Members GuitarAl96 Posted April 8, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 ha thanks guys much appreciatred, and yes i know it is similar to the warrior but i like the cuts better on the ibanez. its preferences i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RaVenCAD Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 I wasn't dogging the Xyphos, I think they're cool. Just saying that Ibanez really didn't have to stretch much on that design. Both remind me of the almighty B.C. Rich Ironbird anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GuitarAl96 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 9, 2010 thanks goodbomb and zantor, but zantor they arent uncomfortable to play sitting down nor up, they fixed the huge neck dive they had with the newere models and the ltd edition ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scifi Metalhead Posted April 9, 2010 Members Share Posted April 9, 2010 The Warrior is one of the most comfortable guitars to play while sitting I've ever tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz i played a friend's Warrior once but the bottom left spike is hard to play over. Maybe im just a fan of double cut guitars or something but yeah. I havent tried a Xiphos but if i do i hope its a 7 string one. What kind of pickups are on that beast you have anyway they look almost like Dimebuckers or something to that extent?

Members GuitarAl96 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 9, 2010 they are dimarzio D activator X's not the crappy d activators. these are very high out put, but they are soooo clean compared to the emg slop that you try to get from a clean sound. im starting to figure out passives = win. but dude you will totally love the xiphos even a 7 string. they are super comfortable between your legs. especially if you play on the neck in classical position. plus i love havin the cut on the top so you can lay the guitar across your chest unlike some guitars in the shape of a z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally i enjoy Duncans such as Invaders I will consider the 7 string then. Especially because it is cheaper than others i have looked at...it only comes down to Ibanez 7321 or Xiphos HNGD again!
