a decent guitar for £150?

Sign in to disble this ad
I've been looking around for a CHEAP guitar and so far I have only found one that seems to be of ok quality,

Epiphone Limited Edition Les Paul Junior (Pitch Black)

Are there any other guitars out there that feel good to play? (I not too fussed if it sounds bad, I could replace the P-ups and pots).

NOTE: I'm not a beginner so I don't need to buy one of them starter kits were you get a shoddy 10 watt amp

Thanks guys!

EDIT: I would possibly be willing to stretch to 200, but not much higher
EDIT2: the bands I play mostly on guitar... MxPx, Rise Against, Gallows

Those axl badwaters are MACHINES. No joke. Also, the Musician's Friend insane deal of the day is a freaking Wilkshire for $200!

Wait, I'm speaking Yankee and you are of the Kingdom. I apologise for leading you up the garden path.

This will for sure cut the mustard.

Wow I've been checking the specs and that seems like a great guitar for the price! I'm gonna have to check these out

Thanks for the post

Its my guitarist's main axe (no pun intended!). Based on the guitar world review, my dad and uncle picked one up and raved about them. So my guitarist got one. Stays in tune, shreds, already distressed so no worries on banging it around. He put guitarfetish overwound pickups in the neck and middle, and then a dimebucker in the bridge. The thing screams!!! Nothing against epiphones, mind you. I'm an epi bass nut! But this axl will give you the humbucker nasties in the bridge postition and the blues danube on the neck postion no problem. Good luck!
