$200 is a good price for that guitar, but even the rg2xx-3xx are better guitars for the same money. an aanj and 24
fret neck would steer me into the rg range with a similar trem and pickup configuration. if you are indeed the snob you say you are, hold off and save your pennies for a japanese rg. for $300-500 will get you most any japanese rg5xx. it all depends on how rare and beat up you're looking at. better quality and craftsmanship all around. now, for $150 for that ex350. i'd get it as a beater, but for $200, i'd pass. amazing what $50 will seperate!
