Mick from slipknot signiture guitar

When did this thing come out? I might actually get one, but I don't like the retarded looking "SEVEN" inlay. The real reason I want it is the reverse headstock. What do you guys think of it?

Good quality, probably overpriced.

Best bet: buy a used RG5xx or higher, swap the pickups and block the trem (if it has one) and it'll be about the same quality.

Aside from the inlay, I think it's a nice looking guitar for a 6-string.

zimbloth · 03-14-2006, 12:55 AM

$1299 for that is ridiculous, IMO.

why the heck should it say seven if its not a 7 string, its just crewl.... for that sort of cash, if it were a 7, ibanez would make a lot more cash

I'm definately gonna snag one when the price goes down a bit. That thing is just wicked!

It's just a mahogany bodied RG with a retard inlay. You can get a Jackson SLSMG (also mahogany), that is neckthru with an ebony board for under a grand. Use the cash you save to replace the EMG-Hz pickups and still have cash left over.

I hate how expensive artist signature guitars tend to be, and there is always something about them that I can't live with.

The damn thing is made in Korea, it's not even RG1570 level quality. Total Rip Off. It's an RG321 with a reverse headstock, fugly as hell inlay, and EMGs.

I said it before, I'll say it again:

Ibanez - great guitars, shitty marketing.

They should have made another RG 7-string instead of a stupid signature.

See, I hate Jackson's (can't stand their necks for some reason) and love the reverse Ibanez headstock. That alone makes it worthwhile to me
