This Ibanez Prestige has been on my stable for 25+ years. It's drenched on sweat, metal and badly beaten (you should see the sides and the back of the guitar, scars everywhere). Worked really hard in a cover band night after night to be able to afford it and it was worth every single penny I invested. Until the PRSs appeared on my collection one year ago, this was The One.
My least favorite of all my main guitars, but a good guitar anyway. Thanks to this EC-1000 now I know that 24,75 scale is not my thing, that active pickups are a one-trick-pony and that black finish + golden hardware can look gorgeous. A metal machine that I keep on Drop C but not what I would call a very versatile instrument.
