USA custom vs Japan original?

I was wondering what the differences are between the two, I can't seem to find a whole lot of info online about the differences. 

From what I have seen it looks like the USA has a different pickup combo, thicker body, and neck thru construction, is that right?

What other differences are there between the models? I almost get the impression that the USA is the better of the two, but what about quality and workmanship? I know ESP is second to almost no one in that department but is the USA on par with the reputation?

The Asian (not all Japan) examples I have owned have been a bit crap. A KH-202 (I know), an M-II, and a KH-2 bolt on signature lefty. Sooo...nothing to lose trying USA.
