Is Schecter a good brand? I think my Squier Stratocaster is broken so it's going back to Argos :(

Had to google what this meant... hahah im too young for that, sorry!

Three to get lost?

Two for the show.....

Good for the money!

The Boss WL20 doesn't seem any simpler than the Line 6 G10, but is about £30 more expensive. Any particular reason to favour the more expensive Boss over the Line 6?

Prefer the simplicity of the Boss WL20.

Any thoughts on why this would be a better choice than the Line 6 G10 which can be had for alot less? (and also has a much neater 1-piece transmitter)

Noted, thanks! I'm a bit ambidextrous so I'm not sure which I'll be more comfortable with, I'll try eighty and if it fails I'll exchange it, thanks!

Not really, you're better off buying a left handed model to begin with. The pickups would be the wrong way and the cut out will be on the wrong side to make the most of it. Same with the controls, they'd be up close to you and would be all upside down. Obviously you'd have to take the nut off and pop a LH one in too. It's not really ideal to convert it over with this and adds to the cost.

I have this exact model but in sunburst. Bloody awesome guitar. Plays better than my Gibson tbh

Does anyone know whether these guitars can easily be turned into left handed?

Thanks guys, trusting you, buying this as my first guitar! Excited!

Depends when you bought them, one of the production lines has moved to a different factory.

Rob Scallon is a legend. Such a great youtuber

He has an 8 sig, and this 6 sig.

Can't be a Scallon, too few strings...

I'm pretty sure they are made in the same factory as PRS SE's. They will have the same machines and tools (and people) used to make them. They'll have the same QC too. Personally I don't like Chapman guitars. I've played a few of them but I've also owned a few SE's. The difference isn't in quality but feel. They're totally different guitars and therefore subjective to whether one is better than the other IMO. I no longer own any of the SE's either. Just my two cents.

Thanks OP - ordered one mostly because I was curious about this NuTube ever since Korg announced it - plus the Tubescreamer's control for clean(-er) boost is a plus!

There are many TS clones which are very good. I have used Joyo vintage overdrive which is a fantastic clone . 15 to 20 quid on eBay . Another problem I have with those is that that nutube is broadly advertised as being just as good as traditional tube but at a fraction of the cost. Considering that there is a nutube amp for around 300 quid, a pedal with a single nutube at that cost comes a bit reach from Ibanez. Nothing wrong with the deal, I'lk just boycott Ibanez for these reasons

Fantastic pedal - can put it in front of ANY amp and improve the sound. NeoTrix - you gotta stop posting these deals...my bank account is taking a battering (y)

The TO800 is the same circuit as the TS808, Behringer's TS9 copy is the TO100. Why they didn't call it the TO900 I really don't know. Fragile? Not really. Less robust than a Boss would be more accurate.

Same/similar circuit as a TS9 but much more fragile for use on stage. It's all plastic. If you are a bedroom warrior though, there's no point to spend the extra money.

Epiphone. PAH!

https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/epiphone-sg-g400-pro-electric-guitar-in-cherry Same price there if you prefer PMT (shock)

Or the phone choice for those with food allergies

And there was me thinking Epiphone was an angry telecommunications device.

Yes, this is an acoustic guitar after all.

Forgive me as i have no clue. Will this be able to be played without an amp. Without plugging it in as well or does it only play when it's plugged in

I bought an APX4A as my first guitar in 1997, which was probably the equivalent of this model back then. It's had heaps of use down the years and though I don't play quite as much nowadays it's lasted well and still plays just as it did when I first bought it

Looks really nice with the flamed top, but hardware and materials don't seem much better than the cheaper models. Likely more carefully crafted and setup though.

Good price... I was looking at these at one point. Then I went mental and bought a Martin DM15 for £775! It was brand new so I couldn't say no at that price. :o

That ML1 is a looker! I won't try and make my own though :D As it's my first build, I've bought a kit and modified it. I don't have the tools or skills to start from scratch. Maybe one day though. It's been good fun so far. Once I have the hang of the basics then I'll make it more challenging. I've made slight adjustments to the body, shaped the head stock myself and changed the frets out, as they were pretty shoddy. Done some filling and started the staining process. This arrived today :) It's the small things, eh? Can see the reflection of the guitar (It's not photo ready just yet, ha) Tough one deciding on a decal for the head stock though. May leave blank, but feels weird.

How about the Harley Benton Fusion ll https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_fusion_hh_fr_roasted_blue.htm Flamed maple featuring an 'Ultra Flame' veneer Stainless steel frets Original Floyd Grovers £396 Hard to beat .

Are you following a set of plans or do you know what you're doing from experience? :{ If I had a spare £699, I'd definitely be picking up the Svart version: andertons.co.uk/cool-stuff/epic-deals/chapman-ml1-norseman-midgardsormen-svart-snt

Yeah, same! I can't be 100% that I've NEVER seen them on offer, but I am pretty sure it's a rare occurrence. I'd like to see more too, currently just a couple on Andertons. Some beautiful models on there though.I tell you what I do like though. With some of their guitars, you can pick the exact one you'll receive. Not something you see very often, unless you're buying second hand. Ohhh, someone has good taste :D They are really quite something. I keep meaning to buy a single cut, but somehow end up getting something that I never intended to buy. The worst time was when I had a single cut / hard tail in mind, then ended up with a double with a trem system... I even started to build a guitar (At the staining process stage at the moment) As I looked at it curing the other day, I thought "That's not a single cut either" (y) I was even tempted to add a FR Trem in. Terrible for it! Keeping it as a hardtail and going for the SG HP look. I'm useless!

I wouldn't mind a Chapman, big shame that so few come with the Floyd Rose. Yours for £849! https://www.andertons.co.uk/cool-stuff/epic-deals/chapman-ml2-pro-modern-in-satin-dusk :{

If it plays well and sounds good, don't worry about the colour!

An extra splash of Old Spice whilst on stage, will retrieve the situation!

Well have I got a honey burst for you! https://www.andertons.co.uk/esp-ltd-ec-1000-et-fm-electric-guitar-in-vintage-honey-burst

Nice guitar, but I am not sure that ‘lemon drop’ will appeal to the more manly amongst us!

£9 not £8 for myself, but free delivery, cheers op, heated (y)

HOTSPOT! Larders are a bit thread bare at the mo AC, so if you come up with any of your magic food / drink / condiment deals, need to go shopping in the real world and spend money with no savings next week otherwise!! (y)

Price just went up to 479. Thanks for the shove to buy at 431....

Great price. Been looking at this for my daughter’s piano lesson (we don’t have room for a piano) so this will do instead. Managed to get Amex £25 off voucher and used my membership points and paid only £271

Great timing. I was wondering how “usual” this 431 price is. Still much cheaper than any of the European Amazons. I think I’ll buy in case the price does go up as I need to buy within the next couple weeks. One question for those in the know... do you use any of the iPhone apps I see available for it and are they worthwhile? Do you need any adapter or can you connect via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi? And do you have any thoughts on the various pedals available for it? I don’t play piano at all so am a bit lost, this is for the wife...

Aye, the P45 is a lot lower spec. If you want alternatives, a common one is the Rolland FP-30, but it's quite a bit more. Similar RRP but I don't see it discounted. This has better connectivity. I managed to get the P115 for around £370 from Amazon before. Not used it yet though. Seemed the best deal for the money, as the FP30 was close to £600 I think. This is only £60 more though, so would rather have this. Hmm But a lot of people prefer the action of the FP30. The P125 has more functionality though.

Could not agree less- the P125 sounds light years better than the P45. I say this as somebody who owns a P105, P105, and Kawai digital piano

Prove It

I bought this last year for my other half - paid £31 for it on Amazon though :S Hubby loved it - the guitar case is a faux leather type tough casing rather than just a box which we still have on display. Really good quality gift which I would buy again for someone else

Order 3 and it’s free delivery (lol)

Stephen Carpenter - guitarist from the Deftones. Rob "Chappers" Chapman - demo guitarist for Andertons music and entrepreneur with his own company making guitars in China to beat the Chinese crap imports and nice bloke who reminds me of a Dad playing guitar as a hobby. It is incredible how cheap some guitars have become now. YouTube is depressing though because even 6 year old girls can play guitar better than me now, and then you have musicians such as the 24 year old Jacob Collier who are in another Universe in terms of their musical knowledge and multi instrumental talent, that if I live another 48 years (very doubtful and horrible to consider) I wouldn't get within 1% of his talent, when I watch his stuff I think "how is that even possible?" Genius is a word that is a true understatement for him.

Use with an amp that goes up to 11 and you have a mega set up.

Not my thing, but excellent value nonetheless.

hot for me too

Heat from me. Tempted at that price, but don’t have a need for a 7-string. If I did, it’d probably a LTD. I have an old LTD that’s still going strong and a dream to play. They’re not ranked with Fender and Gibson, but often the build quality’s better; certainly better than most Epiphones.

There's quite a big difference in tone, you should watch some video comparisons. Active pickups are usually very high output and don't sound good clean, and even distorted they produce more/louder harmonics than passive. On average that is, there are actives that are lower output too but the EMGs on this are not.

What’s the difference? Yeah I know I could google it but it’s Friday evening and I’ve had a beer...

It would be tempting if it had passive pickups. Not a big fan of active. The specs are really good otherwise.

I love guitars, I have too many of them. I wanted to stay in the EU just so I could buy cheap guitars from Thomann, that's how serious things are with me and the guitar.

LPs do tend to have a Maple Top, Body Binding. There's normally a Flame to the Maple which costs more and much more labour binding and finishing. Having said all that the price of LPs nowadays is crazy.

Why are they so much cheaper than Les Pauls?

Great guitarist but just not my cup of tea these days. Derek Trucks seems to play an SG and I dig his music.

Not Angus Young?

Only £29 in ALDI.
