A number of years ago i dabbled a bit with the guitar, i now want to get back into it. At a music shop near my work i have seen and fallen in love with a guitar. I would like to hear any thoughts and opinions on said guitar, and indeed, any advice on guitar buying in general. The guitar in question is a Peavey v-type ntb st (colour black). Many thanks, Lindsay.

Hey Lindsay Re: Peaveys - good guitars IMHO. My first guitar was a Peavey...I`d still have it, but someone said that five guitars was a bit excessive for someone who can`t play very well ;D Just go and have a tat about on it - if it feels right, then part with the cash. If its new (and not second hand) there shouldn`t be anything wrong with it. Hope this helps

Hey Nick, went and had a play about with it to-day, very cool guitar. The action is nice and low,great for all that fast riffing and lead work (if only i was good enough ;D).The guy in the shop also played it, F**K was he good.Any way, going to have a look a a few more before i decide, thanks for the advice, cheers, Lindsay
