An 'S' of a difference...

Was browsing through Ibanez's Japanese catalogue when I noted the S320, which is also offered here in S'pore.

The market also offers the S420 which is the S320 in every sense, so why would Ibanez offer 2 of the same guitar & gave them a different model number? It took me quite a while to note the absence of a string retainer behind the nut of the S420 which differentiates these 2 fine instruments. Would anyone out there be mindful of this mere difference & make a conscious choice accordingly? We continue to wonder...

Insomnia... insomnia... insomnia...

that's the diff also, but we must understand the S-series are all 24-fretted now (2010). wondering why the manufacturer is still holding on to the S320 when it's goodbye to many other models...

maybe because that 'satch' vibes influence in it, for those who 'unwillingly' to go for the real js sig models

hmm... might be, but the JS model is not based on the S-series, it's the discontinued Radius model :-)
