Re: my current Ibanez MAXXAS collection

if you look hard enough, they pop up in different countries: japan, usa, germany and the netherlands.. there was even one in Belgium.. which I missed.

I've never seen or heard of one of those guitars, they look really cool! [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

They kinda look like the Satch sig in a way.

Re: my current Ibanez MAXXAS collection

Hey, It's Larry Mitchell! Don't know if you guys are familiar with him, but he is one hell of a shredder! I've seen him live a few times here in the NYC area, and got to hang with him on a couple of occasions. Super cool, down-to earth guy. He's an amazing talent...I wonder what he's doing now? The last time I talked to him was at a King's X show back in 2000, and at that time he was still playing clubs pretty regularly...

As far as the guitars go...Cool collection. You know, I too have never seen these models before. What's the neck profile like? Typical Ibanez? Kinda funky looking...in a good way....Nice...

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I was kidding but wouldn't you happen to have a Zebra coat like his? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
I saw him once at NAMM jamming with Andy Timmons at Ibanez booth back in early 90's.

the Maxxas neck profile is even thinner compared to the Wizzard neck profile

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img].. no, but I did use to have zebra pants, I think [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

btw, when you saw him, did he play the Maxxas?

Re: my current Ibanez MAXXAS collection

I always saw him playing Sabres......
I still have my zebra pants. Everyone should own them. I like the Maxxas, they were cheap when they came out. Now they sell for alot, because people have rediscovered them. Doesnt make sence though, they were a great guitar, they should have seen that in the first place..........

When I saw him, he was playing a Satriani looking model (540R? ) with SSH.
