if i really like the sas32, what other models do you think I would like? the sas32 is my first and only Ibanez so far

Ideally something with a similar neck profile, with H-H layout.. but open to any recommendations.

I play all kinds of rock and a bit of 80's metal and punk

budget up to around $1000..but also thinking about just buying another of the same if I can find one :)

Thanks for any thoughts Cool

Hello,

Which SAS32 do you have? I know the UK had a better variety of SA guitars than we had here in the US. There was a lavander MIK SAS32 available in the UK several years ago. I wanted one of those so bad but I couldn't get one here in the US. I have an MIC SAS32EXFM. I like it O.K. but I like my MIK and MII SA & SAS guitars a lot better. I love the True-Duo pickups in it though. From what little I can see in this years catalog descriptions, it looks like this years MIC SA guitars are more like the older MIK and MII SA guitars.

SA260's are truly wonderful guitars. I have two of those and I just love them to death. Maybe you would like one of those. I also have an SA120 and that one has turned out to be a really fun guitar to have as well.

Hi!

I think the model of mine is 'SAS32FM TL'. MIK



Yeah I really like the True Duo pickups too. I did post here a while ago that I wanted to replace them but I am glad I haven't.. I use the 'in-between' positions on the switch a lot more now.

I will look out for those SA260's.. is that one in your pic (the metallic blue on the right)? looks great

That's the one I was talking about. That's the one I wanted but couldn't get because it was never available in the US. Oh my gosh I wanted one of those sooo bad.

Your SAS32FM is the two humbucker version of my SAS36FM. So I can imagine that your SAS32FM plays just as amazingly well as my SAS36FM. No wonder you like it so much. Mine feels like it's alive and has a soul of it's own. It also feels like it was made just for me.



Both the guitars in the pic I posted earlier are SA260's. They are both wonderful and amazing guitars.
