My RGT arrived! (Ibanez picstory! 56k: Grab a snack.)
I don't think I could be happier with this guitar. Ibanez makes the best overseas stuff in my opinion, and I'm extremely glad I went with this one. Wonderful looking guitar, plays great! Only thing I did is lowered the saddles. The model number is RGT42FX. Mahogany body, Neck-through joint, 5 way pickup switch, INF 1 and 1 open coil humbuckers, and off-set dot inlays. Its pretty rare to see, at least here. Without further ado, the porn:

Whats this? A box? Looks like UPS had a bit of fun with it.



My weapon of choice, some badass knife i got years ago.



It's open!



Lots of packing material, this makes me feel better. Thanks again, American Musical.



Getting closer...



WOW! What a badass guitar. Setup was great right out of the box, I only had to tune 2 strings.



Upper portion:



Wonderful chrome logo and creme binding.





The best feature of the guitar IMHO, the great fretwork and sex-tastic neck!









Thats it, I will happily answer any questions you might have.

...why do you live in the US?



How much did it set you back, and where did you buy it from, if you don't mind me asking?

Sure Ryan will chip in about EU-market Ibanez guitars too.

Sorry man,

It set me back about 630$ USD, and that was that. I bought it from American Musical supply (http://www.americanmusical.com/) , they didn't charge tax or shipping, so price was flat.

I hope you have some luck finding some Ibby's over there. I know the feeling.

Edit: Park, thanks alot man!

That just isn't fair. You get the RGT42's cheaaper than we do, and they are meant for our market!

Not fair.

Nice. I've always wanted either one of these or an RG321 to mod.
