To the OP heres what you really need to do... Buy a guitar and buy and amp... and go play... dont stop to read forums... dont worry about gear.. dont worry what your favorite guitarist is using just play. Through practice you will learn if your buying choices were right for you or not. No one here can tell you for certain they can only offer their opinions bases on their expierence but everyone is different. So until you've played your eyeballs out and your next post is "Guys the frets are notched and worn flat on my guitar what do I do" just go freaking play.
