Can't say I dig the random red knob but that's an easy fix. Looks tasty otherwise.

Nice specs for the price! I'd do a quick swap and change the red knob to white so it matches the pickups.

They got rid of the blade switch, too... the only reason they don't have the plastic is because they're using a 3-way toggle instead. That's unfortunately (for some) a necessity given how the S is designed.

Yep,and I'm totally fine with that,I like the toggle switch if it kicks that black plastic out of the show:fawk:

I honestly think this is a POS.
Meh pups, bleah knob, silly bridge...I wonder if it's even worth to buy and mod it...as there are better options and for that price you'll be really lucky to get a good figure on the top like the one in the pic.

And...Ibanez has much mooooooooooaaaaaar better players deserving a signature.
Honestly...bah...I'm so perplexed by this guitar.

Never heard of him, never heard of the band, but I'd rock it, wonky red knob and all

Meh pickups? It's a tried and true EMG set. If you can't get those sounding good, you're doing something wrong. :lol:

I mean, I'd love if it came with my personal favorite pickup combo, but it's not my sig.

Not seeing how a simple to replace knob and a pretty solid bridge makes this a "POS" either, care to elaborate?

Make this a multiscale 8 string with strandberg* boden body, hipshot hardware, BKP aftermaths and I'll be all over this thing.

i can see how a lot of people aren't into this guitar but this is pretty cool from ibanez IMO, launching a mini signature run out of nowhere, makes me optimistic for the sort of stuff we could see in the future if the company continues to take this route.

i was on the fence about buying one of these but the reverse headstock pushed me over. just pulled the trigger and was having some checkout problems, I couldn't get it to go through, but after reloading the screen I got a confirmation email and the guitar now seems to be out of stock so I guess i snagged the last one (assuming the checkout wasn't an error lol).

the last thing i need is another ibanez but oh well that's the way she goes.
