I have 2500 $ what guitar should I get ?

[MythicSquirrel]

Check out Bowes. Brian is based out of Canada, and a great guy. Not sure how big his wait list is right now though.

Of course I know what EBMM means, maybe there as been some misunderstanding (i'm french)

@Watty, I received the money from the summer job I did (they paid me late and I moved to canada in the meantime and forgot a bit about this). + I live in a flat with two roomates, and I already have the necessary gear to play. I just need a new guitar.

You could also add a few bucks and buy my Mint like new Jackson 27" Custom Shop

Yummmy Jackson 27". I got a MIJ DK27D for $250 about 8 months ago..has easily become my favorite guitar.

JPX 12 or JPXI (7 strings obviously). Best production 7s out there.

Je pense que italmelodie a une coupe de music man 7 cordes je sais pas si cest des model jp par contre.

En attendant je suis d' accord avec les autres ,dépense pas ton cash juste pour le dépenser.

Long & Mcquade in Canada carry ebmm, if there isn't a store nearby, find one to drive to or order online.

Not online. And they can bring in 7 strings.

Long & McQuade - Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci XI - Onyx Black With Piezo

Select the 7 string from drop down menu. They should be able to bring it in to a local store for you to try/buy.

So, why spend the whole amount on one guitar? If you live with two roomies, there's a chance that one of them could miss making their share of the rent. Might be good to have some contingency cash instead of an EXTRA nice guitar...like I said, you can get a very nice guitar for less than half your budget.

Unless anybody can find me a Schecter Solo 7 (limited edition discontinued), I dream of a JP7

Does anyone knows if FirstAct guitars make Custom 7 strings ?

 

[VBCheeseGrater]

Although not likely popular, my personal opinion is get something you like in the sub $1000 range. Past that, it's diminishing returns on your investment from a practicality standpoint. then you've got $1500 for an amp, another guitar, or to throw in the bank for peace of mind. Plus then you can continue to scower craigslist and ebay knowing you've got the cash to pick something nice you might see. To me, that's worth more than some fit & finish details.

Yea they do. I'v seen some guys in big pop acts having custom shop first acts.
The guitar player in Ghengis Tron also plays one.
