altho i don't like that particular model (the new Gryphon they have is REALLy kickass for under $400) i'd say go with the schecter

 

a used ibanez SZ would be a nice choice, but you're wanting something with a tail piece (they have a gibson style bridge, but string thru instead of tailpiece)

 

for what you're looking for, i'd reccomend a used ltd eclipse or viper 300 series...the emg hz pickups aren't that great (altho none in a guitar for the price you're looking at probably will) but the pickups go for a decent bit on e bay so you could pick up a nice set of used duncans or maybe even emg's without much more outta pocket

 

i've got an ec300 and it's a killer guitar
