NGD - Good 'ol Ibanez RG1527

[RuffeDK]

Traded my Washburn WM24V Pro for this badboy. It plays like any other RG1527 - amazing instrument! Pics taken after strings was removed. Enjoy!

A little beaten up, but I don't mind

Really nice trem-block!

Wall of 7's.

Cheers! I'm off taming the beast

HNGD!

 

[Leuchty]

mmm... love me some 1527ness...

Congrats mate! Nice collection you have there!

 

[RuffeDK]

Thanks

 

[Musiscience]

Congrats, she's beautiful! Happy NGD!

I have been GASing for one of those for quite some time now.

 

[RuffeDK]

^ Do it man! They are awesome guitars

 

[JosephAOI]

That is a gorgeous piece of rosewood. HNGD, mate!

 

[JLocrian]

Congrats man! It looks sweet!

 

[DarthV]

Nice score! And what trem block is that? Doesn't look as flexible as a tremol-no, but probably more stable than one. And easier to change than blocking with wood.

 

[RuffeDK]

Thanks guys!

I wonder if I should get a custom paintjob for it. Galaxy White anyone?

 

[JosephAOI]

SWIRL.

 

[DarthV]

Galaxy white for sure!

going for the per nilsson look without the neck pickup...?

Awesome score dude, been looking at grabbin one as well. Very nice!

Maybe There is just something about a "missing neck-pickup" that I really dig. You could call it a fetish! Haha

@JosephAOI - Hmm, never thought about swirl. Highly considered!

1527's are awesome guitars. So cool I'm tempted to not sell mine, as much as I'd like to completely change my lineup.

 

[Itchyman]

Nice guitar!
I don't mean to thread jack, but I have the option to trade my ESP Horizon NT7 for one of these.. Do you think I'd be downgrading? I really don't like how it plays - the nut is simply too thin.

You'd be downgrading in terms of price, yes. But value doesn't matter all too much if you're going to play the 1527 more. I like the necks on the 1527's but I don't use trems enough to do a straight trade. I'd take my time and get at least $1400 for the NT7 and get something nicer.

 

[RuffeDK]

^ This. For $1400 you can get two RG1527's @ reasonable condition

 

[Sunyata]

Seriously nice fretboard. Love figured rosewood. Enjoy!

I love my 1527 and the royal blue finish is lovely. The neck feels amazing on it...

Happy NGD!
