Members hardtdc Posted December 28, 2006 Members Share Posted December 28, 2006 Originally posted by Radiohead, lol Thanks!I love how these old Ibanezs play, the necks are real nice.The two I have now sound pretty good, but I hear that the V2 pickup is supposed to be amazing. What impressed me the most was the single coil in my RS335. The best acoustic voicing of any electric PU I've ever heard. Incredibly clean.

Members stanfield Posted December 28, 2006 Members Share Posted December 28, 2006 the 335 is a great instrument.. i'm so glad i ended up with the SH config and not SSH as planned (SSH = Super5 single coils). the Super6 single is so nice, very rich, very full. the V2 is great too. hotter than a PAF, but not overwhelming. throw the selector switch in the middle position and you get a cool tone. It's a really fun guitar to mess around with. Nice gear Radiohead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Radiohead, lol Posted December 28, 2006 Members Share Posted December 28, 2006 thanksI think my 135 has super 5 single coils...is that a bad thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stanfield Posted December 28, 2006 Members Share Posted December 28, 2006 hah no man.. well, i guess you'd have to tell us the difference between the Super5 and Super6 is the pole size. That's all. The former being a more traditional single coil pickup and the latter producing a 'fatter' tone due to the larger pole pieces. I'm sure the Super5 sounds pretty sweet.what a beautiful family photograph you have as your avatar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtchc1978 Posted December 28, 2006 Members Share Posted December 28, 2006 Just got a 315 for christmas to add to the collection. I had been looking for a maple fretboard roadstar for a while. The pickup isn't stock and it has an added coil tap. I have not taken it apart yet, not sure what the pickup is but it sounds good. Nice playing guitar, I am very happy with it.

Members Radiohead, lol Posted December 31, 2006 Members Share Posted December 31, 2006 Just got the 315 yesterday afternoon..pics Not bad for $200. Going to get it fixed up real soon, all I need are tuning keys, a new nut, and an electronics cavity plate. I already got it wired up with new electronics. What are some good cheap tuning keys?

Members Larry the Dog Posted January 8, 2007 Members Share Posted January 8, 2007 Back in the club!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just bought an RG-440 off ebay.....it was exactly what I was looking for. H-S-S(w/ black covers), edge trem, and that beautiful metallic purple/burgundy around the contours that fades into black. It comes with the original case, shipped for $350. You may think I overpaid, but I had one just like it about 18 years ago and regretfully traded it in on a Satch model. The only thing I'm gonna do to it is get it refretted w/jumbos and get the neck tung-oiled. I'm psyched.....it should be here on Wednesday......

Members donsimon76 Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 Here is mine! 1985 RS140. I originally had one that was black with a white pick guard but the original owner was begging for it back and traded me a Fender Princeton Chorus is perfect condition and could not turn him down. The next day I found this one on eBay with the exact same features except black on black.I absolutely love the sound of it.I may be getting a Blazer in a day or so. I am a sucker for Ibanez guitars.

Members Mister Crow Posted July 9, 2007 Members Share Posted July 9, 2007 Hi- I just picked up an Ibanez RG-440 off of CraigsList for $50!! It's black that fades into purple, Licensed Floyd Rose bridge, Humbucker and two single coils, all original with original case. Very nice shape overall, been played but the guy was just a home player. I was wondering two thing: What years were this model made, and is there a way to date this guitar? And as I have a guitar show coming up next week, I might bring it to the show, since I'm not sure I'm going to keep it. What would be a good asking price to a dealer, since he has to resell it I know I won't get full value. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. if it an RG my guess is thats its at least an 87. the 2nd number of the serial number will tell the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
