Okay, for anyone who has actually followed this whole damned thread:

I went to Niccolai's tonight for gay sex, and while I was there I bought that Ibanez. It played AWESOMELY, but physically it was a little shittied up. (minor scratches, missing fine tuner, etc.) However, while on my way there I stopped at Priority music and saw a like-new Jackson leftie. It was missing a knob and the trem bar.

I played the two side by side for a while. Ironically, the stock Ibanez pickups sound a lot better than the duncan designed. However, the Jackson trem is a lot nicer than the Ibanez edge. (although the righty tremelo arm I got off luke feels weird). Also, the neck on the ibanez has a smoother heel, so I could get about 2 frets higher. However the Jackson had pretty fret inlays.

Basically, it came down to new and pretty vs. old and scuffy. Both guitars played great, but I traded the Ibanez half an hour after I bought it. For the ibanez + $75 I got the Jackson, new knobs, tremelo arm, and a used hardshell case with some queer NIN stickers all over it.

I'll eventually take some pics and post them, but for now I'm busy playing it. I actually lost a lot of speed at first, because the way I play my arm was knocking the trem out of tune. Now I'm getting used to it.

Meanwhile, since I saved so much on this, and since the electronic drums I'm wanting don't come out til June, my other tax check will most likely be getting the following toys:

Raven West RG6900 lefty guitar.

Is it me, or is the top of that guitar made from one of the tables from an old Bickford's restaurant?

Also:

Electric Violin

and one of these:

Then hopefully I can save enough to get one of these when they come out in June/July:
Alesis USB Pro Drumkit

I love tax time.
