Sorry, I'm sort of a noob 
By looking at the specs can you tell if this guitar will be tight?

Or does it depend on the strings? :O

It depends on strings and what tuning they're in.

Ah, I see, thank you for the help
The RG1527 has been, and always will be, made in Japan. There has never been a Prestige series RG made anywhere otber than Japan.

While that is true, I recall some models not having the "Team JCraft" Mark at the back of the headstock. One I remember vividly is the RG1451, and I think the 1527 as well. Can anyone shed some light on this?
The "Team J.Craft" stamp has been used off and on through out the years. It's really little more than a marketing tool as all Japanese made Ibanez guitars are made by "Team J.Craft" (which refers to the workers at the Fujigen plant who specialize in Ibanez construction).
As long as it has a serial number starting with "F" it's made in Japan.
For the record I've owned several RG1527s and remember at least a few of them having the TJC stamp.

My 1421f does not have a J craft sticker, but that's probably because it's a 'Seconds' and has an S on it instead. My 1527 definitely had one.

Why isn't used an option? You're just straight fucking yourself if you pass up a used 7621 or 7421 to get a new 7321 or w/e. Look on the used section of GC's site, CraigsList, etc...

If you could score a used 7421 or 7621 you be way better off. Now i have both a 7321 and a 7621 and while i adore my 7321, the 7621 is of far better quality and feels infinitely better.

He doesn't live in the US - international shipping costs from GC are very expensive, and very few people on Craigslist are willing to send a guitar to Beirut.

i wouldnt even get a rg7320 when i can get 2 rg7620's for the same price. same goes for the 7321 and 7621. its crazy. i have one major statement to say to people who are new to 7 strings.
YOU DONT HAVE TO GET CRAP GUITARS JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE A 7 STRING NOOB!!!!! seriously, my first was an rg1527 and all i had before that was a jackson JS1R dinky with all dead frets. i sucked but i still went for the best guitar i could get. now my playing has improved and because the guitar felt so good, i now WANT to play a lot. good guitars inspire you to play more. shitty ones that feel like crap to you make you hate guitar. just think about it

Honest opinions..
Do I get the JP50 Sterling...
or...
Ibanez RGA32 and with the money saved get some Bareknuckles...
Both beautiful guitars in my eyes.

As much of an Ibby fanboy as I am, I'd say go with the Sterling. I played the JP50 Stealth and it blew my mind. Still thinking about getting one.

+1 to the Sterling. It is actually one of the guitars that made me start wanting a 6 string again. That forearm carve is super comfy.

Oh sweet, so sound is pretty good then? think it's versatile for a wide variety of genres?

Do they make a ssevenstring version of the JP around that price point?
To answer your question go with the JP50 , seriously won't disapoint. You can swap the pickups out for w/e you want and it will scream even louder

Certainly. Maybe go for a JP100 with the quilt veneer. Just classier looking.
