Generic Ibanez Pickups
Low TRS Trem System

Keep saving for a 550.

It has the edge trem system.

Serial number and/or picture would be helpful. In the early 90s, some of the 450/470 models were made with the edge trem, later ones had the TRS. They had V1, S1, and V2 humbuckers, which aren't bad for stock Pickups. I wouldn't pay more than 200EUR for the edge version, or more than 100 for the TRS version. If it costs more, try getting a used RG5XX.

Oh, and limited?? It isn't in production anymore, that's why it's limited.

Definatly go 4 a 550. tiny step up in price, but a big step up in quality, especially the edge trem.

yeah, keep saving and go for the 550. It's a better guitar and it'll keep you happy for many, many years.
