I have been looking for a shredder/practice guitar with active pickups and found a deal I couldn't pass up...
Here it is next to my (2012) Gibson Les Paul Standard Plus:
I got it with active EMG 81/85, locking tuners (added), and straplocks, with the hardcase for $200 ($180 plus $20 for the case)... It sounds really good and I like the neck on it. Been a fun couple of hours since we got home.
