I have an Ibanez Artcore AS-73 that I love.

Terrible picture, but shows the truth. I thought that it played better than any of the Epiphones within double the cost, and I snagged it for $229 on sale at Guitar Center. Great guitar, and I can live with the stock pickups. Getting used to all of the knobs is strange, but it's a great playing, good sounding guitar. Stick with round-wounds, though, because it's lifeless with flatwounds.
