Man I'm not worried about upgrading any time soon, even though my only axe is an Ibanez RG270. It may not be the most beautiful guitar you've ever seen, but I love the sound. The dual humbuckers and single coil are great, and the Floyd Rose never gets out of tune. I hate to brag, but I had to say that. But like Josh Redstone said, you won't be left lusting after anything out there. So lucky you and take really good care of it. That's all I have to say.
