Ah... the year-end City Music sale is here again, some stuff here for your considerations...Echotone: If you're looking for an affordable semi, the Hamer Echotone should be on your list. It's a well-built guitar, nothing boutique grade though, but something very pleasant. Cleans are great from this guitar, especially some from the neck humbucker & the overdrive tones just sound very acceptable. For the discerning tone mongers, the Echotone sounds a little different as it sports a maple neck, not a mahogany piece like some others.
Sale: $466
Vector: OK, so the v-outline here might prove to be the attractive esthetic but that's besides the point. We should all prioritize tone & playability when it comes to an instrument selection which the Hamer Vector has aplenty- but the default humbuckers here are aimed at overdrive frenzies rather than squeaky clean moments. Be reminded though, of how practical all things of this contour would be when played sitting down. The alder (body) & maple (neck) combo also ensures inherent clarity.Sale: $417

tone sucks for this one... my 2 cents

usually, guitars are plugged into practice-grade amps for pre-SALE demo. be sure to give it a subsequent listening through another amp.
