I wonder if feedback about some of the custom features on these will be taken into consideration by Ibanez? For example, "Sunset" JPCS16 is a short-scale RG, any chance of that happening on a production guitar?
I can't believe it took until page 2 for someone mention a Headrush FRFR, I only have the 1x8 and it works great at home or with the band. And they are a lot less $ than some of the other options mentioned here.
I love KISS, but Christine Sixteen is definitely cringey, especially the spoken middle part -
I don't usually say things like this to girls your age

that day I knew, I knew I've got to have you, I've got to have you
Congrats on a sweet guitar, at a great price! I felt the same about the voice naming, like 'Push' should be voice 1 and 'Pull' voice 2, but I guess as long as you know the difference in tone and which one you want to use, it doesn't really matter what they're called, right?

Lucky for me, I just grabbed a used Elite from GC, that looks to be like new (still has plastic the on the pickguard), for $1030!! And 0% for 36 months :) Should be...
Anyone with small hands and/or short fingers (which doesn't apply to the 3 guys you mention) certainly appreciates a contoured heel!
As far as the Ultra series, I agree with most here that the hype was way overblown for what they are - tweaked Elites.
^ Same here, I never thought much of Schecters until playing a few in the last couple years. I have to say, they are making some really nice guitars these days. I've played the KM7 mkII and liked it a lot, but I REALLY like the C-7 SLS ELite! That would be my recommendation to the OP...
