Hello, It's now been a year since I've been playing and I have the opportunity to get a new guitar, but I have to keep my price low. I'm shopping at guitar center and am interested in the guitar above, but can only afford used. I'm a metalhead, but am unused to tremolos. My other idea was to get a squire and mod it into Dave Murray's 80's strat (can you tell I'm an Iron Maiden fan?) I have a boss katana ex. I'm also a fan of Judas Priest, Sabaton, Megadeth and more. Humbuckers are a must.

Looks like it has a Floyd Rose Special, which doesn't seem to be spoken of highly... I'll let someone more knowledgeable chime in, though 🙂

What’s your budget, and what do you want from the guitar?

What’s your budget, and what do you want from the guitar?
I'm wanting a good tremolo that go up and down.. good metal humbuckers. I really don't want to go above 450

Still an FR Special tho, right? I thought those would wear quickly?
I don't know anything about FRs

I don’t either tbh, but I don’t really see how it could be that bad
It’s not like it’ll fall apart after one pantera song

I would try and look at a Harley Benton but a used one in America. They have a lot of different options and are very good quality especially for the price of them. The next closest price range for the quality of your guitar from another brand would be around 350$ so it’s well worth checking out

The reason i didn’t recommend HB
Was because of the WC
Now I am willing to deal with it
But most aren’t
@cosmic granite how do you feel about getting a guitar and sending it back for a new one if it comes out bad
Because if you’re okay with it
You just got a whole load of options

I just got a Harley Benton for Christmas and it is amazing it has to HH passive humbucker pickups with a 3 way tone switch and it looks like it’s strait out of the kiss army lol
