js-1000 big trouble


Right, so a couple of weeks ago I spend a small fortune on a new JS-1000. Terrific guitar, sounds wild but....
Ibanez should be kicked in the butt for their below crap factory setup. I've been working on it day after day, and I can't get it right. Strings to low, buzz. To high, plays crap. Intonation is way off. Edge is standing up, but the spring screws can't go any further into the body. I can't get the dammed thing tuned..... It's hopeless.
When I first got it, the edge layed way back in to the body, I couldn't pull up.
I'm beyond fustrated with this, if I can't get it right, it goes back, and it's exit Ibanez for me. I want to play, not spend the first year setting it up.
It would be a big shame, the pu's sounds great and the neck feels awesome. But it still is horrably out of tune.
Now I need to spend more money to get a pro to set it up. I hate this.
Sorry for my rant here, but I'm really p'd off right now.
Is this normal Ibanez practice?
Thnx.
