You can't get the perfect answer by asking anyone else.

Any comparison between different makes/models of guitar is Apples:Oranges.

The ONLY right answer to your question is which one sounds, looks, plays and feels right to YOU !!

You're the one paying for it and you're the one who's gonna have it around for some time.

Quit asking the Forum for advice and just go out and play them all.

The correct one for you will become quickly apparent.

Good Luck !!

cheers!

... or not so quickly. Some G.A.S. for something different for the rest of their lives. I'm one of them.

Tru dat.
A friend of mine asked me to buy a guitar for his teenage son...I said I couldn't do that, I could only make recommendations. When he pressed me as to why, I said, "I can't choose underwear for you, because we don't have the same butt."

Consequently, I took his kid to Guitar Center and an amazing independent shop that deals in (mostly) used gear (if you are ever in Fort Worth, go to Competition Music and buy something from Scott...warning: it is in a VERY rough neighborhood, but it's worth it), and let him try everything. He ended up buying a guitar that was massively different from the style that he THOUGHT he wanted, because the "feel" and "sound" is more important than the "look" or reputation of an instrument.

I can't choose a guitar for anybody else, because I don't have your hands, body or ears...plus, what doesn't sound or feek good in my hands may be amazing in another player's hands.

I prefer apples to oranges, but sometimes there's that one orange I can't pass up. Just try them all and you'll know for sure.

*I* don't like strats and les pauls are too heavy for me... if it was me *today*, I'd get a nice tele or Gibson SG.

I'm sure that isn't useful information, but you asked. As others have said, go play them and buy the one that feels right to you!

:)
