I need to buy a guitar within the next few days: Which GIBSON? (jazz, metal)

Nah I stand by my last comment and I'll add that they have nothing new to offer that hasn't already been done before, those last few are just gibson rip offs.

I had an Ibanez when I was a 'pubescent' teen (first guitar) and apart from having an easy-to-learn-on thin neck I'll never look back (they're also plagued with low quality hardware).
But back to the original question, for jazz gibson are great. Guitarist in my band used to study/teach jazz and he swear by the ES series and from playing his I can say its a nice piece of workmanship. Even though the Ibanez can give a lower jazz tone it's not it's forte.
But yeah whatever floats your boat and works for you.
