NGD, and It's official. I'm an IBANEZ Fan Boy!!

[Bocc69]

I'm the proud owner of an Ibanez S6570QNBL





About 10 years ago, I purchased an IBANEZ S5470 from Sweetwater. For some reason I returned it a day later....maybe I couldn't get over the skinny frame, I don't know. I should have had my head examined, because it was a player, and I've regretted it ever since.

I thought about an S model for a decade now, but couldn't justify the purchase...Then it hit me. Sell something!! That's what I did. So for the last year, I watched Reverb for the rite grab. Then it came up. A used 2020, at half price! Purchased in AUG 2020...what's the catch? Bad neck, high action, Dagger marks?? Nope!!

This was my first experience on Reverb. The guy sent me the guitar 2nd day air. WTF!! I couldn't believe when it showed up at my door. I had the day off, what could be better. When I opened the case, I almost cried! This guitar is mint!! I picked it up, OMG low low action. A Player!! Now I did Cry! (Maybe...you can't prove it if i did)

Once we became friends, I took ol' Bluey outside for some fresh Air.

I'm hip, got my first Ibby a couple of months ago.
Lovin' it!

Congrats on the Premium, beautiful shredder.

Here's acouple of mine, been looking at the Jem line lately.

 

[Bocc69]

Did I mention Low action. Not everyone's desire, but it's mine, and she play's like butter. I love ol' Bluey!!

 

[Bocc69]

Congrats on the Premium, beautiful shredder.

Thank you much. Nice Ibby yourself!

She's a Prestige, with smooth smooth frets.

I looked at a few Jems too....there are like 10,000 different Jem Models. My head was spinning figuring it out. ...Then I saw the price tag and stopped looking.

Beautiful addition there B69 ! Love the quilt.

 

[Bocc69]

After Ol' Bluey got used to her surroundings, I introduced her to some of her sisters. They were instant friends. I couldn't be more proud. I get the feeling there was some insecurity about their pecking order, but i did some light picking to ease any fears.




We began to get a bit chilli...it was time to warm up and meet some more of the family.

Everyone quickly posed for another photo....I sensed that Gibby was not happy about the new family member. They'll come around....they saw what happened to Rickenbacker!!

HA --- gibsons tossed in a pile Ibanez on the stands......BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

[Bocc69]

It had been a long day. How many 1 1/2 step bends can be done in a day....apparently lots. Everyone was tired. We finally took a rest for the evening. Bluey learned quickly that I'm an early riser though. She won't sit long without attention. My fingers are sore!!

Heck yea!! I've played many of them....every range of quality. They all seem to play great. I may have to get another. Ohh, did I just say that? Here we go!!

 

[Bocc69]

What a nice family shot !

What can I say....i'm a family Man! They'll thank me when they get older.

Thanks Buddy...I think I already have.
Does that guitar you reference, by chance, begin with the letter G ?? Just taking a wild guess.
