hey, i have a couple of questions here

1. I have about RM1000 now. I'm not sure whether to get a new guitar (i have an sx vintage series strat and an acoustic now) or get a bass + amp? and if guitar, what guitar?

2. Does the tension of the string help in anyway when you're playing solos?

hey guys, I decided on getting a les paul but i don't know to get an sx one or epiphone one. I refered to my old guitar teacher, he told me to get an sx one cause with proper upgrades and tune ups, he says it can sound even better than an epiphone. But I sorta don't want to have another sx cause my strats already an sx..if an epi is the way to go, then maybe i'll go down to sg this holidays and get one. btw, my teacher also said, and i quote "epiphone is a crap brand". Discuss.

I can go for 1.3k to 1.5k..but i think i'll just get an sx custom for Rm 890 and upgrade the pickups..i feel that it's too tedious going down to s'pore to get an epiphone..what pickups do epihpones come with and how much does it cost to upgrade the pickups? cause the pickups on my strat was surprisingly good and had minimal buzz

From what i heard and read, many think SX wood is better money for the value of the money..it's practically the same or better than epiphone (according to what i heard..not sure bout this)
