    I'm not familiar with that one, but a friend of mine had an Ibanez ArtCore and loved it. Played great, sounded great. Especially for the price.
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.

    I have an Artcore, and it is excellent, very nice especially once I put my PAF Joe and PAF Pro in there. Its probably the best value out there right now.

    You can't buy a decent neck for that price! I don't know that guitar, but I might get one of them to see what the deal is. That's about $2850.00 less than a good ES 355! That'll leave you enough leftover for a set of pickups, some tuners and knobs,,, and 430 packs of strings! :D

    I just bought a Washburn acoustic starter guitar for my nephew. It was about 185 bucks and a damn nice instrument.
