Also, the Ibanez has a much better tremolo.

well im pretty sure i want the ibanez but it's a bit pricey for me. i can probally get at least $300 for my schecter.

i believe it was mentioned before that you might not feel comfortable with the 27 scale inch neck that comes on the interceptor.

Ibanez guitars in general are better quality than Agiles (not to say that Agile's quality suck, they're very good instruments). The thing with the Agile is that some of its features (27" scale, DiMarzio pups, ebony board) are not found on any other guitar currently on the market for the same price of the Interceptor. I bought an Interceptor because I was looking for a guitar with exactly those specs (even down to the reversed headstock), so I guess in the end is personal preference.

Yeah the interceptor also has a inferior Licensed floyd trem whereas the 1527 has a really good Edge Pro 7.

To some people the 27" scale is a good thing. I would think so.

Here's my review I just did today.
