well, licend floydrose trems all suck IMO!!!!
and the xt has duncan design pickups, wich arent great. (i owned a wrxt)
the ibanez probaly has ibanez pickups, wich some models are not bad.
in either cdase id think ud need to change the pu's.
also, try them before you buy them.
the wrxt i had wasnt made completely right, the neck was slightly off, so the high e kept going of the fretboard.

Loosen the neck screws and push the neck gently so the neck angle is corrected. YOu'll find there is always some sideways give, and enough to correct this sort of problem. Make sure it stays straight when tightening the screws, you may need someone to help you.
As for the Jackson Vs Ibanez, try them out, make sure you compare neck thicknesses, and see which you prefer. Also bear in mind control knob locations, seeing as the bodies are radically different shapes. And yes, you'll almost certainly want to change the pickups on either guitar in the future. |

Not all licensed floyd rose's suck. The one in my rr-3 works just fine. the one in the xt is probably the same. But I would still get the ibanex though. Lower budget ibanez are better than lower budget jacksons

agreed. go try them both out at the same time, and you will probably choose ibanez. |

Lower budget Ibanez > Lower budget Jackson
Mediocre budget Ibanez > Mediocre budget Jackson
High budget Ibanez > High budget Jackson
Custom Ibanez = Custom Jackson

I can't work the Bridge on my WRXT, and I've had it for almost a year now.. so I'd go with something with a good bridge, or learn how to deal with them before you get either.

Very true.
My NJ Warlock's licenced trem was always accurate. |

I don't like Ibanez RG's for the most part. They feel like cheap fragile pieces of crap with strings on them. The hardware on that particular model(320B actually, the flametop ones) is garbage. Can't say anything about the WRXT, but I was very impressed with the WRMG.
