Guitar Compilation

[children of COB]

First of all: I DO know there's a guitar player thread, but there we discuss things about playing and maybe if someone gets a new axe squezes it in, but the goal of this thread is that every RR/ESP Alexi owner fills in with some pics of his axe and get a collection with all.

I thought about it while talking about various things in the Pics thread and thought it could be cool and also I don't remeber one like that, so I decided to create the thread. If you're just going to say how much OMG FANBOIS ALEKSI WANNABEES then don't post. There's loads of other threads in the OT for you to take a look instead of trolling one in which you're not interested.

So here we go, I'll have a list in the first page and there I'll write down every owner and model, and then each one post as much pics as he/she wants of their own guitars.

I'll start with mine:

Now it's your turn!

 

[OvSeth]

You just made me want one, congrats .

 

[children of COB]

Thanks

They're not that expensive, or at least nothing to do with the price you had to pay before to get a neck-thru+floyd rose+24 frets Jackson RR,

 

[Altitudes]

Hmmm... not quite sure about that. And I fail to see how this isn't a ALEKSI FANBOI WANNABEE thread...

Jackson RR with: Floyd Rose+Neck-thru+24 frets

BEFORE: Custom Shop (over 3000€)
NOW: Pro Series(~900€)

Still doubt? (Jackson Stars exist, or used to, but were a mess to order, or at least for me, and that's why I ordered the RR24)

About ALEKSI FANBOI WANNABEE topic, like it's been said a million times, if the guitar you like is used (or the same shape at least) for a famous guitarist you're not instantly a fanboi. Since I started playing guitar (and this was before knowing of COB) I've always wanted an offset V (a RR) and there's more people like myself that like the shape, and this does not instantly direct to fanboism. Or are you saying that every single Les Paul owner is a Zakk Wylde fanboi? It'd be the same logical relation with Alexi/offset V guitars. For me they're not. If you still fail at seeing it, then as I said just don't look at the thread, just avoid it. Sure there are a lot more that contain interesting things for you. We had a discusion about that short before Mitch got this problem with the net, and you amongst many others ended up agreeing with him to the fact that owning an offset V doesn't instantly imply Alexi fanboism.

 

[Nerve]

Fuck, everyone here uses some Jackson or ESP ! If it's not fanboism, ffs !?

 

[children of COB]

Not everyone, and not exclusively. I have an Ibanez which I use as much as the Jackson, and once again, if you don't like the thred, then just go to one of the thousand others the COBOT can offer you which surely will have more interesting things for you.

 

[dave100]

ill post my pics soon, im just waiting for my mum to get home so i can use her cam

 

[Altitudes]

Doesn't umosay, homerj666, and Ben Johnson have esp's, or customs rhoads?

That's not the probleme dude.. It's just, why do people buy EXCLUSIVELY RR-24, then ESP ? They're far of being the best guitars in the world, I'm trying to understand.

 

[The Emptier]

homerj has a caparison

 

[children of COB]

It's not exclusively, and I already explained why RR24, is a 24 frets+floyd+neck-thru offset V, thing which before required Custom Shop, RR owners have not bought ESPs now. Also all RR24's have been purchased after Alexi switched to ESP (because they have appeared this year, ). And ''the best guitar of the world'' doesn't exist IMO. A guitar is good as long as it fits what you're looking for. F.e., Paul Red Smith guitars are suposed to be exquisite guitars, but they don't have Floyd,nor 24 frets nor offset V shape, which are the things I like, so for me is not better than my old Behringer. I myself and I asume more people here have gotten this guitars because they wanted offset V's neck thru and 24 frets with floyd. I wanted this, and also 1 pickup, so that's why I got the RR and not a S.V. or a King V (one doesn't fit because of the extra pickup and 200&#8364; increase because of that, the other because of the same and also because it's a normal V, and I like RR shape). If this for you is fanboism, then yes, I'm a fanboy.


@failure_of_threads: nice pic, if you have time upload too some of the whole guitar and a detail of the back of the guitar also please.

 

[OvSeth]

I'm a rhoads fanboi , but I want 24 frets.

 

[children of COB]

Your answer is RR24

 

[Altitudes]

I wanted this, and also 1 pickup, so that's why I got the RR and not a S.V. or a King V (one doesn't fit because of the extra pickup and 200€ increase because of that, the other because of the same and also because it's a normal V, and I like RR shape). If this for you is fanboism, then yes, I'm a fanboy.

I'm a fanboy.

[children of COB]

Don't think so. Enlighten me with another guitar with just one pickup, OFR, beck-thru and 24 frets for the same price please (and that it's not Stars, because it was a nightmare trying to order one so I've given up).

 

[Altitudes]

I'm just messin' with you mate, don't take me all to serious.

 

[children of COB]

It's just that the whole OMG FANBOISM whenever a RR appears drives me crazy. And also they typical ''one pickup=shit'' thing. I do not use the neck pickup (in fact, in my Ibanez, the switch has spent so much time at the same position that it's hard to move it nowadays, ) so I don't need one, and the less things I have on the guitar the better. I won't get to the extreme of Karl Sanders of Nile, who is a really tough guy and his guitar doesn't even have volume knob, , just pickup and bridge,

 

[The Emptier]

thats just an option actually. you can get those guitars w/ a neck pup and a whole bunch of other options.
