Members -Assy- Posted August 14, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 14, 2009 someoen else already did, and they did a real {censored} job, and he got the guitar really cheap because of it, so we want it back to an original, or close to original color.

Members NashSG Posted August 14, 2009 Members Share Posted August 14, 2009 What is funny is it just like today, where they show the guy playing the guitar in a color you can't buy. I think the White looks the best of those colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Crunchtime Posted August 14, 2009 Members Share Posted August 14, 2009 I thought Alex used to play the Ibanes Radius, the basis for the Satriani Sig model. I believe orange was an common finish for this model. I would go with the Desert Yellow ala F Gambale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played the S540LTD for a long time, as well as an RG or two IIRC.Later, he played the GR (Ghostrider) series for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fusion1 Posted August 16, 2009 Members Share Posted August 16, 2009 Guitar pictured looks like the stock but very rare color from 1988/1989 Fire-Alarm Red (really a vivid orange color). I have the earlier 540 Power guitar (think Joe Satriani's Not of This Earth album cover and he is playing a white HSS model) and mine is Fire-Alarm Red and it is the ultra rare triple coil humbucker in bridge. Coolest color ever for guitar and too bad they abandoned it so early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
