Which High End Ibanez?

[GuitarEvan07]

Aight guys, I have an RG3670e VSL Prestige now, and selling it so I can get a higher end prestige. I think maximum I would spend New would be 1300(USD). What do you suggest?
I love locking tremolo's but my favorite guitarist is paul gilbert and his signature model is hardtail.:-( still considering it though. But I play mostly paul gilbert, joe satriani, steve vai, jason becker, malmsteen, so I love the tremolos as well.

Which ever you get purchace a Tremol-No to go along with it.

I just got a JEM7vwh and its a really nice guitar. The thing is pretty versitile, and I was suprised how nice it sounds clean. Smooth distorted tones as well, really nice guitar.

The Neck-Thru Ash body is the RGT220A-NTF.

I ain't young... though my heart feels like it's 12! haha actually... I just went to the ibanez site... the RG I played was in a darker "chocolate" brown neck-through... not a natural finish

That would be the Mahogany body, 5 piece Wizard maple/wenge thru-neck, jumbo frets, rosewood fretboard, rosewood headstock overlay, Dimarzio IBZ neck and bridge pickups, in SOL [Stained Oil]. Very Nice looking guitar. The other one is the RGT320QRBB. AAA quilted maple top, mahogany body, jumbo frets on a rosewood board, dot inlays, Dimarzio IBZ pickups, matching quilt maple headstock, available RBB [Royal Brown Burst] Dont really like the looks of that one thou

I stand corrected. Where did you see it btw cause I like it =)

[reguv760]

SA... it was next to a 2228 (2nd sighted) and a PGM301 (never came across any PGM's til today)... seems like they've been carrying more Prestige or higher Ibby's than GC. Not sure if the 20061 is similar to your 220A but the neck feels like it's made from the same wood as the body with 2 wenges and it was stained.
Like I stated, the price I saw was exactly at the original poster's price. After seeing it's original list price... i think it's a bargain. I like the tone coming out of it... I'd get it if i had that kind of cash... but I have to consider buying presents for people this time of year ya know...

the 20061 is basically a barbequed 220A. Same materials and construction, but a flame grilled finish.
