It's actually not a copy. It's made in Korea, for the record. He confirmed the serial number with Ibanez, it's a real one.

However, it is one of those iffy Chinese auctions. I wouldn't trust 'em, personally, but it worked out well for him!

Aw man! LOVE the Nords. I'll never have the money for an 88. But I might someday be able to squeak the Electro 2 73.

I just got an Electro 61. I wish I could have grabbed a Stage 88 but good god, Im not rich!

Well not many know this... but I'm actually a guitar player.



I have to say my favorite so far is the first one I built

Great pics... Where's the the chick from the buffalo wings joint? Oh yeah, nice guitar too.

Photoshop fodder. Oops.. Did I say that aloud?

 

[AdlerAugen]

Don't misunderstand. I WANT the expensive stuff, too. I just know I'll never have it. I can't afford the whole word to be poor. I'm po',

Hopefully I'll get either one high enough paying job or multiple jobs which will add together so I can get those things.

one of my goals in life is to own one of every instrument in the standard symphony orchestra.

besides that, i'd love a nice tele, a nice les paul, and a nice hollowbody of some sort.

and a host of synthesizers, keyboards, noisemakers, percussion instruments... etc. anything that can make a sound, y'know?

Nope, the 555 has black hardware, his is gold. It's the JEM7V according to Ibanez's website. Plays like butter!

I don't know why, but I thought that was really funny.

And I also find it interesting how just about every auction from China is a scam, except the ones that sell Jems, because you actually get a Jem that'll go for like $2,000 here.

Very nice indeed. I haven't played any of their non-weighted models. What's the action like?

 

[Bard2dbone]

The 61 is the unfortunately light synth key action that I hate so much. The 73 is an 'in between' action that I'm not sure how to describe. The keys are nearly full size and lightly weighted, so it's more than the terrible synth keys, but less than the piano-like keys.

For the difference in cost I could probably learn to like it.


But MAN, I wish I could afford an 88.
