riffs we would put the mic in front of the amp and cover the amp with a thick towel, got this incredible metal sound, of course you had to cut out 90% of the bass from the amp.

Haven't used an amp in so long. Last gigs I played were 100% digital, guitar into a POD then straight into the PA. Blasphemy I know, but so much more convenient than hauling amps around.

Now it's all Guitar Rig 3 & 4.
