I went shopping today and got these things: * various sandpapers ( 100/180/320/400 gritt) * sanding block * soldering iron * masking tape * some fancy working gloves I also reassembled the bridge, unsoldered the pickups and taped the other electronics into the cavity so that they wont...

thanks, tomorrow I'm going to go shopping for sandpaper and a soldering iron and some tung oil. Oh, and here's what I've done the last hour. A filthy bridge a filthy disassembled bridge yes it's a real EDGE trem ! my weapon of choice dirty saddle / clean saddle and here are all the...

omg that looks amazing :o Did you use tung oil to achieve that dark finish?

no wait, you're right, it is the ground wire, cause the other one is broke :p okay tomorrow I'm going to buy myself a soldering iron , and I will disconnect the pickups from the switch and tone knobs, that seems to be the smartest way to do it so :lol: *edit* would it be smart/safe of me to...

the thing is, there already is a long black cable connected to the bridge piece that is screwed into the body.

okay, I've already disassembled the guitar, and I got myself a mystery to unsolve. When I loosened the tone/volume pots and the 5 way switch I noticed that I have one wire that isn't connected to anything. I checked the Ibanez HSH wiring diagram and I can't figure out if it was connected...

Hello fellow guitarists, Last year I saved this 1997 Ibanez RG548 NTM for only € 350. When I got it, I didn't look that good, the finish was full of scratches and a few small dings, the cavities were filled with a white funges-like substance, and the electronics and hardware were dirty as...

I prefer mine ^^

great playing, very clean, you made me an instant fan of this band :p I hope Corellia picks you, I love your sound and gear so.

Yeah, I was also thinking about the orange one, but I prefer the blue one. I used to have a mirage blue RG1570 of which I wished it was more blue then sparkly :p this is the perfect replacement ^^ ( also I love the fact that it still has the edge pro bridge)

Hey everyone, Tomorrow I'm selling my Ibanez RGR08LTD, because it's not very versatile. (only one blackout pup, no tone knob) But since I also have the guitar acquisition syndrome like most users here, I'm already looking for a replacement guitar. Currently I'm gassing for a Ibanez...

To be honest, they just look like Ibanez S guitars with colored inlays, what else makes them so special?

I sounds like an amazing guitar, I don't think there's anything you can improve about it :p

Yeah, it got the sponge back out and started doing circles, I looks way better, too bad I can't show you guys, because my camera doesn't really show the difference :p

Okay I attacked the back of the guitar with a moist sponge and the result is pleasing, the finish is less glossy and it feels really smooth, almost satin like. But I think it did leave marks , when I look at the finish closely I see real small stripes, going in the direction I rubbed with the...

I think I'm going to try the scotch brite way first and see how that goes, if I'm not happy about the result I might try the gloss to satin conversion with 400 gritt, and if I'm still not happy I'll go all the way down to bare wood and apply a satin finish. Can you apply a satin finish with a...

Yeah, but non of the nicks on it are mine + I don't like the glossyness of the finish :lol:

Hello sevenstring.org, About a few months ago I bought a second handed sweet Ibanez RG548NTM which I love to brag about and showoff with. :lol: I absolutely love everything about the guitar, except that damn glossy finish. The guitar would look so much more classy without it, the ash...

^ Damn that roadstar of you, now I want one too. :lol: Anyway here's my guitarhistory, starting in the year 2005. My first guitar was a Squier Stratocaster, which I don't have any pictures of anymore. It was also the first guitar I have tried to modify, and fail miserable. I ordered a...

Lol yeah , also the lack of pickup rings and tacky inlays. :yesway:
