The Ibanez 7 Club!

[max-streich]

I finally can enter the club as well. (sorry no pictures yet. I try to upload some later)

I have a question I have a rg 2550z as well and this one weighs 3,5 kg but my rg 1527z is noticeably lighter (body) it weighs about 3 Kg? is this normal?

Still here, still craving a 1527M. Effin GAS.

count me in, looks nice with white D-Activators

Now THAT is how a white guitar should look

Add me to the club! Just got mine a couple days ago and love it!

I have no camera though...Unless you want silly cell phone pictures ha!

I wanted to be in the cool-guy club but my guitar is dusty and my photographs are blurry EMG81-7 and 60-7, OFR Trem Arm

Does buying a 7420 body allow me to add to this thread??? please??

Am sat at work today done fcuk all as I am waiting for this cheeky little thing to arrive

Brought it Wednesday as the start of a project, its a 7420 body with routed lion claw and the Jem handy handle to carry it round Tesco's, the swirl is by Alan at Out of this Swirled.com. Gotta be honest I am not a huge swirl fan but the pics make this look fcuking awesome I think, so I cannot wait for this to arrive in the flesh!!!

As the buy was a bit spur of the moment I ain't had much thought bout what to do with it yet, the main concern at the moment is getting a neck, do I scour the web for one (a 7620 or 7420 or I am assuming any 7 string AANJ Ibby Neck will fit??) or just get a custom one made... Anyway once I got the body I'll stick a proper build thread up with my plans.

Btw check his site out when I spoke to him bout the body asked him bout the winding up of the site and he said it was due to lack of sales for a while but since he announced he was closing its gone mad!

Still waiting...... C'mon Parcel Force!!!! Where are you?!?

Guys I'm having a dilemma.

I've been offered a straight up trade for my ltd mh-417 for a 7321 with a CL + LF set with sperzal tuners.

IM SO EXCITED I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO.

 

[Konfyouzd]

I was wondering why I hadn't seen this yet... It's new

Burn victim #1:

 

[synrgy]

In case nobody is sick of seeing it yet

Mods = Lundgren M7 in bridge, Graph Tech String Saver Saddles, Hipshot bridge (not installed at time of photos), custom mirror pickguard, truss cover, cavity cover. Replaced all pots and the switch, too. Oh, and there's the 'Om Mani Padme Hum' decal under the bridge and again on the back, both in mirror.

 

[Konfyouzd]

What, no neons yet? Those are d-activators in it.

Konfyouzd cares not about your neon pickups...

What up w/ that neck? Is that one of those stick on vine inlays or is that the real deal Holyfield?

 

[OrsusMetal]

I had the body planed down and a flame maple top added.
Hipshot bridge retrofitted since it wasn't a direct swap.
Gotoh tuners added
Fretboard dyed black
Headstock got flame maple cap
Reshaped the cutaways, belly contour and neck joint
Tone knob removed
Flushmount straplocks added

 

[Konfyouzd]

thanks! I painted the bridge myself, I paint everything, I'm outta control, hahaha..

Painted bridge looks dope, man. It looked funny to me in the zoomed out pic but looks VERY clean in the closer one.

 

[aleXander]

That's awesome looking dude!!! Of course You're in this thread!

EDIT: You'll want to find a 7620 neck. There's no such thing as a 7420 neck ^^
Any other questions you can ask any of us on here and we'll be glad to help

thanks chap! Still not arrived yet so not offically in this thread yet! haha! gotta go weekend without so very grumpy right now...

I was just reading the Ibanez model list thread & that said they had 7620 necks, case at the moment of what I can find really, if it goes bit too long without sourcing a used neck then Ill go with a custom one.

I'm still figuring this whole forum thing out. How do I edit the thread name?

Next to the first post in this thread, there is a button where you can choose to edit the whole message. There you'll be able to edit the name of this topic

GAS hit me hard. First one needs some work. Haven't been able to play it besides to checkout the electronics. Waiting on parts and the time to set it up. Snagged another one off Fleabay.

Yep those are inlay stickers you can buy off ebay, 20$ and still good as new. They've tricked a few people

Wow Orsus, this has got to be one of my favorite RG7321's ever, it looks great. Just wondering, is the that a binding around the guitar or just the natural colour of the top?

 

[Miek]

Jesus Christ that's amazing. How's the stability on the neck joint? It looks like it'd be just fine, but the bolts might stick out a little.
