Default Do you think it was worth it?

Just pawned my guitars today.
Shecter omen6 and a BC rich.
Got $200 for the Omen and $350 for the BC.
Worth it or not?

I don't know about the Shecter. I'm guessing it's an off brand.
But 350 for a lame ass BC Rich is pretty nice.
How much you buyu them for in the first place?

Paid 270 for the schecter and 600 for the warlock.

Yeah that was worth it then. Buy a Mexican Strat if you want a good guitar with a real good price and brand name. The American Strats are like 4x as much and they play just as good..
But BC Rich's.. or "Biches" as I call them, are just cheap made guitars for goth sellouts.

Ibanez are nice....I never played an ESP. I suppose they are good though.

I wanna get a Jackson. I have to find a left handed one because everytime I reverse the nut on a right handed one the 17th and 19th frets get effed up and can't bend or even be plucked without sounding gay...

Well, B.C. Rich makes really crappy guitars, so good call. Btw, I saw Warlocks on the web going for 350 New.

Anyway, go for an Ibanez. They are light, have moderately priced models, and are good quality.

Jursey, Gibsons (At Least the Les-Pauls) are pathetically heavy compared to many guitars.

Too bad Gibsons are pretty much the best guitars ever.

that's not entirely true .. The fender Stratocaster is a more versatile guitar than a Gibson Les Paul. My preference for Gibsons are SGs and not Les pauls, partly because of weight. And Gibson can make ****ty guitars too. They have a range of models, just like fender.

Ibanez has always made better effects than guitars, them and Roland pedals I've stomped on for years and they are still going strong.

I can't remember the company that Leo Fender did on the side.. They are very high quality, as well as older models Music Man, and the higher end guitars like the one Santana use (ugh, forgot the company name again)

I am a vintage freak. newer guitars have different feels and i just don't like that, and usually the quality of the wood is not as good anymore, as well as the electronics wiring and insides just suck balls. They take a lot of work to fix, and just feel like pieces of ****.

But for pure pwnage factor, a Gretsch hollow body is the king of cool. Those things are pretty massive factories of sound with a price tag that makes many mortals cry.

Gibsons and Fenders are THE best. Ibanez is a japense brand, i don't like the quality of them. ESP's are good quality guitars. PRS's are just cheap rip off's. Oh and smitty if you really want to invest in a good guitar go for a Gibson Les Paul Supreme, like the ones Matt Heafy from Trivium plays.
