Many, many pros use them. Remember these are mostly metal Guitars. I would personally go for a Jackson but they are really expensive! Ibanez are great though.

I've had many Ibanez products, including a guitar, amp, headset, the works, and none of them have ever failed me. They might not feel or sound as good as a Jackson, but they'll last you years. ================= Ibanezes aren't just metal guitars. I've seen a female pop trio playing them using clean sounds, and the Artcore series of jazz archtops are hardly targeted towards metal. However, it's true that the pickups on Ibanez guitars tend not to be "vintage" voiced. They respond better to heavy processing, such as distortion, chorus, phaser and flange, and when played through a clean amp with no effects, they can lack the clarity and bite of Fenders and the jazzy warmth of Gibsons. Still, Ibanezes tend to have superb build quality, even on lower-priced models. The company also makes great low-priced acoustics. Among this style of guitars, I have found ESP to have the highest quality for the buck. I once bought a $249 ESP bass that was not only superbly built and extremely comfortable to play, but came with a free hardshell case -- an add-on that most other guitar companies don't start offering until the $1000 range.
