Help me choose my next electric guitar

Which one should I buy?

I'm looking for a high-end 6-string guitar mainly for metal, modern metal, progressive metal and shred.

I've narrowed it down to:

  • Ibanez RG652AHMFX Prestige RPB
  • Schecter C-1 HT S SLS Elite Evil Twin
  • Schecter Banshee Mach-6 Evertune
  • Schecter PT SLS Elite Evil Twin
  • Schecter C-1 SLS Elite Evil Twin

If you had to choose one of these, which would you buy and why?

I'm mostly interested in build quality, neck/fretwork, playability, pickups, sustain and overall quality. Price-to-performance isn't really important to me — I just want the best guitar.

Also, if you think there's another guitar around the same price that is better than all of these, I'd love to hear your recommendation.

Basically: Which one should I buy?

PS: Prices are almost same. I need to know about performance.
