It's an RG. "Dinkys" are Jacksons.

Cato

Ibanez has made some great guitars. The Blazer series guitars and basses are awesome. I play my Blazer bass at every gig. Plays like a P bass and sounds better. My Blazer guitar sounds and plays exactly like a strat too.

Are you going to dress up like Big Bird from Sesame Street while you play it?

No way. You wear a pink shirt with silver tights and cowboy boots and play....

GOIN' CRAZY GOIN' CRAZY
FROM THE HEAT

What the hell, if the price was OK, not a bad purchase. Definitely dated, but not a bad purchase.

I would pay $27 for a Korean Ibanez in a heartbeat...

The last RG series I played (japanese) blew me away.
The fastest neck Ive ever played on...
Great guitar..

$27 ?? Cato, you are a man amongst thiefs !

Nice clean neck pocket with no stickers or paint in there. Look at how nicely the pickup routes were done. Also, no big ass hole from being hung by wire during the painting process. Little details that take extra work to have. Looks like a well built guitar from the photos.

my strat is unbelievably light. it's only 6.6 lbs. and that's why I bought it.

Nice Strat Cato.

:rockit2: :cato2:


So what's in store for the Ibanez?

paint job?;) , modifications?, sell for profit? strictly picking exercises?
twisted whammy theatrics?
chop for kindling?

Cato
02-28-2007, 08:27 AM
I'll sell it at 250 bucks and will buy another strat. :cato2:

Buy a defocated-on punji stick and jump on it you sick yellow bastard.

Then douse yourself in kerosene and light a match, but do not fart. Just burn.

Yo Cato, the Ibanez was a killer deal cause the locking bridge is worth that alone ... float that sum bitch then I bet it would WAIL!!! ...

The strat is cool, I'd slap in a humbucker on the bridge though ... and for Elv's fender? ... Trippy

Seriously Cato, if you are going to sell that one on ebay, make sure to mention that you'll throw in a free pair of sunglasses.......:D
