S prestiges have been known to suffer from sustain issues (not sure why), RGs are tried and true and will give you great quality. the gibby is nice as well. it comes down to what sound you want: bass wood or mahogany body. Floyd or no floyd. Thin or thicker neck. and american made or japan made (this is preference) You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

A Prestige RG or S Series is way better than the JS-100, Prestige Ibanez are made in Japan and feature higher quality in all aspects + you get more bang for the buck on a non signature guitar!!! Try to find a used Rg or S Prestige in a good condition and spend the rest of the money on DiMarzio Satriani or Steve Vai Pickups to get in the Ballpark of their sounds. You CAN get Satriani sounds out of a Gibson V but you will have no Tremolo and not everybody is a Flying V player (looks weird on some people, others can't play them sitting down right..) The Rg's have 24 frets and are made from basswood like Satchs guitars while the S series have thin mahagony bodies and mostly 22 frets. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Or remove it and leave the space empty Or just get a HH-Scratchplate for the RG and it will cover the hole! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
