I'm getting money for my birthday on April 4 and I'm planning on spending it on a new acoustic. I'm going to be strumming, fingerpicking, and playing slide on this acoustic. I do not want to spend more than $500 and would prefer to pay between 3-4 hundred. Right now i'm considering some Yamaha's, Ibanez's, Seagulls, and a Taylor Big Baby in the 3-4 hundred range. The only guitar I've seen that could be head and shoulders above the rest is the Taylor 110. Does anyone have this guitar, has anyone played it? Is it worth 100-150 more than the other brands guitars I mentioned?

invader in ibanez
hey whats up this is my first post here. ok i have an ibanez rg320dxqm and i replaced the stock pickup in the bridge with an invader and its been giving me problems. i play through a crate bluevoodoo 120h with the bv 200 watt cab and its a really sharp sounding amp but with this new pickup i cant tell what notes im playing, its just unclear and really peircing, i usually drop tune to B and i cant hear the chords i play, its just like a wall of sound that causes ears to bleed ...i usually try and go for a full warm tone that still has a lot of bite, usually play downtuned heavy metal stuff ...soo basicly im just trying to figure out if maybe its my pickup or my amp, i cant seem to get the EQ right with the distortion and im quite close to chucking my guitar out the window... thanks for reading and i really would appreciate any help anyone can give me ......rock on!

Guitars on Ebay
I was looking at guitars on ebay and was wondering if anyone was bought a guitar on ebay. was it in good shape? I don't want to buy a $500 dollar guitar and then spend another $500 just to make it playable.

New Additions to the Family
Well, the family has expanded once again. Remember, I posted recently about the Parker Fly Deluxe? It's IN MY HANDS! My bro-in-law sold it to me at a ridiculous price, so I couldn't pass it up. The AIIP(n) is incredible! The Custom Custom is a bit bright, but usable. I really dig this axe.

Audio or Linear taper pots?
What's the difference, and what do you guys prefer? I'm going to be buying a few 500k pots in one or the other.

FS: THD 8ohm Hot Plate
I have a THD 8 ohm Hot Plate I'm trying to sell. It has only been used 4 times and is in great shape. I bought it because I was told that it would help with a volume problem. I mostly play smaller venues where volume is a concern. The Hot Plate did not help my problem. It did allow more tube saturation, hence more overdrive, at lower volumes but did not acheive my volume objective.

KTG 2075 2 x 100 Watt Power Amp
My friend has a Boss GT-6 and he's currently running it only into a lil' Peavey Rage 158. It's sound very unspectacular as you could imagine.
