New Battle Axe
« on: September 11, 2009, 06:56:26 PM »
What A bargin, I bought a Ibanez RG3EXFM Used, now this guitar is SPOTLESS! I bought it through Musicians Friend. It was ranked as #2 under used quality. I went to Guitar center previous and checked out the same guitar, and that guitar was "shop worn" pretty good.
This thing is mint, after I set it up, it's so fast I realized how much I suck! ;D

Anyway the bargin part, I got this guitar, cheap hard case, a Boss FS-5L foot switch and strings for $282.00

At Guitar center they wanted $360 just for a beat to crap version.
Here it is in the case. (There is a weird flash thing happening at the bottom of the guitar)

This is my first Ibanez. There is a little more "room" on the fret board than I am used to, but I like it.

it'll adjust real nice and low with a little work. best one i ever had was in the mid 80's a desert yellow 540 s limited with the floyd rose locking nut and tremolo.
