Can anybody recommend a decent guitar with fixed bridge? My budget would be roughly £500 max. I used to play mostly metal, but I'm now looking for something more versatile, possibly with a good clean. I just can't deal with tremolos and Floyd roses anymore

Edit: thanks everybody for all the recommendations, I'll soon be going to the store to try a few :)

Sg is a kind of metal classic and you can find the shape from many manufacturers. Single cuts, too, if you can tolerate them.

Ibanez has lots of models, though depending on how demanding you are, definitely budget for pickup change. 500 is close to used Prestige prices, even.

A little off field would be a Revstar.

And there's always Jackson.
