Hi!
The last few months I've been planning my next guitar, saving up and browsing the web for the right one for me.
I have a budget for around 2500$ but will gladly settle for cheaper if I find the right one.
But 2500 is my limit.
I have been looking at the Ibanez prestige line and the only eye-catching guitars there for me is the
Ibanez RGDR4327 and the Ibanez RGR752AHBF
But as far as the specs goes, those guitars is not really what I'm looking for.
I would like a 7-string either ST style or Tele style guitar with fishman pickups and an Evertune bridge.
I've found that Solar has tons of these guitars with the specs I want and they look good aswell.
But I would like some further recommendations as I'm not the biggest gearguy and don't know that many brands besides the standards like Ibanez, ESP, Scehcter and stuff like that.
I have an Ibanez RGIF7 that I really like and an ESP/LTD eclipse 401 that I really like aswell, so I've just always thought that I'd just go for any of those brands, but it might be more fun to try something new.
I would love to have an MIJ guitar like the Ibanez prestige but if the Indonesian-made Solar has the specs I want and still looks good, then where it's made doesn't really matter all that much.
The looks of the guitar is actually more important for me than where it's made, since I know that a pretty guitar will make me play even more.
My preferences in looks is mostly modern, like the mayones duvells, and the Skervesen Raptors. But even used, those are out of my budget.
But i still enjoy the more classical glossy finishes that ESP puts out aswell.
I would love some suggestions, either if there are some brands I should check out, some models from previously mentioned brands or just recommendations on what you would have gotten with if you had that budget to choose from.
This is the first time I feel like I'm going ''High-End'' so it's a big deal for me!
