tough one to call. While I voted for two selects, the fact is I do believe that a expensive guitar does not always equal a great guitar. I have seen some selects that look and play very plain vanilla. I have also had sme standards that kick butt. But I have also seen a lot of standards that are beyond generic and nothing special at all and it seems the more $$$ guitars are more likely to be a good player.

I have no interest in a bunch of generic, nothing special cheap guitars. I have even less interest in spending lots of money on a bad playing guitar.

That being said, I own a select tele, and its freaking awesome. Shop around to guys, selects were going for 1700 new before xmas.

I was looking to get a select strat hss rosewood, but the 2013 with its aged hardware and ugly headstock is just aweful.

If I didn't have to pay rent, eat food and enjoy hot water, I'd be buying me a few of them bad boys, too!
