I myself have been pklaying a ibanez s540 as my main guitar for years ( plays any and all styles) and I love it. But I also play an ibanez s370 with emg's and an old style floyd rose that I built. and I also play a jackson with a reverse headstock dinki neck with emg's and a custom frankenstein guitar I built to resemble eddie's and a hot rodded hamer destroyer style . so go to guitar center or wherever and play 10 guitars and like the other player said ifn it feels good and sounds great.........get it
