    SuperHappyNDG: Ibanez S5527 (the trem version)

    I'll never (probably) buy another guitar again if Ibanez puts piezo on this dream guitar. Hell, I'll pony up the cash for the J Custom if need be. :lol: Probably will never happen, though. I don't even remember the last time Ibanez put piezo on a guitar, maybe 15 years ago? :lol::lol::lol:

    Unfortunately (or fortunately!) I already own an S5527 haha. Congrats on your new acquisition, by the way!

    Put Prestige on there, and I might buy it. Can't beat dat used Prestige value! :lol:

    Dream Theater

    Some amazing songs, and some confusing ones. As with all Dream Theater records, I find that repeated listenings help me enjoy their compositions more. For example, I was pretty apprehensive towards the title track at first, but after listening to it a few more times, I'm starting to enjoy it...

    Does potential future release count? Because I'm been waiting for an Ibanez S 7-string with trem and no pickup rings for half a decade now. :lol::lol::lol:

    Petrucci 8 String Possibility? IT DOES EXIST!

    I thought Petrucci did a pretty good job with the 8-string, considering he did basically the same thing when he first recorded with the 7-string. :lol:

    SuperHappyNDG: Ibanez S5527 (the trem version)

    I have the same guitar, and it's certified awesome, indeed! I love the S shape so much, but Ibanez is reducing the 7-string option on this line year after year... :noplease::shrug: *Patiently waiting for a new 7-string S with trem and no pickup rings* :pray::pray::pray:

    My attempt at The Alien by Dream Theater. A great opener to the new album, I think!

    What Do You Want to See More of in the ERG Market?

    I would like to see an 8-string floating trem guitar that can flutter like a 6-string and tune quickly like a fixed bridge. How long do I have to wait? :lol:

    new AxePalace RG2027XLS Limited Run (Satin Silver)

    I'm loving these special Ibanez dealer runs. Now only if they can get another 7-string lo-pro edge with a chameleon finish... :bowdown:

    Ibanez RG8=Good first 8 string?

    Ditto for Agile. My first 8-string guitar is a used Interceptor 828 I picked up for $400 about 7-8 years ago, and the quality is decent. The neck has a slighty thicker profile than the Ibby's, and the body has some weight to it, being Mahogany and all. The 28" scale length does make bending the...

    Ibanez 2019 New Stuff

    Hahaha, yeah they should move the neutral point to around 7th or 8th fret for sure. Only if the Strandberg wasn't so expensive... :lol:
