*cosmetics- not the best on offer
*comes with hard case- thumbs up!

BOSS Fender '59 Bassman/ '65 Deluxe Reverb (List: $400)

 

[subversion]

Davis now has the matched pair/ set Duncans in stock, eg: $165 for the JB/ Jazz set

new @ swee lee:

Ibanez AWD102
List: $1,250

 

[emg-rocks]

im not really a big fan of ibanez. but the Ibanez AWD102 is damn chiooooooooo!

 

[moggie_54]

Yo Subversion.. Juz off the topic.. Is the XPT700 worth buying?

If not.. Can you recommend me guitar for metal / rock genre? I'm looking for other guitar shapes as well.. Example are the Flying-V, Explorer or other nice guitar shapes too..

 

[subversion]

the Xiphos is a good guitar tone-wise (Dimarzios!!). unlike its RG siblings, the finished neck is a hit/ miss, depends on personal appeal.

that shape IMO impedes the picking hand. more in the upcoming review... 8)

[keithC]

[subversion]

the swee lee thread would invite the right replies to this query, agree?

 

[suckasucks]

wonder if the LU tuner is really TB.

new @ Davis:

ESP George Lynch GL-56
List: $2,400

 

[JamesChia]

relic guitars are so lame. i'll rather leave the relic-ing to myself.

 

[Breen]

the George Lynch kinda looks like the Hiriam Bullock strat from Aria with the humbucker and all....
