Ibanez

Hey everyone. Looking for an Ibanez with a floyd rose and 2 humbuckers. I am interested in good quality and sound so I figure 500 bucks should get me there. I listen to alot of Satch and vai among other popular bands, Metallica ect. Any hepl would be greatly appreciated.

get one of the RG's that are in your price range. as far as i know theyre all pretty much the same

Yep, an RG or an S series would definitely be the best choice for you.

Afro

i would save more until u can get a prestige rg or s series, much higher quality and just overall better. i have one and its get for shred cause of the low action and pickups

yeah unless you NEED one right away id save a little more

I have a Js1000 and an RG, use the RG a lot more than the satriani... depends what feels right.....

Oh I'm sure EMB could recommend where to shove a good Ibanez lol. Jokin' buddy. I liked the RG370 personally. I think it's either really white or black idk. (Note - I wasn't being racist guys, just describing the finish lol]. For you though, I'd HIGHLY consider getting something without a Floyd. Take it from a guy who has to put up with every nagging detail of one. They're great and all, but a LOT of work to keep tip-top specs compared to a guitar with no trem, or even a standard Strat style trem.

Ozz

haha yeah Floyds and most trems are a bich to maintain but if you can't do without divebombs and other great ear candy then just get a fixed bridge, especially if you downtune your guitar.

Yeah but Ibanez (RG)is the standard metal guitar for your money these days, I'm not a fan but they're good guitars.

They're kind of like Mustangs, everyone's got one and they're cheap, but they get the job done.

Haha. I find that interesting League. Especially since I prefer Chargers lol.

haha I would definetely prefer a Charger but my favorite has always been the Camaro.

They're awsome too man. I just grew up watching the Dukes Of Hazzard so Chargers were kind of ingrained in me lol.

Chevelle! haha, not the band the car.
I personally like the RG that I played, it was the one with the reversed headstock, no idea what model as I just grabbed it because I needed to play through an amp at guitar center, played pretty well though.
