Hey guys, it's time for me to part with the oldest of my 3 current guitars, my beloved shred machine, an Ibanez RGT42FM. I've upgraded the holy hell out of this thing, with EMG's (85B, 81N), a Prestige Edge Pro bridge, and an ESP Arming Adjuster (see pics, it basically functions as anything from a total block to just a bit of a stabilizer, and kicks ass).
I won't lie, because of the neck-thru 5-piece maple/walnut neck, even with the mahogany wings it's still a VERY bright guitar, so for rhythms it's not the best, but my god does it snarl and wail with lead playing; all the leads on "Song for my Parents," as well as the guest solo for Wyllie (both of which can be found on my soundclick player on my myspace in my sig) were done with it, among others. Price $500 shipped (includes pictured bitchin' SKB case) in the US; any questions, just ask; I know there aren't many Ibanez fans on here, but I figured someone might be interested in this (IMO) breathtakingly beautiful axe.

And thats actually some mighty nice playing on the parents song!
It currently has some (pretty old) D'addario .10-.46's in E standard, btw - I'll leave 'em on for the sake of keeping tension on the Edge Pro, and there's a block in the case that fits perfectly under the bridge for string changes, you should find it quite useful!
