LTD Hybrid 400 or Ibanez AXS32...Opinions about it?

[MookiesLastChristmas]

Hey all, I've been playing guitar por like 1 year and a half now, and I want to buy a new one. I like to play things like muse, radiohead, bright eyes, underoath, So i'd like a really good clean sound, and a kinda-powerful distortion. Im really into 2 guitars. The ibanez AXS32 and the LTD Hybrid 400, the thing is that Im from Chile, and the AXS32 does not arrive here, so I haven't tried it yet but I saw a lot of good reviews about it. The Hybrid is here, and I loved it, but I don't know if the Ibanez is better than the LTD. What do you recomend?

please help :burnout:

The AX looks really nice... I'm a big ESP/LTD fan tho... I really don't know, I'm tempted to say that both will be nice guitars. I dunno much about the price difference between the two... The hybrid might be a good idea since it has a single coil in the neck so you'd get some more polyvalence with it, altho the Ibanez might be really versatile with a nice set of pick-ups and maybe the split-coil option... I'd say get the one that feels more comfortable and "natural" for you. I ordered my ec-1000 but I at least played a couple before ordering and even then, I got lucky to love mine that much... So if the LTD's the only one you can play, I'd be tempted to say go for that one... Good luck!

The Hybrid also comes with better appointments that you don't have to upgrade later.
