Vai and Satriani are both pretty good, but Shawn Lane destroys all of them. IMO Kirk Hammett is pretty boring and not all that technically brilliant, almost all his solos are pentatonic, and he hides behind his wah and distortion a lot.

nthfinity: A Les Paul Standard is more in the $1700-$2000 range. And I agree with you on the Sratocaster, its very comfortable, playable and versatile; My #2 is an american standard strat. I just like the Ibanez more because its even more comfortable and infinitely more playable (You can set the action much lower and still get good tone). I've also found a solution to the Floyd Rose tone problem: Have you ever tried a fat finger? They really work.
