Still gutted I waited too long to order one of those Axepalace cherry blossoms, awesome guitars

Solid necro bump! Did not know this thread existed and will be sifting through it after work!

Oh- and congratulations! Probably should have started my post with that statement . Looking forward to the NGD post!

I'll get around to a proper NGD thread some day but now that I'm past the honeymoon phase all I'll say for now is that this is my new daily driver

Standard tuning for right now, I am debating on putting a Lundgren Black Heaven or SD Jupiter in the bridge though

My RGA8420-PRF. Haven't seen many of these in the wild but it's an incredible guitar

DEAR LORD.

The GAS is strong with me. I have a set of Jupiters and a Hyperswitch coming for this thing and I may have also snagged a UV777P for $980 shipped today...

That's a damn good deal on that UV. Consider me jealous!

The J Custom is begging to be fr00ted out since it already has those knobs.

The middle pickup will get a pink cover to match my RGR570

That’s it… I’ve now seen the top of the mountain, and it is good.

 

[thrashcomics]

Ugh. Seller cancelled the UV sale. Maybe realized how bad a deal they made.

First, this is lovely. So pink, almost looks like it would rub off on your hands.
Second, please fix your A string at the saddle. It's driving me nutz.

My two prestige’s, with some mods.

My rgd7ucs I’ve swapped in a set of bare knuckle impulse pickups with a push/pull for the volume knob to split pups.

My Rg2027xl I just swapped in a set of bare knuckle juggernauts, dropped in gotoh locking tuners, and blocked the bridge.

How much do you guys know about the 24.75" RGs Ibanez puts out sometimes under the J Custom brand? I'm wondering whether there's any way to systematically look for those, or if it's a matter of cataloguing all the known models they've built.

Is it normal for a J Custom to not have markings in the neck pocket?
