New guitar day
« on: October 09, 2008, 02:14:58 PM »
Picked up this little beauty from Guitar Village. Was a good price and came with a sweet fiberglass case.

Of course the factory strings were sticky and corroded, so first thing I did was sling a new set on and intonate it.  It is a dream to play.  :D

I need a windfall before I put bareknuckles in it. Though I am considering medium ish output at most to preserve dynamics, VHII's that sort of thing for the humbuckers with a suitable single that balances.

Total sickness man.  I just never liked the painted on F holes, but i am sure the playability is superb.  It is an Ibanez after all :wink:

VHIIs would rock the daylights out of it.

Bloody beautiful. Paul Gilbert is one of my favourite guitarists, so i've tried a few of those before, and I think they're just outstanding. Good buy. :)

Awesome, man :D Paul Gilbert is one of my favourites too. I haven't had the chance to play his sig model, but I imagine it would be great. It definitely looks great

Ok, i wasn't being funny that was a genuine comment. I thought it was Paul Gilbert's at first but no one had mentioned it being so, so i thought that it wasn't then.  :D Il shut up now so i dont embarrass myself anymore.
