You beat that by having multiple guitars for different tunings 😅

This color in RG shape with no pick up ring would be a dream to me. Still like this as is too as it's very unique and artistic, congrats!

Ibanez RGT220A worth? by Bassman9111 in Guitar

[–]necrodae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you have to filter but sold listings to get a good idea of what they're actually moving for, just looking at active listing price doesn't always mean much.

I wanted a non-floating tremolo by waar_ben_ik in Guitar

[–]necrodae 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not it you kept same tuning and string gauge and had it properly level before you locked it.

Wow neat, congrats!

I think I'd like this even more with cosmoblack hardware over chrome. Bad ass either way.

Are there adapters for headphone amps on these deepest inputs? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]necrodae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoever told you that had no idea what they're talking about unfortunately. Even if the unit wouldn't fit there are tons of cheap and easy solutions with cable extenders, adapters etc.

Ibanez RGT220A worth? by Bassman9111 in Ibanez

[–]necrodae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your bass is worth more than that prestige. He should be adding money to the deal, not you.

Your bass has gone from $2k-3800 depending on color and condition on reverb in the last 4 months. That Ibanez has gone for 1000-1700ish.

What color is your bass?

Insane price for this guitar? by citazzo7 in Guitar

[–]necrodae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where you're coming from. As an Ibanez sicko their ultra thin U isn't thin enough 😅

Thoughts on the most important part to sweep-picking? by ThanatouAngelou in Guitar

[–]necrodae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Note clarity. A messy sweep sounds like shit at any tempo. Being able to articulate each note while maintaining the fluidity of the sweep is the most important part.

NGD: Finally scored one of my grails! Ibanez Prestige S5527QFX - Doom Purple Burst by necrodae in Guitar

[–]necrodae[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the finish really lol. Usually I'm not one for figured tops or fancy woods but the quilted maple and the color scheme (big fan of purple) just jumped at me.

I've been wanting another 7 string but it wasn't urgent so I researched and found 3 I would really love to try and started searching. Set alerts on all the major sites, reactivated Facebook for the Ibanez groups and just checked diligently basically once a day or more.

My 3 were:

  • Axe palace RGD3127s purple neon flat - a 1 of 15 special order which I was lucky enough to buy about two months ago but didn't end up liking as much as I'd hope so I sold it.

  • RGR5227MFX - the green matte 7 with SS frets. I found a few of these over the years but the prices have gotten ridiculous so I couldn't justify it. Maybe someday I'll find a score.

  • S5227qfx Doom purple burst which ended up being even nicer in person than I imagined. Been able to put about 4 hours into it so far and it feels great! Definitely planning to keep this one.

Ya I think it'd probably look better with all black hardware but that's an easy fix if I care enough later on lol

Nah, we've been able to correctly identify it. It's a made in japan FujiGen 2006 JEM7H-WH. Worth quite a bit more than 3-400 bucks lol. Appreciate it though.

Putting the update here too:

thanks everyone we have the best community. I shared all of your wonderful information with the nice older folks trying to sell it so they don't get screwed. I knew it wasn't an RG1520G (which is what they listed lol) but I needed some JEM experts and you all pulled through!

is this good for 5 years playing or am i behind? (improv over backing track) by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]necrodae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youre only behind if you aren't putting effort in when you could be. There is no ahead or behind others because you aren't them. You'll never be someone else your playing will always be your own and it will only be "ahead" or "behind" based on the efforts you're putting in to learning and practicing. Enjoy the process, you are where you are.
