Which guitar should i get?

Question

i want an electric guitar to play heavy metal songs stuff like slayer metallica dragonforce.what kind of guitar should i get since i dont know so much about guitars.

Answer 1

the best heavy metal guitars are Dean  and Ibanez... but it doesnt all have to do with guitars... it also has to do with the setting on your AMP, mostly Bass

Answer 2

I think the stratocaster has the best heavy metal sound.  You can get a generic brand if you want to save money.  You don't have to get a Fender, unless you have the extra money.

Your best bet is to go to a guitar store and have someone there let you try all sorts of types of guitars. Les Pauls have a different pickup and sound quality.  (That's what Page used in Led Zeppelin.)

Look for ones that feel good in your hands, aren't too heavy in weight and sound good.

Also you need a good amp.  I have a DST 80/80 head and a set of large speakers and I can make tons of heavy metal sounds with it.

I'm not that good on guitar, but it sure sounds good.   :)

Enjoy !!

Answer 3

Answer 4

Were I you, I'd visit the following site, join the group, and pose the same question. This is a group devoted to heavy metal bands and the equipment they use. If you want to play/sound like them better think about getting the same equipment.
