I'd go with the Melody Maker. I'd dump the pickguard, and get out the Krylon and paint it. It's just a much better guitar IMO. The P-90's are great pups. I know a guy that gigs with the Hello Kitty. He customized the kitty though to try to make it a little more manly, but the pink think is a little too weird for me.

ralf, I didn't imply anything about whether or not I liked Avril's music. Her first album had lots of power and deserved its sales, no doubt! Didn't really like the unplugged show, and she quietly slipped off my radar eventually. I was just adding another simplistic guitar with (now ex-)teen appeal. :)

How's that strat purchase of yours going, BTW? Did you get a blue one?

Cheers

+1

But before the Krylon I'd relocate the tailpiece back and fit a TOM bridge in its stead.

that i understand and it's true it does have a simplistic teen appeal i never expected she'd get a tele i thought gibson would endorse her... lol it's kinda on hold until i get the rest of my cash i currently have 205 euros and i'm planning on giving lessons to accelerate the process what sucks is i have to wait till the end of the summer for my summer job and i would be loaded if i could wait a little longer but i really want to get this guitar done i'm going for the blue one... i'm getting a lot of GAS attacks on the way but i always return to that guitar :lol: :lol: :lol: i'm a little conflicted on drilling the holes i don't know why to me that's the scary part

Also this.

As a matter of fact, Epiphone seems to have the better quality control of the two.....

Maybe yours , but not mine.


Go play 10 new Gibsons at a store. You'll notice that they are extremely inconsistent, ranging from bad (be it the finish, electronics, how it plays, etc), to god-tier instruments that you don't want to put down.
