Travis Posted December 7, 2007 Posted December 7, 2007 Ibanez RG7420 7 string, with a kick butt custom paint job (pink with purple metal flake). It has had the neck cavity, switch and knob holes filled so it is a single humbucker, single volume rock machine. It's loaded with a DiMarzio Evo 7 which completely screams, and stays very tight on the low B. No case, & I will disassemble to ship. I'm putting the value at $350. The only issue with it is if you hold the guitar at just the right angle, you can see where the neck cavity was filled and I can palpate the impression where the filler recessed a tiny bit. But, I guarentee that from 5 feet away you can't see it. And I can't get an accurate pic of it either. Why am I getting rid of it? The Wizard neck is too thin for me. My hand actually starts going to sleep after a few minutes of playing it. I switch to my 6 string guitars with fat necks and I've got no problems. Here's a couple of pics. More on request.
Travis Posted December 7, 2007 Author Posted December 7, 2007 A buddy of mine from the Jackson Charvel Forum owns an auto restoration shop down in southern Missouri. He found the guitar in a pawn shop, did the work and sold it to me. His paint work is flat out amazing, but like I said, the neck pickup area has sunk down just a tiny bit where it was filled.
Scooter Posted December 7, 2007 Posted December 7, 2007 I know what you mean about the thin necks. I get very arthritic in the base of the thumb when playing on shredder guitars.
unfun 75 Posted December 8, 2007 Posted December 8, 2007 That's one of those guitars that I wish I needed, but don't. Very cool!
Travis Posted December 9, 2007 Author Posted December 9, 2007 Everybody needs a pink 7 string at least once in their lives. If it had a fat neck, I'd be keeping it.
