Guitar Part Rosewood
What guitar should I get?
I am the lead guitarist in an alternative rock band, most of my parts are on the top strings so it needs to sound good with high treble, and I frequently switch between clean and distorted. I need a tremolo system, I would prefer a maple or ebony fretboard over a rosewood and I think I want a humbucker pickup. I would prefer to not get a Fender Strat because they are a bit conventional and I would prefer something a little more individual. I have a fairly high budget so the sky is pretty much the limit, but I'm not particularly knowledgeable about brands and models.
Paul Reed Smith makes some beautiful guitars with ebony fretboards and humbuckers that sound great for everything from clean jazz to crunchy rock. They've got really supple, easy-to-play necks, as well, and the bodies are nicely contoured so they're amazingly comfortable to play. The PRS players I know (including my brother) have become more than devoted to that brand and tend to find other guitars shoddy by comparison. I'm a Telecaster fan, but when my brother lets me play his PRS (under supervision, since he treats his guitar like a newborn baby), I'm pretty blown away by how beautifully it plays and sounds. And many of the models have gorgeous flamed tops, so they're very distinctive looking.
I'll post a few links to guitars worth considering so you can read the reviews and see that I'm not exaggerating.
