I love my S470 which I put a D sonic in the bridge. However I wish it had a Lo Pro Edge. I like the ZR but I feel it is not as good as a low pro

Anybody else see those Sabers in the 2012 catalog? Pretty stuff in there. Saber Premium it looked like.

I was disappointed by the 25th aniversary having 24 frets, a ZR, and no mini toggles, but other than that they looked good. The walnut topped one looks amazing.

Completely agreed on the walnut one, might have to buy that one so I don't kill myself when they discontinue it in 3 years. But with the Anniversary models, if not a ZR what would they have had?

Well, when the S series came out, it had an original edge trem on it just like the RG series. Seeing as they still make that bridge, I'd like to have seen it on there. I just think the anniversary model should share atleast some of the features the old one had. The new body isn't shaped quite the same either, it has a deeper cutaway and a differently contoured back.

I got two S guitars now and am now a whore for 540's.

My first is a 91' S540 in some blue color 100% stock and mint (my love).

The second is a 87' 540SPRO or something like that. Modded to hell by previous owner. Pics will come up when I finish rescuing it from the "mods" the other guy did XD. He removed the 3 mini's and put in the super 5 way deal most have now. So disappointing but its becoming my main so I expect it to get banged around a bit.

TLDR Now a 540 whore XD
