Alright. I have decided to upgrade from shitty guitars and amps and no effects to a good guitar and amp and some effects. I need some advice from owners of the product, past or present to tell me how they preform, durability, quality, etc. Alright. So, so the stuff.

Guitar:
Ibanez RG350EX

Amp(I really need help on this one. I want a good amp but I'm a little tight on cash. Help?):
fender Super Champ XD Combo Amp

OR

Ibanez MIMX30

OR

Ibanez MIMX65

Pedals(Want.):
Boss Ds-1 Distortion pedal(I would like to have it but the Fender XD Superchamp has a distortion setting on it.) Ibanez Weeping Demon Wah
ts9 tube screamer



I would also like some suggestions for future pedals. I am specifically looking for Whammy, Wah-Wah, Repeat, and and general effects pedal.
I also want to find out more about recording equipment. I am completely in the dark on that subject, and i would like to try to keep some of the songs I write.

Can't help you with amps... but for wah's I would recomend Ibanez's weeping demon (love that pedal), and its only $90- $100. Boss probably has some good echo pedals for you, if you haven't already checked.

Amps? Well if you on a budget, go with combos. I'd say either a Mesa Express 5:50, a Vox AC30, or a Bogner Alchemist. They're good amps for practicing and gigging until you get enough to get a high wattage head and cabinets.

When it comes to amp's and budgets, the one I see mentioned the most is the Roland 15W cube.

oh, I forgot that one. I should've also said the AC15 instead of the AC30.
