Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
For that type of music, I would personally get a Jackson and their are quite a few for sale on e-bay!.
I own an old '63 Gibson Les Paul and had purchases a second hand Jackson for $200!. Beautiful guitar and awesome fingerboard, low action!. It has 24 frets and active electonics!. It has a nice floyd rose on it so the intonation is always perfect esepcially on the Jackson!.

It even came with a hardshell case!.!.!.!.!.This guitar has a good resale value!.

Second choice is an Epiphone Les Paul !. The sad think on Gibson is that they have no whammy bar except the SG which is off-balanced at the neck!.

Good Luck !!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I persoanlly would go for an Epiphone or Ibanez!. For you and your taste in music Ibanez or a jackson for sure!. Maybe an Epiphone flying V for that grunge/hard rock/old skool metal love!. I'm a bass player so theres only so much I can do!.

STAY AWAY FROM: Fender, and BC rich!.

In that price range, the best thing to do is go to your local music store (Guitar Center or Sam Ash if you have one) and actually play the guitar!.
