Well, since that is my first Ibanez, I have only my Epi to compare it to, and I must say that neck is a whole different world.
The wizzard II is a little flatter and wider from what I can remember, and a little easier to play, but the difference is not that big, at least to a beginner like me. Don't know how it compares when you're shredding like mad
As far as the pups go, the sound is quite nice and warm, I will be considering changing the HB's to Dimarzio's though.
But I still have to figure out what exactly I want
All in all the guitar is way more than I expected it to be, much more worth than the 300 euro I paid for it imho.
For me, that guitar is 100% a keeper :P
