He switched to Ibanez in 1995, I believe.
I talked to Dino yesterday and he said Ibanez is considering making the 7 string Xiphos a production model.

Can anyone even see a pickup selector on Dino's Xiphos? It looks like he just has a volume knob.
I would so get a fucking Xiphos 7 if/when they come out.

I'd be all over an XPT7. 
I'd bite on that in a 7, hell yeah. Pickup selector looks kinda wierd down there if that is indeed it. Could aways use a push/push or push/pull on the volume for pickup selection ala Lynch guitars if you wanna keep it clean looking without knobs in wierd places.

goddamn dino is one of the best rythym players ive seen hes got awsome picking chops
Shit, that would be fucking amazing if Dino sent me one.
You might be right, Sebastian, it probably was 1996. I'm gonna pre-order the album as soon as I'm done here.

Dunno if this has been mentioned but Mohamed from Necrophagist has a LACS seven-string Xiphos as well, black I believe. Saw the pictures somewhere over at the Jemsite.

^Yep, that one is pretty awesome too.
I've already said to my fiancee that if they make a Xiphos 7 with a reverse headstock I'm buying it. She's 100% happy about that too, as she think's Dino's & Mohammed's look cool. I love that woman sooo much!
Yep, someone posted that pic here too.

Someone should PM the thread location to the guys that run the Ibanez forum. Supposedly, the net demand for the RG8 pushed it into production. 
that is tight as fuck, I generally stick to strat shapes (I've owned 1 LP copy in 20 years, the rest strat shapes), but I'd buy that, can't decide if I like it in black or Dino red better

jet black would be cool, flat black just looks blah

And the net sales of the RG8 will put it out of production next year and it'll be the last time Ibanez listens to consumer demand.

Remember Ibanez discontinued the Universe for a year due to poor sales. Get a big band behind the 8 string and it'll take off.
