Ibanez J custom has been always my dream guitar. One day I‘ll buy it and rock it 🤟
@austrianpickingpower14 күн бұрын
oh yahhh i can remember how badly I wanted that guitar and believe me, the day I bought it I stopped buying new guitars over and over. If it´s possible for you - buy it soon!

Cool Ibanez. I had one, but I sold it because... he is very heavy. Now I bought myself an ESP Horizon E-2. Very satisfied.

totally understand that, the ibanez RG´s are heavy but nothing compared with an original Les Paul

@@austrianpickingpower I have had many RG guitars, but the J. Custom is the heaviest. Les Paul Standard is only slightly heavier.

I had my J.Custom almost two years and still going strong and feels better to play after putting some miles on it. That rust on the bridge is small I have seen much worse were the bridge was discolored and bridge pickup bobbins were completely rusted on a fairly new J.Custom someone’s sweat was real acid compared to sweat.

oh that sounds fine, I always thought that I´m the only one with that rusty issue but in this case it makes me happy that other people have the same problems. I feel pieceful with it but it keeps me away of buying the most expensive Custom RG´s

love the video.great guitar.proves my point.quality and reliability comes at a price.if it has been your No1 this long it deserves re fretting and any other care it needs.

thank you, that confirms my plan to refret the guitar and invest into a new bridge next year

Looks like a leveling is good enough for it. No need to refret it yet. The hardware discoloration is common with cosmo chrome hardware or black nickel.

Thanks for your opinion, so far it doesn´t affect the sound so I´m fine with it :)
