Do this for a month or two, and see if your thoughts change about it.

If they don't, if the finish is a bit beat, sell it to me and I'll strip it bare mahogany.*








*assuming I can afford it after the assfucking VAT does to the cost of guitars imported into the UK. :/

Drew has a good idea... play it for some time.. and .. if nothing changes... Just sell it

[Stitch]

Hands off you bastards, I'm first in line!

Here's what you should do: Try to inspire yourself with that guitar again by watching some cool vids with S models er something like that. Because what might happen is, after you sell it, you're going to see or hear something that will make you wish you hadn't. An S with a Lo-Pro7 and a HSS config isn't going to be released again you know. So for as much as you spent on it, I'd say give it a proper chance and try to like it before you drop it. I know what you're going through. I'm already thinking of selling my 2127X for a JP7. :/

Sell that to me also!

If you do decide to sell it, you know how much I want that guitar. I'll even let you borrow it if you feel the need for a blast now and again

No you ain't, I got in there weeks ago! About the same time as I borrowed his 5150 in fact.

Hell, if anything I plan to add more to the collection.

I agree with Big555. Just keep the collection. I always hate myself when I start to miss the one that I sold! Keep them!

I called dibs when I found out what he was getting from the states, mate.

I hear you don't reply to drunken metal texts anymore.

You can't get the HSS pickup configuration on the newer S7 models, and the guitar is also from the time when Ibanez made some of their best guitars ever, so I'd doubt you get the same quality in a newer S either.


+ the trem of course. Lo-trs isn't exactly the same quality as the Lo-pro.

S7 with LoPro: it's a keeper for sure. Like you said, use it for a different tuning. It can be your 'jam along' guitar in standard, or use a more whacked out tuning. It's got a pretty versatile sound and config.
