Any Ibanez EX series owners

Well, I'm not trying to revive the dead, but... I just picked up a EX today(pics included), so it's also a NBD for me, it's a 95 built in one of the Cort factories. I was perusing the local swap meet, and found a deal I couldn't walk away from. I remember several guys in the local punk scene gigging them back in the late 90s. One had deleted the G string entirely, they always had a good rep for cutting through the mix and having a punchy tone. I got home, dropped the rusty strings, polished the body, frets, and oiled the fretboard. Replaced the foam under the P/Us threw a new set of Rotos on it and did a set-up. It plays like a dream. Super low action no rattle, super punchy through both my Spark and Super Redhead.
