I really haven't got a clue what is a good guitar or not so the posts have been a big help. I think i'm going to keep with my current guitar for a while and "get to know it better". It's clear to me from the replies that I don't really know my own guitar all too well!

I'll come back to the suggestions in this thread when I do decide to buy a new guitar. Christmas is just around the corner after all!

So that one's 26 years old and still workin', I'll never let 'er go, and here's a 1994 Peavey Reactor/Tele owned by my eldest daughter, then son, then me, and I flogged the living daylights out of it, before selling it in good shape to a professional.

Welcome to the forum. I hope that some of the UK people can steer you better, with their intricate knowledge of what is available there, across the pond. It's another world in terms of music products and selection to me. THEY know gear. :lol:

So, there's your guitar, unless yours is coloured purple, and sure it's a shredder's instrument, but I don't see why it can't be used for rock. Still, it's a good question, and I immediately think of SG, one of the Epiphones, or an Agile or Ibanez Les Paul design and also some of the better quality SquierTele's which are not entry level, but copies of USA classics. 8)

I think you'll need to spend a little more, see Peavey, and Squier Tele's http://www.guitarbitz.com/electric_guitars.htm

Tokai's and Tanglewood are exceptional, and will serve you well. This catches me! http://www.guitarbitz.com/1212.htm]]> Opinions and Polls Blue Jay https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/guitar-advice-needed/#post-358309 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/guitar-advice-needed/#post-39802 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 20:01:50 +0000
I'm looking at buying a guitar which is more suited to rock as mine is more a metal guitar. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I'm willing to spend about £100-£150 on one. Thank you for your time.]]> Opinions and Polls Shadowman https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/guitar-advice-needed/#post-39802
