Buying a new guitar... Need some advice.

Hey guys and gals.

I'm going to be buying a new guitar at the end of the month and I need some advice on what to get. I'll have about $350. I play mostly hard rock (Godsmack, Deftones, Disturbed). I was thinking about getting an ESP Viper. My only problem is... I'd want a tremolo. What should I get?

Thanks in advance.

You sure you want a tremelo? If you do, you should check out the ESP MH300, they're pretty sweet and you should be able to get one used off of ebay for 350 or less. It's got a neck-thru, which is nice. If you don't want a tremelo, go for a schecter c-1 Plus, great guitar, destroys the MH300. I just hate tremelos... they get in the way IMHO.

You should try an Ibanez RG if you want a good floydrose guitar in your price range.
