I do like the new Giger model except the color of the inlay woulda looked cooler in a white color rather then the gold.

and the missing Sam Totman beer holder joke made me laugh.

thanks ryan!

a few random thoughts were that:

the dragonforce dude's guitar is actually kinda hawt!
a UV777 would do in my sofa
its really looks stupid to have SEVEN written over a 6-string neck
Satch's 1600 would be ever so awesome had it not had a plain headstock.
im a sucker for anything with sunburst finish.

Eat Shit. Billions of flies can't be wrong.

I'm liking the White 2550 and the white SA but for the most part it is pretty MEH. I don't really like S guitars but it is nice to see them go back to wizard necks with 24 frets on some of those

I dunno... I was a little underwhelmed. Seeing the Xiphos 7 in print is kinda neat... I was 1/2 hoping to see the Iceman in 7 string form for some reason...?

I think the other big manufacturers really raised the bar with a couple their releases, and the Ibanez one was less than groundbreaking, IMO.

Well... Nothing much to write home about imo.
I'm a bit deceived...

I kind of like the FR and SA but that's about it.

Why no new Universe?
Why f*ckin Dragonforce signatures?
Why is it so hard to come up with a freakin' maple neck?
Ibanez designers are sleeping at the wheel.

I owned a Apex1 for awhile and must say the Biker Black finish is awesome in person and the onlays are actually pretty cool. Besides if a guitar feels good and sounds good who really cares about the onlays of all things? But other than that, the catalouge was very dissapointing.

Interesting that they seem to be pushing the S-series much harder nowadays as their flagship model over the RG.

I really don't agree. I think this hasn't hit as hard because we've already known about most of the catalogue - the new trems, the DragonForce sigs, the Xiphos 7 have all been talked to death in individual threads. There wasn't much left to talk about after all the talk of the new 7 and new 6's like the SV etc. so it doesn't tell us anything new with the catalogue.

Yeah, good point.

If wasn't for discussing all those things on here ahead of time, any one of them would've been pretty big news (Xiphos 7, new trems, etc.)
