If your budget is at 600-700
definitely yamaha pacifica already..
SX, ibanez Gio , Squier , craftsman , Santa cruz etc.. no competition already lahh..if below RM500 then SX lar..
the only thing that comes close to a yamaha pacifica at RM600+ is ibanez GSZ series

QUOTE(Equilibrium777 @ Apr 14 2007, 11:02 PM) wonder who brings in Mesa now. . . lolz. . . and why yamaha pacifica? it depends on the player right? i mean if he likes the fender tone then i guess go squier. . . and the SX and Ibz aren't all that bad hm..cause the quality control is there.. i vote yamaha pacifica as best taiwan/china made ...and value for money lar.. those 1k USD dean , Hamer , Brian Moore..you pay so much for an MIC meh.. plus for me...i feel SX is sooo overrated ...samick , SX , craftsman..all the same for me..wouldn't get them

QUOTE(TheWhacker @ Aug 25 2007, 07:45 AM) I notice some shops don't get thier stuff from Bentley already. Like Harmony Music for example, the uncle said he'll order directly from Singapore if you want to order a Fender, Zildjian cymbals and the not. I didn't asked why he's buying directly from Singapore, but yea he;s not getting from Bentley. Why go through Mr. Tan ? order through me lahhh...support me abit

QUOTE(Irzani @ Dec 7 2007, 07:17 AM) Your suggestion model? I heard the seller said, the more expensive the guitar, the best and quality guitar I get .. is it true? Let's make a general assumption .. if there's 2 option available . 1) Yamaha - worth 800 2) Ibanez - worth 650 Which one should I take? Is it true Yamaha better than Ibanez because it's more expensive and it'll give me more quality and better sound ? Or I paid more because of it's brand? Noob here .. Thank you  its true at a certain level....i.e huge price difference , a korean made and american made... but in your case , its not true ..

QUOTE(Rossie @ Apr 3 2008, 05:01 PM) Do check out OLP's newest edition to the family... Although it's a limited edition... It's basically an OLP MM1 FR (EBMM Axis) with higher grade hardware (OFR) http://www.olpguitars.com/Plus the QC of OLP of this particular batch of guitars are better... Then again, OFRs are not as good as they were... If everything goes well, SMX will be the distributor for EBMM and Taylor in Malaysia by end of this year... That means we'll get a good range of EBMM guitars and basses for all to check out... Plus SMX have great CS...  they better have big capital for getting EBMM... EBMM asks for a very high commitment ..in order to get the full discount for dealership..just like LTD/ESP thats why in U.S ...its either you find a shop that has MASSIVE EBMM GUITARS ..or you find only 1 or 2 EBMM in a store.. biggies like sam ash/guitar store also don't commit to EBMM ..lol..tough ass brand ..i like ..

QUOTE(linkinwayne @ May 23 2008, 01:27 PM) Not exactly. Micro Cube is an insanely good amp for the price, and it's actually quite cheap. I heard you can get it for around RM700 or so nowadays. I got mine for RM600. As for the guitar, I generally wouldn't advice going for a guitar that costs about Rm1.5k. They're generally marketed as being ' mid-range' guitars, but the fact is that there's hardly any difference from the low range guitars. In that sense, you'll be better off just getting a starter pack. Though from your apparent budgeting scheme, we have RM3k to spend. So that's RM700 for Micro Cube, RM2300 left for the guitar. In my opinion, you can get a pretty good one for RM2000, it just depends where and what you buy. that is pretty ex for a microcube ..unless you are in sabah or sarawak or smtg...

QUOTE(Bigblock @ Mar 23 2009, 04:47 AM) Guys i am hoping to pick up an LP100 as i am a beginner and i was thinking of amps which has all the effects included because i am still deluded (noobish) so i was thinking of : 1.Roland micro cube 2.line 6 spider 3 Can i know the expected price for a LP 100 and any recommended amps? my total budget is 1.5k, prefer a started guitar without a gig bag and an amp. Thanks guys  RM1.5k ? that is pretty high .. You can try Ibanez SA together with a Roland Microcube .. i would suggest that .. Another way is to go for Yamaha Pacifica + Roland Microcube + Extra money to get a Zoom/KORG multieffects
