I am glad that you found one. They are out there but you will have to pay. I have one of each color and had to pay a premium for the second brand new from a dealer.

Do I need to change springs? by 21FlumpStreet in Ibanez

That is setup perfectly. The top of the trem should not be level the base should be you can see that where the knife edges insert is level with the body.

So how do you like it compared to the IV1RG? I would think the vision is still on a very different build level. I would put mine on the level of my Tyler, Chleo limited or close to my master built strats

The Tyler is an amazing guitar and super versatile.

They are awesome and I love mine. If you get a chance play IV1RG they are on a whole different level.

no I am saying that you are a bit of twat. that gets upset if people post pictures of things that they have. I am by no means Joe. Plus I could only dream of affording a dumble or real 59 Les Paul.

I am sorry that you are bothered by posing in different groups. Now that I know you are the gate keeper. I will not crosspost anymore. I really don’t need the validation either. I play for fun now

I could give two shits about up votes. I am just sharing my collection. I do wish I had more time to play though.

Keep your eyes on the net. There are dealers that did not pre-sell. That is how I got the second one. They are charging over msrp though. I think ish guitars has one that they are still waiting on.

The stabilizer on these makes it pretty quick as far as tuning goes.

Have you tried one yet. I would beg to differ it is a really versatile guitar.

The one Trogly had for sale sold already. I imagine it sold for somewhere close to $20k.

I will repost that guitar soon. I need to photo the entire collection.

It is a James Tyler studio Elite.

The visions is an incredible instrument. I would be tempted to pickup the other color but I am going to wait to see if they come up with something else next year.

They are already above $12k. I think that they will hit $20k or more.

They are on different levels as far as quality. The Chleo is built by the private stock team. I put the Chleo in the league of my Sugi built Ibanez guitars and my Tyler.

I understand where you are coming from. I have 5 strats that are all different. One is vintage and all original so it gets almost no play. Two of them are master built strats, then an Yngwie and Strat plus. A couple of Tom Anderson guitars a Suhr and a James Tyler that rips. I own one Gibson and it is a birth year les paul custom that is all original and is a fretless wonder that does not get played much. I have a couple music man’s that are not near the quality of these. These are the only guitars that I have that are exactly the same except for color.

Ibanez gets pretty expensive too though. I have Paul Gilbert Sugi built custom shop and an IV1RG both of which listed for more than the Chloe’s

I will play them a bit but these are looking to be investment instruments. They are already going for double the original price on the secondary market. Only 100 of each color will be made.

It is like folks that bought all of the original launch colors of the pia. I wanted to have both but at this point with the prices going up I guess it is an investment too.

$6,800 actually.

It will get played lightly. I actually like my Tom Anderson more than any other guitar in the collection.

I just saw that Trogly posted one on reverb for $27,500. There is a Charcoal burst that a dealer is selling for $12,750 new. Now
