    This guitar is manufactured in Indonesia and it's around 600 bucks. There's a US version, but that things' nearly 2000 bucks, i think...
    Thing is, it depends on the company and how they run things. For ex. Yamaha's high-end instrument factory that makes a lot of the signature models is in China, but the quality control there is superb and the workers there are all highly skilled craftsmen

    Played one at Guitar center yesterday, neck is thin, maybe not Ibanez thin. Felt like a Fender American strat with the C neck shaved thinner (which to me was always Fender's thinnest to begin with).
    Hung out for about 3+ hours there and the winner on the day for playability was the Ibanez Prestige, chords felt like they were being played half by guitar half by me, you know what I mean. Looks like I'm saving up for a Prestige!

  • @anoshinyamo
    @anoshinyamo 13 лет назад

    @tommW13 I guess it depends on songs. My memory is so long time ago so not that certain, but I believe he uses Crybaby wah pedal through Bogner amp, and sometimes Gibson LesPaul. Probably leave wah pedal closed some way to curve the tone like tone knob, and uses LesPaul for fatter or warmer sound. Bogner Fish preamp, which he uses, has got only 3 channel and he is not so effector-guy either, so it seems he makes various tone mostly by picking through that simple equipment.

  • @1946dodge
    @1946dodge 15 лет назад

    Yea Schlagdog, I understand they wanted a replica, but for the money you don't get much. The Tributes are 600 bucks and the American mades over 1000. I just don't see why they don't at least offer the guitar with a neck pickup too. I don't think an extra pickup would change the sound that much.
    Plus you made a good point - they tried to make an exact copy (which means they target the Chains fans) but failed to put the original pickup in it.

  • @1946dodge
    @1946dodge 15 лет назад

    Good point. I just wouldn't want one because I am not a big fan of using the extra bright bridge pickup all the time. But come to think of it, I guess more pickups would change the tone.

  • @bloodbuitro

  • @anoshinyamo
    @anoshinyamo 13 лет назад

    @tommW13 I believe this setup is saying that simply Jerry almost never uses other than rear pickup and volume knob throughout his play.
    Having less circuit in guitar contributes to wider range, especially in high end. It helps to prevent the tone to get muddy, and to cut through clearer in band sound. And the more mass and weight the body has the sound become fatter and heavier.
    Also maybe looking different, or by having only 1 pickup, makes cool sometimes, too.=)
