hey guys, I'm digging both of these guitars. They are both very close in price (the Schecter is about $140 more).
I never played either... no dealers in the area so it's a blind purchase for me.
I live the look of the Washburn and the fact that it's a little cheaper helps.
The Schecter seems to have better components like SS frets and SD pickups... but I don't like the look as much.
Any thoughts? Suggestions? other models that are similar that you would suggest?
