Depends on what you wanna do, but strats are tight for it. It's really more about playing than anything else. Tinsel Teeth, Pre, Aids Wolf, Arab on Radar, Pink and Brown, and Melt Banana all do different things and have different guitars, but it's all in the genre. Aluminums are what I'm trying to get for it though. Those EGCs w/P90s sound stellar.

I would think it would be more about the pickups than the guitar. Hotter pickups mean more noise, yes?

Sometimes; old harmony archtops though have low output pickups but, feedback if you look at them sternly.

Something light that you can beat up, and throw around and just abuse in countless other manners. Unless you're adventurous, and wanna swing around a huge fucking guitar.

For what it's worth, the new melody maker SG is fucking teensy, and has nothing to fuck up. One bridge humbucker, one volume.

Played a nice green epiphone one today that was $150. I feel like I could get it for $100.
