HEY!! There's absolutely nothing wrong with Ibanezes, trendkillah. I have one, and, compared to Gibson Explorers and Flying V's, if I was spending the money, I'd prefer an Ibanez RG anyday. Personally, I like Ibanez. You get a great guitar, and it doesn't leave a crater in your wallet. But that's just my free advice, metalisbest. Take it or leave it.
