Help!I'maRock!
Mediocringly Derivative
a couple of weeks ago i started a new job. to say it's in a bad area of town is putting it lightly. it's in worst area in the city, Hunts Point. the work is good. i'm a business developer for a non-profit that is working with the Mayor's office and Small Business Services to bring jobs back to the Bronx. but there's no way i'm bringing my good gear up there so i can have band practice back in Midtown on worknights. so i started looking for cheap guitars and finally came up with something today.
originally, i walked into GC to talk about shipping a used Godin from another store. i wanted better pics and to maybe see what i could haggle on price. but then i found a used Ibanez RG, and having it in-hand with no hassles was better than taking the long process of all the questions i had. this one fits all the requirements. hardtail, two humbuckers, and cheap. there's a couple of high frets and a large shim in the neck that needs to come out. and it needs a decent cleaning. but for $150 out the door, i'll at least get my money back if i decide to sell. and it even has the same pickups my original RG had when i bought it in 1993. so i know exactly how it responds.
this is not the exact instrument, but it is an identical facsimile.
