JEM333 and PGM3 on Ibanez 2005 catalog (for the 3rd world I think) (pics)

This are scans of the 2005 Ibanez catalog (Not the "oficial one") it only includes models of the Gio line and the JEM333 and PGM3 models, I can scan the rest of the catalog if you want. It´s original, the oficial importer of Argentina send it to me, I work in a guitar shop.

Excuse me for my english! :-)

I got this catalog (look at my location

)They're trying to push the sales of those guitar alongside the Gio I think

I think it´s only available in the countries where Ibanez sell "low end" guitars.

Yeah like my country, there are tons of these gios and jem 333 and it used to swarm with Pgm3

It´s a pity that the JEM333 has the ILT1 tremolo and the GRG370 has the Edge III, I think the last one it´s better and could help the JEM333 to be a more desirable model.

Yes it's true, it's kinda silly actually and I hate the ILT1 trem, they should include the edge3 into the jem actually, it might help the sales of it

I have the 2005 US catalog and those aren't in there, nice to see them though, are they doing great on selling them over there? I also see that the Lo-Trs is still the bridge.

No, the actual bridges are the ILT1, Edge III, FAT10 and full tone (fixed) I think that the Lo Trs is discontinued. The JEM333 is not a High end guitar for shure but it´s not ugly and the people buy it nowadays, more than a RG350, or a RG320 despite the tremolo.

Cool. Yeah, out of all my axes, my S 7420 is equipped with the Lo-Trs, the rest Lo Pro Edge which I like better. I never cared for the Lo-Trs for the longest time but it is now growing on me.

Is the PGM3 as bad as the JEM555 or worse than the JEM333?
It kinda looks nice, LOOKS nice...
anyone ever try one?

I think it looks funny without a maple fretboard

I'm temtped to get a Jem333 for modding the crap out of. Are they really that bad? Same goes for the bluw PGM3 I guess.

What level are they on, RG3**? or even worse?

I seriously don't feel they're are bad except for the trem and the pups,if you're gonna mod the jem 333 change the pups and the trem and that's it , the Rg3** gets my vote, better trem and pups, I think the Inf3 and 4 that the Rg 3** is equipped are much better than the Inf1 and 2
