The ESP Guitar Company

Keep saving! A new guitar will be worth it. The 10-series are really designed for beginners, and if you think you're ready to move up, a new guitar and amp is definitely the best option.

How much do you have already saved up/how much are you saving up to?

Yeah, it's not my first guitar, but it is one of my favorites out of the ones that I have had. It plays about as good, but the sound of my little amp isn't sufficient. I don't really have money saved up but am trying to sell some items to get the stuff that I mentioned and also for a few other things like software, so have to stay on the cheap.

As for the original question, what I mean is, is it worth it to just upgrade the pickups if I think that it plays as good as other guitars that I have owned in the past?

EMGs in a F-10 isn't worth the money imo... save for another guitar.

wooooahhhhhhh.............keep your comics!!!!!!!!!!

If you think it plays good but you want a better sound, I would suggest upgrading your amp

I like the little amp that I have, I am more looking for suggestions on multi-effects or a distortion pedal that will give me a variety of sounds to choose from.

I was looking at the T.C Electronic Nova Drive and that seems good, I like how it is able to save different presets but it's expensive for me. I'm not a big fan of large floor unit multi-effects units and wouldn't use most of the effects other than maybe compression and chorus, but if there are any rack mount or desktop versions that aren't too expensive and has good distortions to choose from, then I might be interested.

Also, I would sell my comics but I haven't found any buyers yet for these other than two issues of She-Hulk for $9.00 and Infinity Gauntlet #1 and 2 for $5.00 that sold on ebay out of all the others that I had listed. I have sold a bunch on ebay before, so I don't know what the problem is.
