Amazing looking guitar!
The pickup rings do take up a lot of visual space. However, they hardly take away from how nice the guitar is! How would you fill the holes? I'm having the same debate with my own guitar which has crappy, cheap pickup rings. .
What your take on the quality of...
The key point is that pickups, wood, strings, the guitar, the amp, the cables are meaningless. Literally all sounds come from the fingers.
When I play air guitar, I sound bad-ass brother.
Depending on the configuration of the guitar (and the weight, etc.), a neck angle can feel really "off". My Charvel has a neck angle and I quite like it' but on some other guitars I've played it just feels a bit strange to me.
I've also gotten a bit pickier about scale lengths over time. I love...
This is a good point, and I would assume that I'm not! I'm going to give it another go over the weekend and review some material on floyd setups. It has been a very long time (5-6 years) since I've actually owned a guitar with one.
To Max's comment -- I think I had a fundamental...
I recently bought Ibanez RGD2127z! The purchase itself had some drama but it is a pretty sweet 7 string.
I am, however, getting totally getting owned trying to set the guitar up.
My normal recipe for restringing a Floyd Rose (when changing tuning/string gauges) is:

Man, the GMW website rocks haha. I'll shoot Marty an email and see what he says!
In terms of contacting a local paint shop, what sort of finishes are they generally using? I imagine automotive stuff needs to be pretty rugged.
Howdy everyone,
I'm curious who has had guitars refinished lately. I have an Ibanez I'd like to get repainted in a sparkle finish. Ideally, I could get the headstock refinished to match as well.
Sims custom shop has a nice website -- I seem to recall them getting flack a long time ago for the...
It won't be great for fast stuff that needs a very articulated sound on the B-string. You would need incredible picking technique to make it work.
Sounds pretty cool for high volume, heavy chugging through!
I'm sorry this happened to you man. Totally sucks.
To add a random story to the mix, I've been swamped with work and had a guitar that desperately needed a setup. I figured, I'll shop around and get it set up and eat the fee. The guitar is a Charvel with a Floyd.
After searching around, I find...
Normally, I'm also not a big fan. But, have you tried mixing fresh Mozzarella with some sliced tomato and basil? Add a little salt, pepper, drizzle of olive oil. Mama mia!
