the bassist in my band is convinced that his guitar (regular 6 string guitar) is better than mine. and its annoying because ive always hated washburns, and my guitar cost twice his..

anyway, time for specs:

Ibanez RG420RG:
V7/8 Pickups
Edge III trem
24 frets
Wizard II neck
1 volume & 1 tone
5 way selector
sharktooth inlays
insanely low action
stays in tune like a dream (locking nut <3)
light as air



Washburn W200PRO-E:
EMG 81/85s
Stopbar tailpiece
22 frets
neck= godknows.
2 volume & 2 tone
3 way selector
dot inlays
loses tune on even the smallest bends
heaviest guitar ive ever held, gives me backache.


but which is actually BETTER?

My opinion, the Ibanez by a mile. I have an Ibanez S520EX and, as far as action + fit + finish, Ibanez are making some of the best guitars out there, bar none, including Washburn, which I've never cared for...but that's just me. :)
