Mid-tier rock machines

If you wish for a mid-price guitar with some whammy adventure in the Ibanez catalog these days, you'd come across this RG350DXZ. (List: $599)

The other option would be this RG370FMZ; sans pick guard & a very attractive flame maple top to boot. (List: $649)

Unlike the mid-tier Standard RGs of yesteryears, these are featuring mahogany body & a very functional dual action bridge unlike those nightmare TRS models we knew too well. So are these worth the trouble?

PS: Both models in stock @ Swee Lee
