well the guitar I was pretty undecided on, I'll definately check out Schector, but as for an amp, if I'm gonna blow some money into a new amp I'm gonna go all out. 15 watts isn't going to cut it for me. I have a multi-effects pedal with all the effects of that amp you told me about. I wanna go full blown marshall tube amp. yeah that should be good as soon as I can afford it.
