As an Australian wanting a versatile multiscale instrument, I've settled on Ormsby's GTR line which is made in Korea. The only downside is there may not be stock left over for a run, so you may need to preorder.
Good pickups, stainless steel frets, good multiscale design, specs you can rarely get anywhere else, solid higher-quality Korean construction. Because they're mass-produced in Korea they aren't perfect finish-wise, but since I can order direct from Perth, the setup and fret finishing is immaculate.
For me, it falls within the price range of Ibanez Premium, but better quality and more options if you want more modern multiscale stuff. As much as I want another Ibanez Prestige, it's difficult to justify when I can spend 30%~ less. And as much as I like the meme, 'buy a used Prestige' isn't really a thing here.
