NGD!!! (Vigier content, pic-heavy)

I had this ordered a while ago, its was 21st birthday present from my Mum and Dad Ive never actually had a nice 6-string guitar, mine have all been cheap indonesian/korean copies...until now!!

Couldnt be bothered with a picstory, straight to the good stuff!!


Hiscox case:




Pretty geetar!!








Purdy flame




Locking tuners, carbon-fibre neck stripe (no truss-rod)




This gets pride of place on the geetar-wall:






Outdoors shots:








With new rig:









Yay for new geetar

I am extremely envious.

Those pics are enormous. Before they got resized, I was afraid they'd make my browser crash.

Instead of a Korean copy you got a French copy?

j/k - I really really want to try/buy one of those someday, maybe when I go to France next year.

Lol @ "french copy"!!

Cheers everyone

Im really happy with the way the finish came out, I was a bit nervous about how the wood would turn out but its perfectly bookmatched, I loves it!! The neck has a satin-feel which is perfect for me as I really dont like gloss necks, and the fret-access is actually better than any of Ibanez Ive ever played. Trem flutters exactly how I like, pickups have exactly enough power for what I want, plenty of grunt with clarity, I loves it

Its Shawn Lane/Guthrie licks all night long on this thing...

Mine's an Ultra Blues:



The white bridge pickup will be gone by the end of the week. The previous owner put that in, and it kinda ruins the classiness.

Well, I'm only sticking a BKP in the bridge for now. The single coils sound like they have great potential, but are being strangled by those 1meg pots. Once I get some 500ks in there I imagine they'll do me just fine.

OP: Congrats on the sexual new guitar and kickass rig! I think the first Suhr I ever saw was in that same color scheme, and layout, etc. It still makes me swoon.

Hahahahah, epic. Picture doesn't really do the colour justice either. Here's a pro one the shop took:



Apologies to Dave for the thread hijack. I have to say, I love that muted blue colour of his one. One day I'll have to get a 2nd Vigier in that finish!

Hehe, I know

"With great guitar comes great-big-massive-huge-PICS!!!!!"

The site automatically resizes them for the viewing-ness, and if people wants to they can view full size for the uber-detail-ness

Edit:

Ive been playing it for a few hours now and I think I can honestly say Im done with Ibanez. Ive been playing them for...as long as Ive been playing guitar! But having now seen what the Vigier custom shop can turn out for endorsees in small UK bands, I think Im sold. If I can get a 7-string version of this guitar in black flame with black scratchplate and jumbo frets, thats like my perfect custom!!

while it's still loading the pics and hasn't resized them yet, they're still mammoths

less black, more colour! Go a deep red over flame maple
