The Ibanez RGA121!

Hard to beat in its price range.

Seen em around for $500-$600 used. Worth every penny.

Man that bridge looks like an air craft carrier! I'm guessing it stays in tune ok. I'm digging that guitar. Looks like an all around player's axe.

That's the Gibraltar plus. It's actually not that bad, though it does look beastly in that pic for some reason. I actually really like it. Very solid. I think it greatly contributes to why the RGA121 kicks so much ass.

Those RGA121s and 321s are amazing, I'd love one, I just don't get along with necks that thin :( (Yeah, I'm one of those weird guys that likes superstrats but isn't fond of really thin necks :laugh2:)
If you can get used to the neck, you'd have one hell of a guitar

I feel ya man. I used to be a big fan of the Wizard profile but after years of not playing on one the next chance I got to play one it felt too thin. My Hamer Californian neck is about as thin as I'll go nowadays... It feels like if a typical strat neck had a baby with a Wizard neck... I'm also a big fan of the Wizard II. But I'd be willing to bet I could 'adapt' if a nice Ibby came along at a good price. :D

I just got a reply from Ibanez on the current RGA model's maple top:
Hello,
The body of the RGA72QME is mahogany with a maple veneer overlaid. Let us know if you need anything else!

Best Regards,
-Ibanez USA
