+1!!! Head to a Mom and Pop shop near you, if there are any left. (That's right. Run, don't walk.) Try out a few. Les Pauls, SGs, Firebirds, ES-anything! Gibson makes some guitars that feel as perfect as any can. As far as sounding muddy, spend some time tweaking an amp you're real comfortable with, at least a tone control, if not a TMB circuit, and try to find something you like. As with all things, you may never click with it, but you won't know without the right kind of exposure and experimentation.
