Description
I've had this guitar for quite some time... I figured I'd finally get some good photo's of it.It's a customised Ibanez RG350EX. EMG pickups, sunburst blue paint and a mirror scratch plate. A $1000 guitar now worth nearly $4000.

I'm waiting to have enough money to customize my RG7321, and I have a few things left to do on my RG370DX.
Great job you've done on yours, I love the sunburst.

Do you customise your guitars yourself? If so that's great. I got mine done by someone else, who I must say did an excellent job.
I've never seen a sunburst blue like this (it's actually a lot brighter than it appears in this picture because of the lighting). It's a great feeling knowing that you have a unique guitar.

I customized one guitar, an old one that cost me 350. But got my 2 Ibanez's done pro. I don't trust myself with them, I love them so much.
Need to get stronger springs in the 370 because I stretched them with the trem blocked and now it rattles like you wouldn't beleive. Also want an fsk101 in the neck and an emg81 in the bridge.
And the pickups on the 7321 are shockingly dull.
Unfortunatly just need the money.

Kewl. I've got the KH-202. Its a lot cheaper, but has cooler in-lays in my opinion. Also, I see that you like Satriani. Look Up PAUL GILBERT. He taught Buckethead how to play.
BTW How many frets?

I saw this guitar about a year before I bought it, and I promised myself I would get it some day. Yeah, Satriani, Gilbert, Buckethead, Vai, Morse, Moore, Mongrain, Emmanuel, Petrucci, the list goes on!

Hm.. from what I can remember it was something like 60 bucks? Custom though, was hand cut. I could be way off though lol.

Gorgeous. What did you modify to warrant the three grand price hike?

Well a lot of the money went towards getting the EMG pickups, which had to be shipped from America. Then the paint job was also not a cheap one. There was a lot of tweaking in the whole guitar to make it play like a top of the line Ibanez. I spent only an extra $1100 on it, but the place where I got it done was quite cheap to begin with.
