reliable guitar?

ive learnt my lesson.

no such thing as a reliable guitar. the most reliable one is a les paul. even then, things happen (hey its life). so nowadays not only i have a bunch of effects to lug around, i bring a backup guitar with me to gigs too.

hi Julian2103,
i play for church too, besides playing outside. what guitars do you currently own? and whats your playing style? playing in church, i would prefer a versatile guitar, one you can get many tones out of. especially with hillsongs, planeshakers and whatnot having a more modern guitar rock tone in the faster songs, but slower songs do require a more subtle selection.

ltds look nice and impressive for people who want that rock image (nice guitar finishing too) but the wood, hardware and construction isnt one i would recommend esp with 3k to spend

head over to PRSguitars.com

the only ones within your budget is the SE series (but not all though, some are over 3k)

well its been said that PRS is a working musicians guitar. plays well and is versatile. but then again, i'm biased. also, almost every recording has a les paul in it, used especially in rock albums for layering guitar tracks. even bands who are endorsing other brands would have a les paul for rock album guitar tracking (apart from the guitars they are endorsing).

prs custom 24 are usually not really beaten up, unlike strats or les pauls. isnt 3k a little low? especially here in malaysia.
