SHE has arrived today! :D
My first electric guitar ever!
It's an Ibanez RG2620Z with 2 DiMarzio Pickups and a cool EDGE ZERO whammy bar.
It has shark inlays and a black finish with little shiny dots...like stars in the nocturnal sky.
All I need furthermore to rock is an amp.....and a lot of practice.^^

Congrats to you! IBZs are easily my favorites after trying many. I ended up buying an RGR420EX as my first (and still only) electric guitar and one year later (now) I'm still extremely glad I did. That Edge Zero is a nice upgrade from the Edge III, and the DiMarzios are better than what came with mine (IBZ clones), so I think you got a winner!
I ended up swapping my pickups for SD Blackout actives for some uber crunch but you should be plenty happy with yours out of the box for a long, long time.

I don't have remotely anything to complain about (except for my empty purse^^)
The Air Norton has some nice crisp clean sound and the Tone Zone is cool for distorted rock guitar (as far as I've been told). I just tested it with some digital distortion FX and it sounds good so far. I guess it should be good for Metal, too.

Ah, here it is. http://www.zzounds.com/item--IBARG350EX
I've seen the one with the shiny red-gold pickgaurd and wanted it too, but I settled for this one to work towards. :3

I wanna learn a bit of everything^^, but manily rock and metal stuff.
This is only my first rock-guitar. I own an acoustic steel-string as well, stringed with .012's wich are almost impossible to bend. But they sound a lot more stable in pitch when i play them. And I like it's sound even if the guitar was rather cheap.

Ich hab mich mit dem kantigen Ibanez-Strat-Design erst anfreunden müssen. Aber ich find sie natürlich auch schön so wie sie is. Mich hat vor allem am Anfang das originale rundere Fender-Design mehr angesprochen.
Ich nehm mal an deine Epiphone is eine Paula oder eine SG, hab sonst kaum was anderes von Epiphone gesehn. Strat produziern die ja glaub ich auch net.
Ic h lern Gitarre seit letztem November aber im Moment hab ich so viele Tonleiterübungen sowie zwei Bücher mit massig Etüden, Übungen und Riffs dass ich sicher auch ein paar Wochen ohne Lehrer lernen und üben könnte. Aber er versorgt mich nebenbei immer noch mit reichlich Musik-Theorie. Das lass ich mir natürlich ungern entgehen^^

That's true. But nevertheless any guitar needs a proper intonation, so that the guitar sounds right in the area beyond the 12th fret. If you, as you said change your tuning from Stanbdard to Drop C you have to worry about intonation and the truss rod on any guitar. It's a major change in the string tension. On Floyd Roses and Edges which are based on the Floyd and even with a storbar you have to worry about the springs additionally, of course.
It's just that on other guitars, that I've seen, you need to loosen the string completely before you can move the edges where each string sit's on the tailpiece back and forth, while I can just change that on my guitar by a 2 little screws while it's tuned in. But on the other hand I still spent hours to get the right intonation. And I also plan to change my set of strings maybe from D'Addario to another company.I never did that before but I've heard from many people that one has to reintonate it afterwards
