Now who, with that all sparkly glittery finish, was telling me to get a V that was not like a little kid V, as I showed him some Jackson V's in a cool Swirl finish?

That King V is over the Top but it does seem like kid's art projects of Elmer's Glue and Glitter. I like it, Love the color and shape and everything, except for it being way over in England right now.

 

[mcblink]

Oof!

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

I don't even think I could narrow it down to 10!

RAY, PLEASE do Not TAKE OFFENSE................................. AND NONE meant to your Bride is intended.

With this statement of his, I wonder how he ever found a wife, AND how he is not a Mormon. Maybe he is a closet guitar Mormon. Hmmm

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

That Jackson looks noooice. You know, Ive been searching trem arm forever for my V and I cant find it anywhere with matching finish. Spent about a week on internet try to find it.

What finish is it? Ramo

Women are a lot more complicated than guitars. I still cannot figure out the ONE I have!!

Hey, Chili what's up? long time no speak, how are ya?

Trem arm is like a brush metal/silver type color. It's what Japanese run models had in 2000..

I have no idea who you talking about....


Thas sparkle is almost invisible, you only see it because of sunlight hitting it directly. I want silver in that type of sparkle but no swirls or tornados

That would be a much easier list to create.

1. Martin D-16T
2. '62 SG Special
3. '62 Strat
4. '16 ES-335
5. Homemade Billy-Bo
6. Homemade '58 Flying V
7. '85 Les Paul Standard
8. '69 SG Standard
9. '00 Rickenbacker 330/12
10. '13 Gibson Thunderbird
11. '76 Firebird


Oops, not that easy after all.

That is 11. You couldn't do it either!

No, I couldn't. Couldn't keep the Firebird off of the list.

 

[Don O]

I can only narrow it down to the ones in the house :dood:. Does that count ?

You could probably just get a regular Chrome one and brush it up yourself with some Emery cloth. I've done this many times before with cheap looking Chrome hardware and I get good results.

don't know what that cloth is, just googled it, I will get one I do already have a regular chrome one so let's see if it works. I doubt but worth a try.

It'll work great!
I'm a little disappointed in myself for not having suggested that earlier, it's a really good idea!

Emery cloth is like a fine-grit sandpaper....like a fingernail file.... Works great for all kinds of stuff.

Yarg, Pearl drums used to have hoops and lugs and legs etc all in that Polished finish called Satin.

My Black Japanese RR3 came to me with a Black Floyd and a chrome trem arm. I wasn't sure if Ramo needed Chrome or Another NON black version. I did see Jackson made like 4-5 different Floyd finishes like Shiny Black, Matte Black, Chrome, and "Satin"

Thanks, man, I did find someone on Jackson's forum he had the exact one I wanted but it was too expensive to send it over here, he was in U.S. it was over $100 to send it here for banged up bridge I only want he arm but he would not sell just arm.

If you did find the one I'm looking for you be the man and me love you forever and ever and ever and ever.

Mine it's S540LTD too but it's black. When it was new you can saw a flame maple top on It. It has different pickups than your Ibanez. All original parts except volume pot, bridge springs (OEM parts) and Dunlop frets.

I lie. I'm getting old. I replaced output jack and a bridge saddle as well(OEM parts). I replaced bridge saddle because It is to much worn.
