What should i get for xmas???

my parents don't know what to get me for xmas and its wendesday already, so they basically said here pick something out anything from guitar center for $200-$350.

only problem is, what should i get?? i already have gibson sg with a fender princeton chorus amp. i have a martin 000-15 that i got last year

the only thing ive been seriously considering recently is acoustic-electric setups but i havent been able to decide whether i should buy a pickup for my martin or buy a seperate acoustic-electric guitar. i also have to remmeber tho that i don't want to bring any of the guitars i have right now to college next year and that i wana get something fairly cheap to play there.

either way if i go the acoustic-electric route, will it sound decent on my fender princeton chorus (which is meant for electrics and is pretty old)? or do i need a whole new acoustic amp?

help me pick somethign out! thanks! :lol:

ok thanks, atleast it won't sound terrible and i can always buy an acoustic amp later

now the real tough choice, whats a good acoustic-electric for 200-400?

It's really not that much. I know where this is heading. SO i'm not going to take it there.

But yesh. Try out a uhmm---what about a bunch of things that you always need but never have? A bunch of strings, tons of accesories, maybe a pedal, couple packs of picks, a new cable or two, DI box, etc etc.

thanks for all the help,

i decided to not go with getting a new guitar b.c there wasnt enough time to look into it, but i am gonna get one sometime soon

instead i went with the listener supported dvd, the led zep dvd.. i forget which one but its 5 or 6 hours of their concert stuff, a bunch of strings would actaully be a real good idea b.c i go through strings like crazy haha
