[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 2557966, member: 2189"] That's the route to take (multi guitars). My daughter who is the guitarist in the family now has 8 guitars which are Les Paul Standard, 4 ESP one being an M-1000 and her latest addition from about a month ago is a Gretsch White Penguin that sounds incredible. The sustain is just unreal. The 7 string is also a great option as my daughter considered that at one time (a John Petrucci/Brian Haner Jr. aka Syn Gates phase) plus she was friends with 7 string guitarist [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zoVeo1_i_A'][COLOR=#ff0000][B]Toshi Iseda[/B][/COLOR][/URL] but decided to stick with 6 when all said and done.
