Where did you find it? It reminds me a little of my early 90's Charvel.

Very nice! Is that a Floyd Rose or Kahler whammy? I remember they came stock, but I can’t remember which brand.
- Ibanez Edge Pro, custom for this model with all non-locking parts.ismith

A million years of google searching, a MySpace friend request, and a bunch of states over (Louisiana). I like Charvels, considered getting a DeMartini model and routing it for a YJM in the neck. Too much to buy one new though atm...

who cares... guitars *yawn*

May I suggest, if you are buying old guitars, don’t EVER drill or route the body. It basically kills any re-sale value.
- I only care about playability- I considered scalloping this guitar but it plays well enough flat.ismith
- haha. I guess that’s an argument we shouldn’t get into then!MrOneHundred
- Probably not ;) I make good money scalloping though, do it to a lot of collector's guitars.ismith
- * whinces
(sorry!)MrOneHundred - Haha, well we all have our differences.ismith
- hehe. We do indeed.MrOneHundred

God. Wasn't that the Vinnie Moore model? I had a 1986 RG550 that I fucking just gave away to some kid back in the late 90's. Literally - said "Here kid, take this..." You couldn't even sell a fucking Ibanez after Nirvana hit. Now it's like all these 18 year olds want ibanez's - I'm fucking kicking myself....I saw the same guitar I gave away in a shop last week for $1800.
- everything that goes around comes around.MrOneHundred
- So you got something to give me?TheBlueOne
- Yep, I'd kill to get the splatter model VM-1. Grunge really wore out the shred scene...ismith

I'm sorry. But that's a really boring looking guitar, from a really fallow period in guitar history.
Good luck with it!

- I have to say I don't like basswood one bit, but they are some sharp guitars.ismith
- See, I do like basswood for the most part...TheBlueOne
- I bought that guitar the same day I met my wife, and both came from Nagoya, Japan. :)TheBlueOne
