Answers:
1) correct me if i'm wrong, but as far as i know, the les paul standard is a bit brighter/crisper tonewise (hindi mas bell like a.. mas matinis lang siguro ng konti?) dahil sa maple cap niya.. as for the custom, mas dark/warm/organic yung tunog dahil sa pure mahogany siya.

2) ok din ang rj lp's based sa reviews dito sa philmusic. try mo na lng muna para sure ka :) marami din naman nagbebenta ng japanese copies, so subukan mo rin yun. baka okay din :)

3) kung magtatabi ka ng budget... 7k - 25k ang itabi mo. laki ng range no? hehe. well.. may mga nagbebenta kasi ng second hand RJ's, like si floyd nikita.. 7k ata yun.. then.. meron mga lumalabas na greco na nasa 12k-20k... then may mga burny or tokai na nasa 20-25k ang presyo.. sometimes higher pa :)

suggestion:
dun ka tumingin sa mga bandang 20-25k... hehe. surebol hindi mo na papakawalan yun dahil kalibreng "mint collection" or "super grade" or whatever pa ang tawag nila, ang mga models na yun. tapos pag binenta mo, ganun pa rin presyo. think about it. goodluck!  :wink:

ow.. thanks!!

pero balak ko kasi sana, nasa 10k lang.. so i was thinking ung RJ.. nakita ko goldtop nya, white pine daw ung wood.. :? ano sound nun? and is it heavy like an LP?

i have an ibby 550, basswood cya, crystal scalarize... how does the sound ng LP compare dun sa ibby?

kung mag-imported LP naman ako, gsto ko sana greco, aria and the likes.. mdyo mahal nga lang.. can RJ be compared to imported LPs? eye-ing on the RJ goldtop..

thanks!!!

Answers:
1) pine wood: hindi ko alam pare kung pano tumunog yan. hindi ko alam kung malapit siya sa tone ng mahogany (or mahogany with maple cap)

2) ibby 550: ano pickups mo muna? meron akong ibanez rg 7420 dati... na naka seymour duncan invader 7... hmmm.. ganito na lang.. nung nagkaron ako ng gibson les paul, ang nipis na sobra ng ibanez. tapos ngayon, may epiphone lp ako, manipis pa rin ang ibanez tonewise. pero ako lang yan. siguro mukhang mas manipis ang tunog dahil sa kahoy. ang les paul kasi, ma-mid yung tone. yung ibanez, lalo na yung basswood, balanse lang yung pag handle nyan sa mga frequencies eh.. so baka dahil dun? dami factors bro...

3) ang rj, syempre, pwede mo ikumpara sa mga mas mahal sa kanyang mga brand.. wala naman kaso yun eh.. lahat ng mga gitara, kahit anong brand pa yan, may sasablay at may kikinang. hehe. naks. ang poetic nun a. HAhahahaha :D anyway.. try ka muna pare.. try ka ng rj.. kahit lahat ng rj lp sa store nila, itry mo.. then.. kung may kaibigan ka, or may EB man ang guitar central, punta ka dun, at makitry ka ng mga mij lp's... check ka ng greco at aria pro.. yan kasi ang madalas na binebenta dito eh.. so mas accessible for you.. yun lang :)

ah.. so mas bibigat ung sound?? hmm.. nkaka-gas na a..
erhm, nagtingin tingin ako sa net regarding pine wood.. may iilan lang ako nakita gumagamit.. sbi nla, maganda "raw" tonality.. yet to test pa ako.. i'll be trying my friend's LP studio sa satrday.. hahaha...
another reason rn kasi why i want to acquire an LP, kasi non-fspaced (something new para sakin) and fixed bridge, no need for trem locknuts. haha

ibby ko? stock pups lang e.. ung v7 and v8, pero scalarized.. lumakas ung output for some unknown reasons.. and mdyo glassy na.. hehe



at good luck na rin baka sungitan ka ng tindero or tindera dun  :lol:

masusungit ba mga tao dun? haha.. gsto ko sana ma-try sa galleria, un ung pnakamalapit sakin e.. hehe



anong year ng ibanez RG550 mo? pwede patingin ng pic?  :-)

uhmm.. 2002 ata e.. not the actual pic.. pero ung silver ata akin..

OO, masungit.

Suggestion ko, bumili ka na lang ng used LP sa Classifieds.

@master rigil

hehe nagbabalik ka na rin plang bumili ng delay.. ako rin ^_^

kaya lng pinag pipilian ko naman is ung Boss DD3 or Digitech Digidelay..

===========

mga pedal guru ano ba mas ok sa 2 na yan??.. kasi ung digitech digidelay may modes sya ng DD-6.. pero bakit ang dami mas gumagamit ng DD3?

Teka, wala bang FAQ or thread about INSTRUMENT CABLES? George L, neutrik, etc.?  :? - hanap kasi ako ng magandang patch cables dito - or kung wala, custom ba is better? Where can I get some? Yun na lang ang iniisip ko na pwede pa pag gastusan, very important din na element siya in your overall tone diba?

Cheers!
