Posted by Clay on Mon, 01/31/2005 - 19:02.

Im thinking of getting a new amp and i was looking to spend around $600. I like combos but dont like them with the built in effects. I was wondering if any of you guys could recomend a quality guitar amp in my price range.

appraisal

Posted by guy lee on Mon, 01/31/2005 - 19:42.

I have a 1978 les paul custom & case. Would like to know how much it is worth.

Re: appraisal

Posted by Lee on Mon, 01/31/2005 - 22:16.

private sale you should get between £2,500- $3,000. depending on condition and orginality, having all the original parts is paramount, if you have a repaired headstock then you can probably halve it. white ones tend to be popular too.

amplifiers/les paul copies

Posted by Kevin on Tue, 02/01/2005 - 01:48.

I'm getting back into guitar and want to buy a les paul copy that is well-made but not overly expensive, between 250-400. I've heard about agile and explored their site. It seems as though they have put some effort into their guitars and I've read some good reviews (I assume they aren't plants) Are they any good or is epiphone the best way to go? Also what about a not too expensive amp 100-200? Am I out of the ballpark on any/all of these demands?

tokai guitars, (korean) very good copies,
and peavey amps are good for the money.

I dont know about the guitar part of it but you may want to look at Behringer amps, depending on what size you want, you can get a good practice amp for the price range you are looking for. Try the online music stores.

We have a really good article here on GuitarSite.com that I thought you might like to know about:
