Ibanez is capable of some awesome quality work - they're no longer the bang-for-buck steal they used to be (you know, when the dollar was 40% higher on the yen than it is today, thank you George W. Bush), but I don't see how anyone can pick up a properly set up UV and NOT think it's a great guitar (personal taste issues like bodywood, trems, bolt-on vs set, etc aside).

Maybe I've just gotten lucky with recent Iby's I've played or maybe I haven't played enough, but I've had no trouble with the newer ones...
To me, I see it all as internet talk. There's one fact that people have to learn about guitars. Every single one is going to be different. There are going to be many lemons, but there will also be many awesome guitars. Another important aspect is the fact that everyone has different tastes in guitars. You also can't compare guitars of two different brands.

I've had a MIJ 7620 that was a pretty bad lemon. I've had a Korean RG321MH that smoked the 7620 and a MIJ S540MOL that was a better than the rg321MH. I've now got a Indonesian RG7321 from technomancer that has had a fretjob/locking tuners and is absolutly incredible. It resonates better than any guitar I've ever had and it plays extremely well.
Of course, the stock pickups on all these guitars are absolutly horrible(7321 DEFINITELY!!), and they all need proper setups/fretjobs to be playing at YOUR specifications.


wow...this was off topic a bit :/

No, I posted that I'd like KXK to make me one as a 7 (or, really, a Caparison Horus as a neckthru 7), and then everything went to pieces. See what you get for posting an ESP?

they are expensive, but when you want a guitar shaped like a Peter Griffin which laughs when you pull up on the whammy bar they're the only place to go to

Well, ya got me there! I love that wood themed F series custom in their 2005 catalog. It had wood knobs, wood pickguard, etc. Very cool looking, almost a contradiction to the shape of the guitar, which is obviously metal.
