I've been looking a lot at the Ibanez S520EX lately. It seems to be quite a nice guitar for that price (around $600,-). Especially because the ZR tremolo sounds (and appears to be) pure genious. If the rest of the guitar appears to be as amazing as I think it is, I wouldn't mind upgrading the pickups later if that were needed. Of course it gets some good reviews. What do you guys think?
