    I played the epiphone Prophecy with 81/85 EMGs for over a year now but now the Bridge Pickup doesnt Produce any Sound anymore (it might bei the Switch thats broken)
    Anyway I can get the Money back, 600€ and I Wonder what you would suggest me instead. I don’t want to miss the EMGs because I Love playing Bullet for my Valentine songs. So I might buy the Same one as Well. Still I’m curious what you would buy with that Money

    I just checked my wishlist on Thomann and I see some Gretsch models, D’angelico, Jackson, Gibson(weiddly enough there is a Firebird for only €350), Ibanez and Chapman in there for about €600. So I’d probably buy one of those.
    I think out of all the guitars of about €600 in my wishlist this is the only one with emgs https://m.thomann.de/nl/jackson_marty_friedman_mf_1_x_serie.htm

    @dan the set would almost cost around 200 Euro so what’s left might not be enough to get a great quality guitar. At least chances are lower than for 600. Also installing active pickups is in no way easy if the model did not already have actives..
    @Ed, I am personally not a fan of the look of the PRS guitars but checked anyway, it’s around 1.000 Euro haha
