i'm selling my ibanez guitar and bass on ebay right now. they have no resell value no matter how much stuff i put into them (they're like pimp my ride specials). 2 music stores wouldn't give me hardly anything for the both of them and they both have emg's but they play like beginner ibanez's. so i decided to go the ebay route.
i no longer want to play bass, i just want to play guitar (i guess it's my new year's resolution). anyway, i'm looking at my next guitar. i want a good guitar for metal with no tremolo. i've narrowed it down to 3 options:
1. Schecter C1. put an emg 81 in the bridge and an 85 in the neck. buy thick strings and tune low (CGCFAD). $500-$800
2. Schecter Omen 6. put an emg 81 in the bridge and an 85 in the neck. buy thick strings and tune low (CGCFAD). $350
3. Custom warmoth guitar with a vip body or soloist body. put an emg 81 in the bridge and an 85 in the neck. buy thick strings and tune low (CGCFAD). (God only knows how much money)
so in essence i'm asking about build of the guitar. is a c1 really that much of a better build than an omen 6. is it worth the extra money? the c1 is made out of mahogony with a set neck (that should produce les paul like sustain). the omen 6 is made out of basswood and it has a bolt-on neck.
