Description
Docs
H.R. Giger, best known for the creature of "Alien" fame, has joined forces with Ibanez to create two limited edition guitars. There are two different models of H.R. Giger/Ibanez guitars, whose relatively small numbers of available quantities compared to standard guitar production should make them highly desired items for collectors. The RGTHRG1 features Giger's "NY City XIX" painting on the Ibanez RG body design popular among heavy metal guitarists.

Ibanez RGTHRG1 HR Giger Limited Edition Electric Guitar Reviews

"Freakin sweet metal axe"
Feature:
i really like the tremolo system. it's a little loose with 2 springs but it allows me to do all the crazy dimebag squeels. the neck is great for any player i prefer a neck that doesn't have a lot of depth this one is perfect.
Quality:
this guitar is perfect right from the factory no blemishes, or loose parts. the only thing was that my E string was fretting out when i was holding the it down on the 1st fret. but i just adjusted the height of the bridge and the tune lock. this guitar will last forever
Value:
it's deffinetly worth it.
Desirability:
it's nice if ur in a serious metal band. but it looks out of place when playin anything else. the graphic is crazy
Sound:
this guitar is awesome! i can play sweet smooth riffs then instantly switch to some crazy metal stuff. this guitar has a lot of balls. it sounds great even with a cheap $60 amp.
Ease of Use:
this guitar is perfect for playing. it didn't take any getting used to, i just picked it up and was instantly amazed by how easy it is to play. the sound is great u can turn down ur gain and play easy stuff, then crank it up and it sounds like a sick metal axe.
Support:
i haven't had to contact them because everything is okay. but this guitar isn't on the ibanez website and it pisses me off.
Overall:
forever. i like this guitar but i would like a gibson les paul as well

"Marvel, But I'd like it without The HR.GIGER design"
Feature:
It includes a hardcover case with a Hr GIGER design, or so I've heard and it's one of the best guitars I've encountered
Quality:
Tremolo was loose, but everything else was a dream
Value:
I think part of the price
Desirability:
The design isn't that appealing, it's not the best of HR Giger's work. But the sound is orgasmic
Sound:
Very very clean and full, with distortion it still remains crisp and you can play clear solos but also heavy metal. Amazing
Support:
All sites show that the guitar has two pickups, even though it has three. >: ( Couldn't find a support address anywhere
Overall:
Forever. If it was stolen i'd probably return to my old guitar because I wouldn't have enough money, but as soon as I'd get enough I'd definately buy it again (even though it's limited and by then it might be gone forever)
