I played one at a local music store that I really liked today, but would like some opinions if there are any. It was an Ibanez AE something or other with a spruce top, mahogany back, fishamn electronics, and it was a cutaway 12 string. I liked how it sounded and the fact that it had the built in electronics was a huge plus for me. It was on sale for $475 but I have a classical guitar I rarely use that I think they'd give me $75 for, knocking it down around $400 even. I don't think that's a bad price, you guys think I should pick it up before it's sold to someone else?

I actually have an Ibanez six string as well, it's my main guitar. I'd like a higher end six but it's been well worth the $350 I spent for it 3 years ago. My Ibanez is a PFCENT-5 I think, it has decent sound, but poor sustain, sounds good plugged in and plays a lot like an electric with it's narrow neck.

<---Edit: That's me and my Ibanez in the picture to the left by the way. There's a bigger one in my profile.

how do u like it? i played one but i wasnt too happy with it, although, when i picked up the AEF 37, i fell in love! i noticed a big difference between the 2. most people say there isnt much of a difference, but there is in my opinion
