It REALLY depends on the player I can not stress enough on how the playinf style effects what kind of guitar people like.
I personally play a Schecter just because it was the best guitar I could find in my price range

but I mean person 1's ideal guitar could be a $2000 ibanez steve vai custom
and person 2's ideal guitar could be a $90 squire from costco

if you want to progress you have to step outside of what you normally play or listen to, my personal advice is to start learning some beatles songs, i'm talking like anything from rubber soul through let it be. every time you learn one of those songs you'll learn another chord and another chord change, it's all good stuff, also i'd start looking at some jazz, that's where the real meat is if you want to become a quality player, if you listen to a jazz guy play rock it's like a walk in the park for them, but if you ask a rock guy to play jazz his head will explode, shows you something right there.

sweet thanks I like jazz and my dad is a HUGE beatles fan like he has every single record the EVER put out o_O lol

ok its not a very popular band but its an awesome song here it is
