I would suggest looking at the line6 variax I bought one a couple of
years ago and will never get rid of it. If you've never heard of it
here is a short description 28 guitars in one from tele's to banjo for
jazz it has es-175 that I use alot. investigate for yourself if you
want an all around instrument.
