Porn first (The pictures don't illustrate just how offensively green this guitar is)

My camera had a hard time capturing the colour accurately, it was also late at night and under flouro lighting.
I haven't had more than a 10 minute play on it yet, But I'll try to make a quick video for you guys tonight.

And I'll give you a quick review at some point soon too.

Quality seems really good, I have no complaints at all.

Awesome NGD man! Definitely looks radioactive and hope it plays just as hot.

The greens are even better in real life.
From what I've gathered so far; Yes, it fucking shreds.
Action needs to come down just a smidge though.
Very nice tones, although I might chuck a CL/LF combo in there soon, Tossing up whether to get a green and black zebra set or just a straight up black.

I bought an Ibanez Sabre back in 1987,the first year that they came out.It was an awesome guitar.I played every Gilbert,Malmsteen,Vai,MacAlpine lick possible on it until it could not be played anymore.And now it comes in my favorite color.After 25 years I think its time to rekindle that old flame and buy one of these.Nice purchase it looks beautiful.

Dude, do white! I did that in my old S520EX and it looked awesome, really made the lime green pop!

have only had a really quick play. Didn't recieve it till last night and I had to do homework for uni. I'll give a more in depth review and IF you're lucky a quick little video tonight. But I may not, my chops are WAY down at the moment.

I think green and black is in order! That would look killer :agreed:

Dres x I also have a pink RG1XXV on laybuy ;) I'll do a comparison once I have it paid off.

Philligan you might just be right.. although I'm thinking some purple pickups might look totally sweet in this too
