Ibanez Tim Henson TOD10 rerurn or not

[Ibanez Rules]

Didn't expect TODs to sell so well...
Sure it looks nice, but I'd rather take an AZ which is more versatile

They are AZ's.

They are AZ's.

Yes, but without the wirings the makes the AZs desirable
At least I haven't seen any mini switches on the TOD

I have two thoughts about this that might sound contradictory.
Indonesian and Chinese factory made guitars will often have issues like this regardless of price. Strandbergs made in Indonesia and seem to me to have worse QC.
If you bought it brand new and don't like it, return it.

Not knocking OP but the fact that in 2024 we're paying 1900 of any currency for Chinese or Indonesian guitars is nuts.

Jfc I bought a custom shop Esp for 1900. This shit looks like a 300$ guitar. Like they hired DeVries to rout that motherfucker with his teeth. They are getting way too stupid with prices lately and they only get away with it because they're ripping off kids who don't know better.

OP get rid of that trash and put your 1900 on a used Japanese guitar. Even if you have to take it to a luthier for fret leveling and shit or swap pickups or hardware at least you know the wood work is good.
