Ibanez J custom Vs RG 2820

I was wondering which of this guitar you prefer. One is a J custom 1712, and the other is a discontinued model (rg2820).

I caN BUY THEM FOR ABOUT 1200 EUROS, BUT i DONīT KNOW TO BUY THEM OR NOT, AND WHICH ONE TO BUY.
Has someone got them???

Oh man, i'm going to blow a load when I see the pictures of those things. I'm bidding on a 450 right now. I know they were discontinued years ago, right? I think it might be one of the Japan models Eddy and I commented on... I'll link you guys when/if I win it. Ends in an hour.

testify!

lol, but seriously, the RG is the BEST guitar shape EVER! and the ibanez headstock shape is also the best headstock shape ever.

but on my ran, its going to be an rg body with a reversed esp pointy headstock because i dont think the ran logo would look right on a ibanez shaped headstock.

Dont get the logo on it,better than getting the headstock you dont want?BTW the stratocaster is the best shape.

i love the esp pointy reverse headstock, and it seems like a suitable substitute, and plus the ran logo looks perfect on it, so i will go with that:

sexy!!

i was thinking of getting a blank ibanez shaped headstock and then buying an ibanez logo from ebay and then putting it on it, but i dont think ran will give me a blank headstock so i will go to the next best thing.

But dont be a queer, be proud that you have a custom ran and not a machine made ibanez.

Yeah why the fuck would you want a Ibanez logo instead of a Ran logo, especially when its a Ran guitar.

I was thinking that if i were to order a ran one day, i would have the headstock blank (or maybe a design on it) and Ran on the 12th fret.

I think its important to let people know what you're playing, especially if you appreciate the guitar and work gone into it. Its helping the brand advertise, plus its their signature on the guitar, as an artist signs a painting.

Yes. And I was thinking about getting on of those Ibanez logos for shits and giggles on my Squier. Can't wait till mine comes in. I won't shut up about it.

I agree with the kid here. Dime was good. He's dead. Before he was dead, you were not reguarding him as "the greatest and most influential guitarist of our time" as some of you fucking sheep do now. And Laiho? Pleeaaase. Good or not, Bodom couldn't write an interesting song if they were the last band on earth. Now shut up, he was only comparing the paint of his dream guitar to the one mick has. I would have too, but the photo of steve vai all metro-sexualled out is HIL-fucking-ARIOUS. Now I'm going to crawl back into my cage. Stop being assholes.

one day you will learn my son. Until than, get a few NEW guitar hero's. (notice I spelled it NEW....not NU)


Mick may be good at guitar and all, but he plays for a crappy band and doesn't display all his potential.

Bottom line, word has it that Mick is a fucking prick. I would rather hang with a decent guitar player thats cool to be around then some stuck up bitch.


Oh yah.....nice guitar BTW....
