Best Guitar to play Children of Bodom music?

Guitars aren't designed for specific bands BTW :lol:

If you get a guitar that you think has a nice feel to it, then you will automatically play anything better regardless of what kind of music it is. My advice to you is to try out a whole fuckload of guitars and then make your decision based on that knowledge.
 
Not so stupid as they said!
Fucking right! Guitars are not designed for a special band indeed, But did you ever seen anyone play CoB with a fender?

ESP Alexi SIG or Jackson V!
 
to answer seriously , it doesnt matter on the guitar, but one with 24 frets and quite low action is useful.
 
what do you guys think? i'm thinking of getting a strat...

Ok, I don't play guitar... but just for the sound, I wouldn't say to use a Stratocaster, or a Fender anyway, to play CoB's music... because this guitar has a sound which is too refined, in my opinion.
I have no idea if you know that old band called Dire Straits (well, they're not metal at all but I love them)...
The leader of this band, Mark Knopfler, used (at least for their former albums) a Fender Stratocaster, a great guitar that characterized their music with a lot of elegance, and right cause of that guitar's sound... but it seems too clean and sensible for metal music, to me. :)
