How do you like those 550's? I've always wanted one from around those years of production.

A natural Gibson LeGrand ( http://www.musiciansfriend.com/guitars/gibson-custom-le-grande-electric-guitar ) and  a Barney Jazzmaker Deluxe. ( http://www.barneyguitars.com/jazzmakerdeluxe.htm ).  I also have an 89 Guild D-50 (Pre Fender!)  and a Cervantes Crossover I. ( http://www.cervantesguitars.com/REVISED%20SITE/detalle%20hybrid%201.htm )  As if you couldn't tell, I'm a jazz guy, although about 30 years ago, I was a rocker. I've had 5 Les Pauls - 1 deluxe, 1 25/50th Anniversary, and 3 customs. Also had a fair share of 335's, BC Rich, and more than I care to remember. Damn those 70's! Lol.

I currently have a ESP LTD Viper, Ibanez GSA60, Jackson King V, and acoustic guitar.
I mostly use a Roland Micro amp for practice, but for shows I use Marshall Half-Stack.

looking to pick up a new guitar soon and I was looking to see if I could get some advice here
 
basically, my budget is $1,000
 
I was looking for some recommendations on a good ibanez RG, jackson, or fender strat of quality for my $

i have a left handed(cause i'm left handed obvious) Fender Stratocaster here that i play sometimes.i been playing more often though. i use to own an left handed ibanez gio with dimarzio evolution pick-ups. man did that guitar sound so damn good. too bad i decided to sell it in the past since i haven't played it long time. now that i'm back into it i kinda regret selling the ibanez. i really like the sound of my fender though too and i do love how smooth the neck is on the fender. makes sliding so silky smooth.

I also have an Ultrasound amp - mine is the DS4. Nice little amp. I was using it to mike a classical guitar with a Rode NT1-A microphone. Very accurate sound.

A friend of mine has the DS4. Great amp! The Pro250 is way more than I need, but it has that natural Ultrasound sound, I don't think Ultrasound can be beat for an acoustic amp except by an AER...(for 3X$)

I was using it when I was doing the Jobim bossa thing on a classical guitar. I have since switched back to archtops and the DS4 sounds good with an archtop too. Funny you mentioned AER though. My teacher gigs with one (when he isn't using his $3700 Walter Woods head that is!)  and I use it every week. I love the sound and think I will be getting one soon.

What do you guys think of the Bottlehead guitar amp? I've built a Crack but don't know what to make of this.

I'm not familiar with them. Looks kinda 50's retro. How does it sound? BTW - love that natural finish on the Strat!

Yeah, that is an unusual looking amp...I don't believe that I have ever seen or heard one of those...
