Hi from Australia.. soon to be a UV7 owner

[ibanezfreak777]

Hi
Thought id introduce myself... Im a long time member of Jemsite, and only just ghosted ss.org for a while

Been playing guitar for almost 20 years, and am currently in a band writing original music (Metal)


My most recent claim to fame is getting to Jam with Steve Vai on stage which probably got me gassing for the UV



I just pulled the trigger on a near mint UV7 Silver Dot... yet to arrive

I own many rare Ibanez guitars, but never a Universe or a Jem for that matter..



Pics of the 7 string soon to come...

For now here is my current harem of ladies

I would shit my pants if I had to jam with Vai, stellar playing man

Hi, those are Ibanez J Custom Rg Paint1 and RG Paint 2.... They were created as a set, kinda like Hot and cold.. All factory finishes by some Japanese Artist that Ibanez got in specially for it, and limited to 18 each..

Its a technique of multiple layers of paint and then sanding back parts of the finish which shows the colors underneath etc... interacts nicely with UV lights also..

I love em

Some old family shots...
Will update them when i get my new UV7 and im also waiting on another USA Custom

In this shot you can see when I had 2 of the same blue Paints, that they are different, as they are hand done

Yeah im a big believer in more colorfull guitars.. You can still play metal and enjoy color

The finishes on those rgs you talk of are a factory made J Custom. Some Artist Ibanez got to make 18 only of each color. Basically its paint with 3 different colors and then sanded back showing the otehr colors underneath and clear coated... Also interacts with UV lights... I should do a photo shoot with UV lights soon...

Cheers

definitely do that
