So Christmas has gone, New Year is upon us and I can't really say that money is rolling in but I will have enough to spend on a new guitar.
I had my eyes set on Ibanez AGS83B for quite some time but, a new guitar is a big commitment(for me at least) and I've done my research and it seems like the guitar for me.
Does anyone own one or ever owned one? Is there anything I should know about them? Any comments would be great. Thanks.

I totally understand if NEW is what you want, but you could save some dough by targetting the used factor.
A few on Ebay:

Here's a similar guitar that came up in our neck of the woods this week:

Hmm, these are all in US. UK's eBay doesn't really have what I need so I have no option but to go for a brand new one. Plus I had my eyes set on the other colour for the body. I know I shouldn't discard a guitar simply due to it's colour but..........but I will

I bought an Ibanez Artcore series )I think it was the "93" about two months ago and I LOVE IT!!

If it is within your price range and plays nicely for you, I would not hesitate. Mine sounds great unplugged and fantastic through my low-end fender solid state amp. My only complaint is that the tuning pegs are a little slippery, and I will have them replaced soon.
