Looks fishy.

I was browsing ebay as I do every morning with coffee. No coffee today because someone forgot to make another pot

LGM USA CUSTOM SHOP 7 Seven String Guitar Ibanez RG Electronics | eBay

Looks REALLY fishy to me.

 

[skeels]

Ooo it's got DOT inlays!

 

[leandroab]

And why is that?

 

[supercolio]

Hmm. Not sure if fake. Ugly as butt though. Neon green *EWW*

 

[AVWIII]

LGM is a real company. I thought they had gone under, but rumour has it Patrick Sims (who made his name, good or bad, making RG copies all the live-long day) owns the rights now.
A quick google search for this guitar came up with this thread:
LGM Guitars - Scorpion, Python, Dragon & Leviathan - The Gear Page
So it's real.

Looks fishy??? Whats fishy about it?? I don't understand why you think something isn't right about it.

What I do know is that is a fucking cool green!!!

 

[skeels]

I think perhaps the o p just feels that it is overpriced for what it is.

I know I do.

DOTS!

 

[SpaceDock]

Lgm's are supposed to be really nice, so I don't think it's overpriced.

Lets see.... Korina body, seymour duncan blackouts, original floyd rose, plek'd frets, and a hard shell case... Made in america.


How EXACTLY is it "over priced"?

Agreed ^
I thought it was kinda fishy because I had never heard of them, but its legit.

Wasn't there a bit of a shitstorm with him?

Ok..

Blackouts- 160$
OFR- 200$
Case-75$
Neck-?$
Body-?$
Plek-?$

Total -1600$?

I'm sure it's very nice...

Perhaps the op does not think that this guitar is overpriced.

Perhaps I found it amusing that for a 1600 dollar guitar they were proud that it has dot inlays.

Are you trolling, or this dumb?

You;re also very incorrect/ignorant on some costs here

- Go get a quote for a handbuilt custom case, and get back to me.
- Getting your guitar plek'd is a 4-500$ process.
- Korina is VERY expensive to get and its VERY difficult to use because its so toxic.
- an OFR-7 set is closer to 350. The bridge itself is over 200, then you add in studs, nut, and springs n stuff.


Guess who ever bought one of these is a complete moron for getting a 1500$+ guitars with simple dot inlays...

 

[JaeSwift]

Lots of high end, expensive guitars have dot inlays. If it's handmade (or atleast hand finished) and has a PLEK job (which will run you 250 euros) it's a pretty decent price.

That said, it has the sims stench on it so I wouldn't touch it with a 10 ft pole.

 

[skeels]

Super custom neck!
Flawless frets!
Custom body!
Custom paint!
Custom electronics!

...


DOTS!


My sincerest apologies for finding some humor in this posting.

Also, thank you for helping educate me as to the cost of those things I was unsure of (the ? 's) and the things I was incorrect /ignorant about.

Maybe I AM dumb...

 

[technomancer]

Sims bought the LGM name, it's legit... or as legit as things get with Sims

Being sold by the guy who seems to be Sim's biggest shill these days.
