I was able to get a killer deal on this guitar so I had to pull the trigger. As usual with Ibanez, it feels incredible, especially at this price point I've always been a huge fan of thin and light guitars so this one really does the trick. If you saw Rob Chapman's review on this axe, they did this thing where he balanced it on one hand at the neck joint to show the weight distribution. It worked for me too which was really impressive. Although it's light, nuances like that make it feel really solid.
If I decide to hang onto this, the stock pickups will be getting a swap, most likely the bridge as well. The neck is a little different than what I'm used to on an Ibanez, but it's comfortable. The fretwork for a non premium/prestige pleasantly surprised me.
I'm also looking into instrumental pickups. They look great and I've heard awesome reviews. If anyone has experience with them, let me know please.
