As the headstock photo indicates, it is from their "USA Custom" shop which made guitars in the late-1980s, early-1990s, I believe. The custom graphic series came from that group. From what I've read, the bodies are RG styles and the necks are Wizards. There were two main artists doing the paint work, "Pamelina" and Dan Lawrence. The paint job is similar to others done by Lawrence, so I'd guess he's the artist.

Is there any reason to think its fake??
Are you thinking of buying it? Pretty darned good fake job if it is ... including the paint, Floyd Rose trem, very authentic-looking neck.
Here's one that's similar, but with the reverse headstock and single humbucker:

As with all things, buyer beware.
P.S. I'd post any questions you have on one of the Ibanez forums. There are quite a few.
"Everybody got to elevate from the norm."
Well it seem to be the one on the top far right of the list, judging by the HSS configuration with C-3 middle pickup n the name of paintjob could be the one.
