As I am not as much experienced as the majority of that forum I thought I'll ask for some advice on updating my gear.
I am mainly interested in an amp that has a great clean channel and also Slayer's distortion.Being able to get MAB's sound would be awesome,but im not even dreaming about it as its also about the playing skills,haha.Currently,I own a huge fender (frontman 212) but I am not really satisfied with it.
The guitar I am looking for should have 24 or more frets,floyd,6-strings and the most important thing-it should be very easy to reach the last frets both under and over the neck.I love the signed armorflame I own now,but it really blocks some of my ideas sometimes.I've been thinking about razorbacks but I cant make up my choice.
Thanks in advance!

What about the Armorflame is blocking your ideas?? Do you just want a different bodyshape?
You could def upgrade that amp though. Are you looking for a combo amp or a head/cab setup?

Well,as big fan of playing over the neck and using over/under technique armorflame's shape is troublesome.I cant really reach anything above 17'th fret (especially bass strings,violins arent a big deal) So ye,all I really need is a different shape,cant complain about anything else.
I'd rather have a combo amp,heard alot of good stuff about marshall's,whats your opinion?

Marshalls are great but only if you get one of the tube amps, imo. The solid state amps are pretty much the same as everyone else. So as far as a combo, you can get a nice tube 1x12 or 2x12 but it's going to cost a lot!

Sounds like a V would be the best fit for you IMO if you can find a 24 fret one you like, and I would look into a combo like Maxxx said.

How about a Jackson Kelly or Warrior? Or an Ibanez Xyphos?

Get a Marshall DSL combo and put a MXR Kerry King EQ pedal in the fx-loop. And also a T-Rex MAB Overdrive in front of the amp.    The DSL has a good clean sound and with those pedals you'll be able to get very close to both Slayer and MAB. You could also use the MAB pedal as a boost when getting the slayer sound, since the DSL might not be tight enough and have enough distortion naturally, so you can push it with the overdrive if the EQ pedal is not enough ;D |
