NGD - SSO Meme Guitar Commence

[ThePhilosopher]

I went to trade my under utilized LPs for a Gretsch Chet Akins Tennessee Rose, but got distracted by this cool 7 (which was cheaper than the Gretsch by a couple hundred bucks). After some back and forth, we worked out a deal and I got this wonderful SSO meme classic.

Wait, that's way too thin to house a Gretsch

That's not even close to the same thing.

Wait, don't tell me...


...it's a used prestige

I typically don't like Ibanez necks which is why I tend to avoid them when looking for new guitars; however, this one doesn't feel as thin as the RGs I remember disliking so much. Overall, the thing is damn near mint (though I haven't looked in too much detail) and has a lot of tonal options available with the switching scheme. I also prefer 2-pt style trems with locking tuners over floyd-style (I'm not wholly opposed, but just a preference).

I also noodled on a Fender Kingfish for a bit, I will own or build a clone of that guitar some day; it's pretty cool in its own right.

Awesome NGD!!

I have the 6 string version of that, with the white pickups instead of black. I also have a Premium 7 string AZ which is quickly becoming my favourite guitar in my collection.

How do you like the Hyperion pickups?
