Alright, I've already got three guitars, but I want to find a nicer quality hard body than what I have. (I've got a Jackson WRXT Warrior, a Slammer *Hamer's bastard offspring*, and an acoustic none of you'd ever heard about).

My price range is up to $1,000... or a little more if y'all know a guitar that's great that's just a tad more. I play your basic hard rock (Aerosmith, AC/DC, Poison... I know they're all different). Really, I just want a guitar that'll play smoothly, have a nice feel to it, not too big, and I'd prefer it be manufactured by a company that has other good guitars... since I tend to stick with companies. I also don't really want an SG or Les Paul because EVERYONE plays those. I want something a bit different, since I DO play stage.

I know I'm being picky... but I want the best guitar I can get. Please help a rocker out.

Also, what would be a good amp to pair with a Jackson? I like Marshalls, but is there an amp that balances out with the Jacksons better?

There's tons of newer companies out there with some great guitars. Dean is one of them.
