    The dude from meshuggah uses it. The bottom string is .7

    I like the looks of it.

    Now that's a guitar.

    It said in the article it has a reinforced neck and wieghts a ton!!! I'd love to give it a whirl. They dude says its plays very well. Doesn't suprise me. I know that 6 string bass has amazing action. Ibanez are quality guitars if you can see the so called Nu-Metal image they may have. They make some class guitars. No questions asked.

    If you can get your hands on the Japanese models with the Prestige necks. You will not be dissapointed :)

    The japanese are amazing guitar builders..

    I would absolutely adore one of those.
    I think it has to go on my wishlist next to the Paul Reed Smith Custom 24.

    Actually... anyone have an idea of what model that is?

    It's not in production at the moment, it's a custom job. There's an article about it here and in this month's Total Guitar.

    Ouch, $3k!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    They're great alright. I love my RG. It's a nu-metal beast but the tone out of is great for other sounds too. And it plays faster than anything else I've played bar a Prestige RG

    $3k eh? Ah, could be made for cheaper in a custom shop...

    Nice guitar though :D

    I think I'd have to try my hand on a 7-string first before lumping out for something like that. Maybe when I'm famous, eh?

    Mmm, I like my seven string. Maybe I'll bring it down. I'm returning in 3 weeks time.
