NGD for Ryan! *Ishibashi Content* [56k- LOL]

Sooooo I was perusing the Ishibashi Webstore when something rare and nice caught my eye. I had the money from selling the S7FM to Simon, so I figured why not? Looks like Drew was right about waiting for the right guitar to pop up instead of jumping on whatever's currently there. Anyway, I get a vm on my cell. Something about a large box from Japan?

Why hello there.


The UV senses danger.. What is it girl?


Lets use the Spyderco on this one.


Look out for teh balisong skillz0rs.


layers of bubble wrap to peel off. This baby was packed nicely.


More bubbles? hehe


Look out Matt! Someone is challenging your throne


lol


Starting to take shape.. more bubbles. Gotta respect that.


Carefully now..


HARRO KITTEH


New case I bought just to make sure everything arrives alright.. You'll see why soon.


Zippity.


This is kinda erotic..


Nice! We know it's prestige.. What could it be? Need another hint?


Here's another one then..


If you can't tell yet then damn. Here's a dead give away.


Nice case too..


Do we know yet? Rog? Yup. It's a RG2127X! \m/


Now here's the pic from Ishibashi. Look at that poor dry fretboard.


It's like light brown hehe Maybe the previous owner hasn't heard of f-board conditioner.


So after applying four heavy coats over three days we're looking like rosewood again


Lush.




<3 Offset dots.


No strings to put on though


Wait a minute.. Something from Musiciansfriend arrived today. (after a year wtf).


Ahhh, just what we needed:


Here's something im gonna need to get used to The pervert in me subconciously loves this


Look at that superclean Double Edge trem!


Plastic still on it.





So lets get the tools ready for the setup.


Yah you saw them right. Super light


Just in case you missed it the first time.


1.


2.


3.


4.


5.


Still 5. i can't get over that understated inlay.


6. Now, if we were gay we'd stop here.


7. But we're not. So lets add another string. \m/


Lower that string retainer so we don't get any tuning surprises after i clamp those pads down.


Nice! Well cared for. Cept oiling lol


I love this finish. It's like a purplely blackish red thing. It's also very hard to capture with a camera.




Looks like the same finish that was on the Meshuggah Proto 8s.


Bring it up to tune. Bb. Adjust that trem a little.


Nice.


Strectch and retune.


A little more adjusting.


That's a mighty fine trem angle if i dont say so myself.


This also makes me happy.


Put all the tool back where they belong... LOL


You can hang out here with your 7-stringed friends.


Not with your gay 6er neighbors.. Now where's that leopard chair.. It's time for RG2127X porn.










Here's a better depiction of the finish..


And I'll leave you with this one Hi-res pic.




Buying from Ishibashi was not as hard as I thought it would be. Rachel over there was super cool with helping me aquire this beast. Thanks Rachel.

The piezo sounds amazing! It's my first double edge equipped guitar, so Im still trying to think of every acoustic song i can remember. I'm gonna do an In Flames cover soon so we can all hear it.
As for magnetic pickups, im looking into some BKPs. I'm gonna email them and see what they offer that would suit my tastes. I like something akin to the Dimarzio EVO 7. We'll see what happens.

Manditory piezo clean clip. A la old school Meshuggah. ;D

Nice score, dude. How's the Powerball responding to it?

Oh yeah, and Simon's probably going to want to buy this one, too.

Fucking Epic. we have the same NGD!! OMG!


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.

The clean on the p-ball is very spanky and warm as it is. The piezos rule. I'm in love with this feature hehe
