      +Stardust_456 I was wondering the same and it turns out the guy is 6'4"

    • @Stardust_456
      @Stardust_456 8 лет назад +6

      I was going to buy it but I realized that he's a lot bigger than me (as I'm 5'3" and a girl) and the neck would be WAAAYYY too wide.

    • @kzrrz
      @kzrrz 8 лет назад +2

      Stardust_456 I'd encourage you to try one first, I've several Ibbys and the neck width is very good overall,

      @Stardust_456 8 лет назад

      Amir Zakahev There's an Ibanez then there's this beast xD
      I've tried several Ibanez guitars out but all of them were either too heavy or the neck was too uncomfortable. Right now I use a Gibson L6-S 1976 edition and a Peavy AT-200

    • @conor.mo_1239
      @conor.mo_1239 8 лет назад +92

      It might be the mask that makes it more noisey, otherwise he's just an generally unhealthy bloke

      +I drown in pussy I understand that I'm probably being rude towards Mick but I never said he was fat, just that he was unhealthy, I mean I'm skinny as fuck but I can't jog 100 meters without feeling like I'm going to die. But yeah whatever I'm probably being ignorant towards something I said.

    • @RasmusYde
      @RasmusYde 10 лет назад +8

      I remember reading somewhere that he's a really really shy person, so I'm guessing that putting him in the spotlight for an interview could make him quite nervous, thus breathing heavily.
      I can totally relate to that since I'm also quite shy and hate being put in focus like that, with the exception of going on stage to play guitar.

    • @jameso98

    • @KFieLdGaming
      @KFieLdGaming 9 лет назад +16

      I can agree from a purely visual/aesthetics standpoint, but playing a natural/oiled/satin finish neck, is so much more comfortable than playing a glossed up painted one. Especially after you've gone 30 minutes in a set, and your hands are covered in sweat.

    • @alexphillips9779
      @alexphillips9779 9 лет назад +1

    Well, the one thing I loved about the BC Rich was the "HATE" inlays on the fretboard. I'm gonna get that put onto my car.

    Jim is to Mick as Jeff is to Kerry. Both solo and both do equal amount of work.

    This is my favourite shape - RG shred machine shape :) It's a great guitar - played one like this in Australia and a black one (MTM1) in South Africa. I prefer this one over the MTM100.
