Dont know the Guitar brand but looks good and as long as it feels and plays great for you thats all that matters.
I saw a review of this amp and it got very positive feedback. I want one!
Also I am selling a Fender American Stratocaster on this site! CHf 900 Excellent guitar.
In response to the OP original question - VGS is a Korean brand (I think - maybe Vietnamese I can't remember) but designed in Germany )also some input from Switzerland I recall). I have tried a few different models and they were all ok. Definately good value for money, but not top class. Easily good enough to gig if you get that far.
Too much is said about Fender and Gibson these days I think, and there are many good guitars out there that do not have a fancy label on the headstock. That said, I still think the Fender Telecaster is the best around if you get a good one.
Many new guitar players are coming out playing all sorts of guitars now and don't care about the name whereas 20 years ago it had to be Fender, Gibson or Jackson.
I have never had a Yamaha amp, but they are a brand that has a good reputation generally with musical instruments so you should be ok.
I think you got a good buy there, hope you enjoy it :-)
Thanks, I seen 2 guitar shops around that area. I looked in them both but did not really pay too much attention to the prices since the one guitar shop had alot of Fenders and Gibsons. Way out of my price range.
I will have to go back and look again. I also need to find some where I might be able to take some lessons too. I just make noise when I play. It sure is fun though.
Nice axe man, I have some good axes but i cant plau mutch and loud as i want, the only way is to rent a room?
I have a neighbor always hit my door when i open a "little" bit my amp
Sali,hey Scandi,
As a lifelong professional guitarist I am proud to be using+playing Framus guitars for years;and I highly recommend them as well as their mega awesome company.
Framus instruments are a unique synthesis of craftsmanship and technology. No other guitars and basses,indeed few instruments of any kind;are designed and manufactured with such diligent attention to detail.
I'm glad you like Framus but a totally different league to VGS, and I think Mr PRS, Joel Danzig and Tom Anderson might not agree with your other comments :-)
I had a 10 top PRS for a few years that was top quality and played/looked like a dream but it had no soul. My stray dog of a telecaster plays better, sounds better and feels better.
BTW anybody in the Zurich area interested in VGS guitars like the OP has might want to check out promusig, they had 5 different styles this afternoon and they are all pretty good. They also have the same yamaha amp (which I didn't try - kinda attached to my Soldano...)
well guys i like that i see some guys with cool guitars
I dont have framus or prs,only some caparison jackson and esp.
All guitars are great i think now what is best for the player is what make them best for anyone i think
Hoi Nigelr,
The comments I wrote are mearly very truthful statements I totally agree from my experiences using,recording+performing with Framus guitars that I copied from their site from their CEO Mr.H.P. Wilfer.
I,myself am a proud owner of 2 custom Diablo Framus guitars;and I love my purple Matchless.
I am currently really mega enjoying my brand new Alvarez AF30CE electric-acoustic with the most truthful sounding B-Band SYS250 preamp 4-band EQ system with a LCD display fully chromatic precision built-in digital tuner.
The B-Band company makes transducers act in much the same way a condenser microphone does. This results in excellent reproduction of REAL & TRUTHFUL acoustic guitar's unique sound.Mr.Räisänen of B-Band is a serious warm-hearted inventor http://www.b-band.com . http://www.alvarezguitars.com
Tschüß,Ciao.
They also deal by post, have used them mainly in the past, good guys.
Tom
I have never played Framus but I have spoken with H-P a couple of times and he seems like one of the good guys. As a company I like them, but the guitars so far didn't do it for me.
I have a Epiphone Les paul and a marshall amp. I am just making noise now and watching some video's on youtube but it is fun.
I have been thinking about selling my setup though as I found a old VW I would like to buy. I don't know what I am going to do yet.
Which Marshall, which VW?
I'm an expert of both (really)
Oh, and I have a '60 Les Paul Junior, and a '61 Les Paul Standard (among others)
Tom
I don't know the model number off hand, I have to look and as far as the VW goes it is a 52 split. Beetle. I only like the aircooled VW's.
Well,this guitar looks very cool,satin black lespaul kinda is a chic yet rocking way to dress up an instrument..and as far as i know,if it feels good with the neck,the weight,and how you feel playing it,it's ok,if it also have a natural pleasant sound,bingo! and concerning bout your neighbohours ears...what kinda music are you going to play?
Don't forget: Smoke on the Water is plucked with finger and thumb - not strummed with a plectrum.
