first check out guitargeek.com. they have these neato diagrams of famous players' rigs.
guitar: a solid body with at least one humbucker, preferably active, for lots of gain. something slick like a Charvel/Jackson, Carvin or Ibanez RG with a wide, flat neck and lots of frets (24). you probably want a locking tremolo, too, for all that dive bombing and such. buy it used, but make sure the whammy is in good shape. make sure it looks cool. $200
amp: prolly marshall, although i'm not sure about this dept., since i don't play metal and don't care for the Marshall sound anyway. maybe a Peavey 5150. buy it used. $300
effects: line 6 Pod would be good. analog or digital distortion? prolly digital for that kind of music: the ol' Boss Distortion should do the trick. for analog: RAT, Big Muff, Ibanez Tube Screamer. definitely a compressor. maybe an EQ. delays are good, too. other toys: ring modulator, noise gate, phaser/flanger, pitch shifter/harmonizer. $100
good luck and have fun!

- Troyy0
I mean, are you just using one string?
- jimmyjames0
try ebay, might be your best bet with a $600 budget
- matt250
marshall amps rock
guitar looks nice but wouldn't surprise me if it was more than $450
In guitars it is either low or high. there isn't much of a middle ground price wise. If you are going to go low, I would buy an Epiphone (Gibson JR)
