[skarhead]

My buddy just sent me the links over :


here's the discussion about those on the jemsite :

Now i'd like to point out the best and the worst

There are two winners this year :

the NEW MICK THOMPSON SIG


http://www.thomann.de/gb/ibanez_mtm2_bk.htm

Damn cheap, knowing the price differences it'd be like 500$ in the states - not bad , fixed bridge , no inlays , bound neck , mahogany body ...


and the Rg 2610 which we talked about in a separate thread

Ibanez Warrior :

altough not really superb looking but neck through ... could be nice


Losers :

am i the only one that finds it FUGLY ?

8 string :

http://www.thomann.de/gb/ibanez_rg2228_gk.htm

with this pricetag and no huge name's/brands pushing the sales 'cept for meshuggah i doubt it'd sell very well.

Korn 7 :

and I disliked the old one ... the old model compared to this one had CLASS


PS. mods sorry for posting a link to one of our euro distributors but i don't have any connection with them - just wanted to provide better pics than those on jemsite ( click the pics btw )

that warrior shaped one is fucking UGLY!!! realy.. it looks so wrong.

and i think it will have a set neck

[CharvelRocker]

The Mick Thompson sig does nothing for me. The RG2610 has me drooling, but what the hell makes it so expensive? I'd love to see a cheaper one. The Warrior one looks like their old Axstar in a way. The next one looks like the ugly love child of a Firebird and an Iceman. That 8 string looks like the neck is as big as a 6 string bass, and is ugly to boot. The new KoRn sig is also ugly. The first one at least looked decent but wasn't my thing.

[AfterForever]

Some of my thoughts..

1. The sevenstring S serie is back!!! That rules.
2. The new Korn is ugly, hopefully the old models will go cheaper from now one.
3. the 8 string is interesting.. I don't think it'll sell, but I'd love to try one

[slayer32390]

none of them really do much for me, except the 8 string has me really interested just because of the novelty factor.

take a look at the jemsite pics and take time to go through a couple of pages of this thread.

Noone commented the Ibanez V's yet

The Warrior looking one is the Trey Azagatoth signature I believe.

Sure about that ?

i know that this guy from Necrophagist is going to play them - last time i saw Trey he was using his old Ironbird and new WRXT

Where did you hear the rumours?

[pagemalicious]

Muhammed from Necrophagist designed the guitar for Ibanez. So no, it's not a Trey signature. I'm already saving up for one, I think it looks awesome

[sk8boardbob2]

My mistake it is Muhammed. I glanced this pic and mistook it for Trey who also plays warrior shape guitars.

i think it's a sorry excuse for a warrior...



oh about the V's
the shape looks GREAT! no, realy! it just needs that ibanez 3+3 headstock, better fretboard wood and a trem (or maybe kahler ) but the shape alone is great

[max]

They should make more black guitars with basswood bodies and rosewood fretboards. :/



And somehow that 8-string looks totally retarded.

[sakeido]

That 8 string looks sweet. I definitely wouldn't spend $3000 plus on one of those, but I would love to mess around on one!

[Szostak]

Wow, the new Thomson model is really cheap... I think i might snag one!

[skarhead]

yup - that's why i'm liking the Thompson aswell - 500 eur is cheap for Europe for a (should be ) good fixed bridge guitar - and the looks are acceptable now.

"That 8 string looks sweet. I definitely wouldn't spend $3000 plus on one of those, but I would love to mess around on one!"

I think that the price in the US will be more like 1500$ because it seems like the prices in US and Europe are the same - only we change the Dollar Signs for Euro signs but the amount stays the same
