Ibanez, Jackson, ESP, Dean, Shecter... Forgetting any others?

I%26#039;m looking to buy a serious metal guitar. I%26#039;ve already checked out Ibanez, Jackson, ESP, Dean, and Shecter, but I want to make sure I%26#039;m not missing any other great guitar companies... any other suggestions?

umm Paul Reed Smith is one of the most versatile guitars i own, i can play anything from blues, to metal, to classic rock on it just by changing the pickup selectors...
Reply:Gibson- Les Paul
Reply:Here is the scope.





Ibanez is a nice guitar. I own an old 1963 Gibson Les Paul. I recently purchased a Jackson to do more heavy metal tunes in the studio.





The 24 fret and active electronic of Jackson and the response blew me away. The neck has a low action and an instant response to finger-tapping.





ESP is nice as well as Dean. I also bought a Shecter 5 -string bass which also has active electronics. Sometimes, i need the bass for special runs. This bass is awesome. I can%26#039;t say anything about the guitar since I never tried one.


But if they are like the bass I tried, then I gather the guitar should be very nice.





My preference....sorry !!!! Jackson ....The floyd rose whammy bar and locked nut keepts this guitar in perfect pitch.
