@ sæmunder: I was able to play once a JS 2000. I don't know if this is the one you're referring to but this one has superior playability. I also think it's quite light in weight compared to most electric guitars. The DiMarzio pickups seem to produce the so called "not of this eart" tones of Joe Satch. Since you're also into collecting guitars and you can afford it, then go for it bro. Nothing goes wrong with a high quality Ibanez guitar. But for me, i'm stll hooked up with a vintage Fender Strat. I just love the clean tone it produces. :mrgreen:
