Bottom line, this is one of the finest electric guitars I've ever owned. It's an insanely versatile and precise instrument. Of the two Kiko Loureiro signature models Ibanez makes, this one is the step up. They took an S-Series Prestige guitar - an already superior shredding machine - gave it to Megadeth's master-shredder and jazz fusion prodigy and he said, "well sure, but what if you changed this, this, this, this, and this." Such as...Scalloped frets up high for easier bending and tappingA deeper cut horn so you can approach the high frets from various anglesRecessed control knobsA tilt-in jack on the side of the body, rather than on the faceThe original Edge tremolo systemDiMarzio KIKO original pickupsThe thing that does it for me, though, is the coil tap on the volume knob, which gives you 10 different pick up configurations including humbucking AND single-coil options. This thing can go from hardcore shred to buttery jazz to single-coil twang with the pull of a knob and a 5-way blade.I bought it on Ebay in 2015 from some nice people at a guitar shop in NJ where it had been hanging on the wall for a while, so it was pretty heavily discounted. I play guitar for live theatre shows from time to time and figured I'd really need this guitar's range of sounds, but it's like bringing a lightsaber to a knife fight, and I'm no Jedi.I listed it in "Excellent" condition. It's got a scratch on it on the back of the body near the bolts (hard to see in the photo), about the size of something you could fit on your pinky fingernail. Otherwise virtually pristine. It's never left my house and hasn't been played that often. It's like new, with the plastic coating still on one of the back panels.I mostly just want my money back, so it's yours for what I paid for it, which is kind of stupid cheap for this thing.Watch any videos of Kiko playing his. It's a sick, sick guitar.
