Me no likey.

If the destroyer were a different finish, like black, maybe that, but thats about my least favourite explorer (and I love explorers).

Another very beautiful and desirable piece for 2,500+ :(

What about the Giger, it doesn't have string through and neck through, but sure looks special.

How could you tell?

A friend of mine has 3 or 4 pre lawsuit Explorers and Vs, and I've been asking him since years to sell me one, and he wouldn't - meanwhile prices have skyrocketed on those unfortunately for me.

"Special"

Like, "retarded". Those guitars are retarded.

I'd say another vote for the white Iceman (though I think it would have looked better with a 3-a-side headstock.).

Edit: As much as I love H. R. Giger's artwork I do have to say that I don't like the flat print Ibanezes based on his work. Were it the sculpted top then I might be a bit more responsive.

The flatprint is just so Ibanez can suck more money from your already depleted funds from your wallet.

I vote a black Iceman-but not the ict700. I dont like the idea of a reverse head on a fixed bridge guitar. I share your GAS, Hunter-im hunting for a black IC400 as we speak

Looks like i'm in the minority here, but i'm going for the black Iceman myself- don't like the destroyer really!

Those geigers look pretty neat, but i'd imagine the novelty would wear off pretty quickly, and you'd wish you hadn't payed a premium for a graphic.

Tough call, i like icemen, but i think they look better in bass form, probably just cos thats what i am more used to tho.
was watching a maiden video from 82 and davemurray was rocking an awesome looking sunburst destroyer, one of the first i had seen that i actually liked, similar to the one posted earlier.

id probably pick the white iceman, but i agree with this comment
and the fact that that tard from Dragonfail has an Iceman completely ruined it for me, that's how much I don't like them anymore.

he cant totally help being a tard tho. the dude's from the hutt, a suburb/town near where i live which contains a lot of interesting characters, some are great dudes, some are like him....
