the top one
I say EC-1000. However, my true vote would be for an american made fender strat. Why? because I am classy like that.
(speaking of, does anyone want to buy a left handed fender strat?)

Geeeee, I wonder what my votes gonna be.
Jackson and Gibson both sued the crap out of ESP in the mid 90's and won. As a result their ESP(Jap made artist series guitars)/LTD(made in Indonesia and Korea) flagship guitars (Les Paul/Ecllipse, SG/Viper, Explorer/Exp) all had to be redesigned to what they are today. Personally, I like the ESP look over the Gibsons (except the Explorer. I hate the Exp).
I would have done the same thing. I really like the Ec's. I like the LTD Truckster, but James' other artist series axe's are soooo much better. I'm holding out for a JH-1 or JH-2 when I can actually afford to buy one. Last 1 I saw on eBay went for 4 grand. Haven;t seen a 2 on in a while, and I've yet to see a 3 or a Grynch.
......my future wife is going to hate me. Lol.

I started playing guitar earlier this year myself. I have Guitar Hero I and II and decided to give the real thing a try! I've not played GH since I got my Jay Turser strat-copy guitar.
I personally love the black archtop there - the last one. SG's don't do anything for me.
And if you buy from a shop they can set it up for you - buying online (as I did) you get the guitar from a box and have to take it in to a shop to have it set up anyway, so whatever money you save online gets spent at a guitar shop, usually anyway. Plus, you can try them out at a guitar shop.
I actually want to get a LP style gee-tar here soon, in the under$300 range, though, so it'll probably be another Jay Turser or a used Epiphone prolly.
Before I die, I want a Dimebag Darrell model. Wicked sick. Hey, and what about the Gibson Corvus? [link=hyperlink url]http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3865/1712/1600/gibsoncorvusIII.1.jpg[/link]

A Truckster is not a stage guitar. You buy an artist series for the sake of having one, not to play on stage. You don;t want to put a guitar like that through the regular wear and tear of gigs.
