the guitar (grx40) is a good beginners guitar. i've owned it before and it plays quite well if properly setup. i've used it for 5 years before upgrading.

i don't know about the amp though. 10watts is good for room practice i suppose.

ok then no other reccommendation for rm835 ringgit?

What do you usually play?

what arr?? i play anything that i learn lor...
just asking for beginner guitars
i heard that sx strat and microcube is a good build
but i dont know where i can find one T_T im living in ipoh

where did you quote the price for the jumpstart set?
kinta city?

i saw a microcube sitting on the racks in that shop. and a few SX guitars were on display. not a strat though.

sx guitars and microcube are very well recommended here for beginners... i dont know how to get it in ipoh but it just 2hrs bus ride to kl... come by bus, look for sx guitars and stuff in woh fatt (which is nearby the puduraya), then walk to ck music... look for microcube u wanted, test it... then if u still have the stamina u can walk a lil bit more to bentley, look for stuff u like.. then go back to ipoh... no pain no gain man..

nope from jusco

go and look around. ask the shops. try and feel it. i think ebony guitar have a few SXs over there too. but their service aint that good

ebony??? where is dat?

single coil can play oso rite distortion effect?... humbucker later oso can upgrade..

Yes.... Any guitar can play distortion.
But the single coils arn't really suited for metal, as they don't have the output you'd like for metal songs......... Especially stuff like children of bodom, Metallica, Trivium or stuff like that.........

dont forget the hum from single coils

Ebony is at the traffic light near Jalan Yang Kalsom (near to MGS) but i tell ya, they are freaking unfriendly. There was once my friend asked to see the guitar, but the owner asked " Are you going to buy?" Wtf? Kinta city is much better in term of serving.

how much does humbucker pups usually cost?
whut are the best combination for a beginner like me..? h-s-s??... (or maybe lets just stick to single coil..)
btw thanx ipohboy

+1 to ipohboy. hate the ebony boss

to TS, i think H-S-S or H-S-H is fine for you if you're not sure what songs you gonna play most. Or in other words if you want a versatile guitar.
at least the above stated combination got both single coil and humbucker

i too recomend rock fellas get humbuckers
single coils dont sound right in metal to me....

however, if theres a HSS u can try tat
or like the pacifica model i once work wit..
under the pickguard theres tis whole empty rectangular cavity
so jus need to make a hole for the humbucker to fit in
and convert a HSS to HSH

ermm h-s-s is okay rite?... so i do i nid to cut anything from sx strat?

If you're planning to get Humbuckers, just go for a Yamaha Pacifica instead. They sound better then the SX, costs only a little bit more, and has alot of room for mods.
Alot of our forumers are also using the Pacifica........ Led Zep used one for the longest period of time before upgrading to a Fender.

wow u damn rite looks nice oso and it comes with a h-s-s combination
but how much is the cost for this baby?

We're looking at the RM600 range...... but it's well worth it and you can probably bargain for less or throw in stuff like a gig bag, picks, cables and a tuner.

can u tell me wich model pls i go to the shop liao the price is OMG 800+ he ask for the model that is price range between 600 as u said

that shop just quoted you the list price.
ask properly and should be able to get 10% off.

thanx all sifus here

humbucker in the neck position will sound 'creamy' for solo compare to single coil
