For metal type music, you can't go wrong with an Ibanez, IMO. I've always like the way they play, and they've got a good chunky metal sound, especially with humbuckers and a good quality distortion pedal or good amp distortion.
I never dug Jackson or BC Rich. BC = too much show and not enough go, IMO. (hah, that rhymes.)
Of course, I personally dig Strats... American Strats. Mmmmmm. There's nothing like it IMO, but that's because I play more blues/rock/alternative and and I just really like the sound. I'm debating right now between a fat strat (i.e. with a humbucker) or a standard American Strat (three single pickups.)
Les Pauls are okay, but I don't think I'd ever actually buy one simply because I think the strats sound better for how and what I play. Plus, they're heavy as all hell! That's not a huge deal, but they start to dig in after a while.
