Those look badass but I couldn't deal with how close the pickups are, I would beat the hell out of the neck pickup when I play. They could add another 1" in between the two. I just stick with 22 frets. nice guitars though.

Some very nice looking guitars. I like their maple fretboards.

from the website:

"These are the 666strings standard guitar shapes, handcrafted for metal, core, PUNK or rock shredders… "

any punk band caught using a guitar like one of these would deserve to be laughed off stage

Hey they are rad. I like them too. I think having those metal walls between the saddles would be great.

The bridge pickups all seem a little forward too, weird placement. I dig that bridge too. *bookmarked*

Punk doesn't really exist anymore Snoogles. The dudes still calling themselves "punk" weren't ever really "punk" to begin with. A real punk would probably think it was pretty punk to play punk with a $2000 guitar and beat the piss out of it.

those are nice. What is "pickup balance" knob? Is it like a fader?

I liked them better when they were called Ibanez.

LOL!! Im not real keen on the shapes or the finishes, but look well made. 6 screw neck joint. Kinda suprised none of the stock photo guits have floyds, esp the V shape. I kinda chuckled when I saw the one with the crackle finish. I remembered the crackle finishes back in the 80s. didnt like em then either..

These look terrible and the pickup placement is all sorts of whack. I bet they sound terrible with bridge pickups that far forward.

its like a pickup selector, only fades from one pup to the neck. ive played one of these, and they are nice as hell!

actually the pickups placement is quite awesome. dont ever judge a guitar til you have played one, thats always been my philosophy.

Sorry, but I disagree. I've owned and played enough guitars at this point in my life to know that I do not like bridge pickups that far from the bridge, and I'm not alone in that sentiment.

played guitar since before you were born, and i appreciate that but it doesnt mean its placed wrong. dont judge a guitar you never played.
