That's an Ibanez RG470F/TBL


Did that come with the gold hardware?... it looks rather too much, to be honest...
BKPz: Nailbomb+VHII, more to come...

Here's some family pics.


92 Ibanez 570 in Neon Purple or something along those lines.


91 Ibanez 560 in Grape Ice


89 Ibanez 560 the red is very bright!


89 or 90 Fender Strat, USA made I series that was produced for export only


83 or 84 Squire Bullet 1 in need of some TLC. Anyone know where I can get a bridge for one like this?


Blade R something or other, Japanese made. If anyone can tell me any more about this I'd appreciate it.


Hamer Centaura 91 As you can see it has been stripped back to the wood, not by me I hasten to add.


ESP The Eclipse, No idea of the date on this one, I don't know when ESP changed The Eclipse to a LP shape. Hopefully one of you knows?


Hamer Standard, it's one of the Asian ones, plays OK, but I don't get on with the shape.


Vantage V, in need of some TLC again. Sound pretty good even with cheapo pickups. I have plans for this one!


Fernandes Retrorocket, as you can see it's one of the Darth Vader ones they produced a few years ago. I haven't played it for fear of taking the paint off the fretboard.


Charvel 5a, I've had her since 89. The serial number indicates that she's an 86 but they only made the 5a model in 88, you figure that out?


Charvel Model 6 in Burgundy Mist


There's another Centaura on the way, I'll put pics of her up when I get her.

There you go that's the state of play at the moment, who know what it will be like next month. ;)

Yeah I got it for 100 quid from a mate. His brother had dropped it whilst on a train, and the top strap button had snapped off. Bit of polyfilla and some turqoise nail varnish and we're all goo again.  The gold was there when I got it, and I haven't got round to changing it ;) Abyway, it's my puppy and I love it :)

Charvel Model 6 in Burgundy Mist


Ah, so THAT's what they call that finish :)

I have a model 5 in the exact same colour - yours looks like it has a lot more of the original parts on it though (I've changed so much on mine there's not much or the original left!)
BKPs: HD, MM, NB, PK, CS, Ab (b&n); Am (b only); VHII, Tril (n only); IT, Slow, Sult (m&n)

Glad I could be of help! It's one of the rarer colours you'll find on the Model series guitars. The only things that are not original on her are the strap locks and the trem arm. The 5a on the other hand has had the shitee kicked out of her over the years! :)

I prefer my guitars to have a bit of character!

The black one is never getting sold as she was my first real guitar. The pink, ooops Burgundy Mist one is rather nice as well.

Cheers for that, she'll have to get in line behind the 2 acoustics and mandolin that's in the queue for attention before her. So many toys, so little time :/
