Played not too bad out of the case, but definitely needs a setup... looking forward to letting this baby rip!
Back in '88 it was between an Ibanez 540R and a Charvel, silly me I chose the Ibanez, although I did like it at the time, I should've gone with the Charvel... well, now I've finally corrected that mistake
The colors on that snakeskin are some of the most realistic I've seen, and H/S always gets a big thumbs up from me.
What year is it?
That's the reason I leaned towards the DeMartini Snake, I absolutely wanted a H/S configuration but also a Custom Shop and didn't want to wait the 12-18 months.
They're a pain to find up here in Canada so I had it shipped up from the States (just love those customs charges), I stumbled on a NOS (made in '10) from a shop in Maryland... so far I'm very happy with it, can't wait to set it up to my preferences.
Wow, that's hot. I recently picked up my first Ibanez, a 1990 RG550. Not bad guitars at all. Either is a good choice. The only issue I have with Ibanez is that those bright rainbow finishes and vines turn me off. I never got into Via or Satch. My RG550 is a very "metal" black on black.
Great looking guitar and I love the pickup combo!
When I read the title of the thread I was expecting a Pro Mod. Really went all out for your first Charvel...Nice!
I'm going to have to go hide my first Charvel away in shame after seeing that!
