[38thstylepost]That Mr Potato Head is amazing.

I also very much like you Decor - The Black leather against the Desert carpet.

Very nice - Although that huge fluorescent yellow guitar sat on the sofa has to go - The Feng Shui just doesn't sit right :D[/38thstylepost]

Ace guitar - Very 80s. Am sure it plays superbly.

Wooohooo!!

how do they feel against the originals?

I actually prefer the reissues to play - they just squeal and squark and ARE 80s rock! Having said that, I haven't played the originals for a little while. I'll probably do some back to backs in the newar future ;)

Of the two new ones, the Road Flare Red is the one that I've bonded with more. I like that, seeing as how I've got the two oldies to go with it! It's just got a slightly fuller sweeter sound that suits my ears. WIth the Desert Yellow it's a more treble-y sound and I just end up whacking out pinched harmonics like Billy Gibbons!

Phil - I will have to get an Ibanez family photo...

Twinfan have you ever played one of the GRG2 necks as found on the RG270? My mates got one and it feels great, I wondered if anyone could compare it to the Wizard II which seems to be on most of the RG line.. I'm almost tempted to get one after playing the GRG2, I thought I hated Ibanez and superstrats!

That is a good thing! :lol:

I do that all the time whenever I play my Thinline Tele. In fact it's all the Thinline seems to want to do.

Not played one matey I'm afraid. Superstrats are great for all out rocking. I need to learn how to tap properly...

It's exactly the same with the Yellow RG - it's nice to have two with different characters!

thats a whole lot of ibanezezez :) Not terribly fond of the color, the red is a bit too orangy, but it might be the photo... you can't go wrong with an RG (as i myself own one - O YEEEEAH)!
