Moser Guitars or Ibanez Guitars?

ZOMB13 · 01-23-2008, 02:54 AM

I did not know where to put this, but here it goes...

I, work at Taylor Guitars, the rest of my band (expect the 2nd singer) work at Carvin Guitars, meaning we all went to NAMM. At NAMM, we were handing out our CDs ( MySpace.com - Squirrelly Arts - City of Plastics and Wonderful Wonders! - Other / Other / Other - www.myspace.com/squirrellyarts ) We came over to Moser Guitars, and we were talking to Moser himself, and sponsorship talk came up, and Moser said he was looking for new, creative bands to endorse and what not, so we gave him a CD, he was interested in our art work, and he said if he liked our stuff, he would give us a artist sponsorship, he told us the details and that left us

so we agreed to talk to them in about 2 weeks, now, don't get me wrong, Moser Guitars ARE badass, and the deal they offered us is REALLY sweet, BUT! I told my band that we should also try to show our stuff to Ibanez, see what kind of response we get from them, and the band was all "well, we should take what we can get" and "we will NEVER get sponsored by Ibanez, they are huge, we are nothing..." and the last one "your pipe dreams will never come true, lets just go with Moser and play their stuff"

All this got me kinda pissed, cause, not to sound like a sell out, but all my stuff IS Ibanez, not cause I want to get endorsed by them, but because its GREAT stuff! my 2 Ibanez guitars =

my Ibanez pedals =

my Ibanez cases =

ibanez pedal cases =

.... I'm like, fuck, what do I do? what do you guys think? am I being to stupid about this? should I even send my band's press kit to Ibanez knowing they most likely won't do anything? (but should that stop me from playing Ibanez?)

ARGH!

I'm going to go nuts.....over nothing!

Can't help to send it to them.. and if nothing else the mosers will look

Send your stuff to Ibanez! You never know what could happen!

Moser's custom shop i'm sure will be alot more accesible than Ibanez LACS for you, as that's pretty much A endorsee level stuff. Moser gets my vote for that reason alone.

EDIT: then again, Neil doesn't do sevens... scratch that, go for Ibanez

cause he's old, stubborn and set in his ways... perhaps content trying to relive his B.C. Rich glory days of creating off the wall designs and nothing more

ok so what I have gotten the last few weeks is that Bernie Rico Sr owned B. C. Rich back before 1999 and Moser used to work for B. C. Rich?

but I guess quit to make his own guitars?

neal does do sevens, he's got a few in the mill right now, also being the proud owner of one of the first bastard Vi's I can tell you this, neal's guitars are the best, period.

Moser said he would do sevens for $100 more.

I like his stuff, but I also love Ibanez, I guess I'll send out our press kits and see what happens.
