Best for the money? I'd say Ibanez or Agile. Best for the playability? This is all based on preference. A lot of guys here will say Schecter, Agile, Ibanez, KxK, Jackson, Oni, Roter, Sherman, ESP....it could go on all day. There will never be a definitive answer. Are all my 7's Ibanez? Yes.
I'd say the best versatility-wise would be Ibanez. Best quality would have to go to the custom makers. Best sound...with the Ash/maple of the Loomis, some will say Schecter now. It's a tough call. Best thing you can do is stick to your fanboy guns and huddle with the other fandboys.
