This is a very interesting, totally customized guitar I picked up a few years ago. Frankly, I purchased it for display purposes, but it plays pretty well!
The Story: The guy that sold it to me combined his passions for both guitar and art...he customized an Ibanez RG (sorry, not sure what model) by splatter-painting it with black & white splatter. Very cool graphically, and as you can see in the closeup pic of the tuners, the paint is fairly thick. This is not a "mint" guitar by any means, and it has a few dings, etc., but due to the paint job, you can't really see them.
He also got the fretboard scalloped, which I have found I like a lot. It's not much different than having large frets, but it allows you to really dig in and bends feel a little easier.
Floyd Rose trem - plays smooth as can be, holds tune fine. Be aware you will need to find a trem bar and the piece that holds it in place (I believe this is called a "coupling kit"). Both are available on the Floyd Rose site. Also, there is no top piece to the locking nut, but not everyone keeps those on...
Pickup is a Seymour Duncan Screamin' Demon, and it sounds great! There are cutouts for a neck humbucker and a single coil in the middle position, if you want to add them.
The neck on the guitar is the typical Ibanez neck, nice and skinny and fast!!
The guitar needs a setup and new strings - it has not been played much recently! But, I just tried it out and all is well electronically - works fine.
No case included, but I have a guitar box and can bubble wrap it very well.
Also, as an FYI, most weeks I can ship only on weekends, though I may be able to ship weekdays some weeks - please confirm before buying if need it shipped before the next weekend.
