I really want to know wich of this tow guitars would be the best choice to buy...no matter the price...

-Jackson RR3
Comes loaded with two Duncan Designed Detonator Humbucker pickups. The double locking 2-point JT580 tremolo will stay in tune no matter how high you turn up the heat. Additional features include: maple neck with rosewood fingerboard; die-cast tuners; 3-way switch; master tone and two volume controls; 22 jumbo frets; reverse shark fin inlays; chrome control plate. Trans Red finish.

-Ibanez RG350DX
Unique "Shark Tooth" markers set the RG350DXW apart from rest of the RG series. This RG sports an ultra-playable Wizard II neck and a H-S-H pickup configuration. Features: basswood body; Edge-Pro II tremolo; 24 jumbo frets; volume and tone controls; 5-way switch; black hardware; rosewood fingerboard. White with matching headstock and white pickguard.

I aint clear on my desicion yet ...so none of them have good pickups, ok all change them, then the jackson has an unconfortable bodyshape, but a think its cool , and the ibanez isnt good cos it doesnt say prestige on the neck? :confused:

any other opinions?¿?

Not sure how you ended up with only two choices but, you said the Jackson was uncomfortable. You just answered your own question. Uncomfortable is not cool.
I once thought a "Sweeping Arpeggio" was an Italian janitor.

What made you decide on those particular guitars, if the Jackson is uncomfortable for you dont get it, but why an Ibanez? I mean Satch plays an Ibanez but I guess I'm just not that big on 'em...check out ESP or other Jacksons for that matter.

That's pretty much bull****.

I'd definitely go with the Ibanez, purely based on the ridiculously un-ergonomical body shape of the Jackson.

the jackson is definately a better quality than the RG.....but that's my personal opinion....i think most of the lower end RG's have a ratty pickup tone and the locking trems suck on them.[/former and current ibanez owner]
okay...my post is done...goodbye.

I have a DKMG and it is OK. It is not very versatile but for playing metal and mucking about on it is fine !
