[EricM15]

Hi all, i'm new here!
Found your site on youtube by some user @ there!

But heres my question:
I don't have a big budget, but i would like a good guitar for my class.. i almost play 1 year but im a very quick learner (my band says)
I play things like BulletForMyValentine, DevilDriver etc... metal... :) Dont know if you guys like it, but i do.
But back to the question... wich one should i pick? Or Does someone have a better suggestion?(Ps.. im from the netherlands) :w:

My gear now:
-Fame 60 watt Tube Amp
-Harley Benton Black Beauty Les Paul ... although it's a low-priced guitar,, all my m8's stood still when they played on it or heared how it sound..
It's sick for it's price!


Could someone help me please?:)!

Yo Eric,

I can see that you're a V lover. Do you like string-thru or Tune-O-Matic bridges better?

I've played Rondo stuff, but the Douglass is a lower end. The last two are a bit vague in their specs.

I think out of looks, the last V (HARLEY BENTON HBR10BK) looks the wicked. I also like the old Gibson style - (HARLEY BENTON FV430BK)

I wish I knew what wood they are and had more photos.

Did you play any of these? What's your budget?

Check out Jackson's Demmelition King V. Or the BC Rich NT V, or if you really want to get extreme check out the BC Rich Chuck Shuldiner Stealth. If you don't like tremelo's, the King V(not the Demmel model) is also made in a Fixed bridge, as well as the BCR V. Another one you might consider is the ESP/LTD V500 or V200, both excellent weapons to add to your arsenal. :w:

by the way.. if you click on the links.. it says what wood + pickups etc they have! :)

i now have HB Les Paul Alder :)Tune-O-Matic

Okay, now I see the HBR10BK is basswood body. So that'll have a lighter wood than mahogany.

The old Gibson knock-off doesn't say the wood.

HARLEY BENTON FV430BK

Harley Benton FV430BK electric guitar - 2 humbuckers, 3-way toggle switch, 2x vol & 2x tone controls, bolt-on maple neck with rosewood Fretboard, 22 frets, 44mm saddle width, 65cm scale. Colour: Black
