nice looking guitar, but I dont care for the pickups..

You going to keep it stock or do some modding?

Congrats! How're you liking the pups?

Make that a green figured top, replace the EMG lookin things with Dimarzios or Duncans and make it prestige and that'd be how I'd want an Ibanez custom shop jobbie done. Maybe put a piezo in the bridge too

As it is though, I'dve probably opted for that over my RG321 and eventually stuck in some real EMGs.

the pups are okay, i might keep it stock for a while, then maybe just get some real EMG's.

i've seen a few different models along these lines (must have come out from summer NAMM?) and was wondering if they are Korean or Chinese?
BTW - sweet top and nice looking neck! how is the neck? does it feel like a good Ibanez neck?
congrats!

Indonesian...guitar center exclusive models. I have seen a few 4EXs with an edge III around gc as well.

To the OP...maybe its just the pics but the neck looks dry and screaming for some oil.

yeah that pic was taken the day i got it....and my fret doctor came in a few days later ...the neck is now nice and more darker.

i've seen these on other sites - not just MF. MF might be exclusive on that color though. i really wonder about the quality of woods being indonesian - the electronics can be changed but the woods are soooo important. i have seen a few different models and i dig the trans blk versions but i think i might end up with an RGT42dxfx (fixed bridge, neck-thru). congrats though!
