I own 10 guitars, (15 different ones), and I have to rate ibanez as the best overall player.

I have a Gibson Les Paul Prenium which is my pride and joy (cost me well over £2k!!!), but I hardly ever touch it in comparison to my Ibanes guitars.

I find Ibanes Guitars extremely flexable in styles they can be used for, and the speed you can reach on their Wizard II and other various style necks is, (imo), unmatchable - Altough my Peavey ESP Signature Series gets pretty close when used with 9 Gauge strings.

I Also love the various pickup arrangments you can get with different Iby's. The Jem 555, altough bottom of the range comes with a set of Seymore Duncans and the tonal range of the two hbs and one sc pickup is phenominal! It sounds superb in clean, Heavy OD, Light OD and Even through an acoustic simulator, such as is available on the Marshall AVT series of amps.

Highly recommend Ibanez.

THe Les Paul on the other hand, I don't think anything can match its sustain. Maybe a PRS.

I did that to an acoustic I have and it feels weird. I want that guitar that is like a little square because I dont think anything would get in the way.Did hendrix use his bar upside down?I think he did... kurt kobain is left too, doesn't really matter, just a fact.

You could go with the Gretsch Bo Didily guitar it is a rectangle and it wouldn't matter if you turned it upside down.

Ha, those suck. Even though I moved to drums after 3 months of guitar lessons, I still have taste, and Gibson is my taste of choice. Tastes good.

dont know what i had said before....but ibanez is my current favorite.

i bought one about six months ago and i love it. the neck is perfect. not too arched but not too flat. the trem on it never goes out. beautiful guitar overall.

although....after i buy a car, im gettiing a gibson les paul standard. sexy guitar, plays insane, but at not so sexy of a price.
