Not available here

Above instruments:

1. Ibanez SR300M (maple fretboard)
2. Ibanez XP300 (with Edge III whammy bridge)

These are not available here, despite them not being too special (only available in the USA). The SR300 is a maple fretboard variation, while the XP300 sports an Edge III bridge. What we have here in stores are the rosewood fretboard SR300 & the XP300FX fixed bridge version. Is it a big deal? It gives us, players/ buyers some options to think of before parting with cash. I also told some stores here if they bring in these models, they would get an upper hand in terms of sales because these are simply not available anywhere. Maybe the additional costs of making them available in the local stores make them not worth the extra trouble, especially so when there are online stores out there attending to specific wants.
