JCRG5 custom guitar

Anyone seen how a JCRG5 looks like? Does it also have the 'vine' inlay as the JCRG4?

Thanks guys!

All I've seen in a couple of Kevan's recent replies (including this one) is blank space. A problem?

Anyway, here are some JCRG5 images that have been around for a good while:

I found a much better picture once on a German guitar magazine site, but can't seem to place it at the moment.

Sorry guys. *This sweetass software leaves tends to leave a blank spot where the old post was.

Thanks for the pics guys! It certainly does look hot! Espcially the tree of life inlay.Does it only come in one colour?

I may have an oppoturnity to get one and wanted to find out a little more about it!

Reckon I should go for this over a used JEM90?

That is what I call a nice guitar.... well, only the DM5000 ($2500) seems a bit of aproblem.....

Walter,
I didn't know you're into J-customs as well, hehehe.

Sorry we didn't get a chance to hook up (again). *Next time for sure, ok.

With the dollar-to-yen at 125 these new JCRGs are surely tempting...

walter · #13 07-20-2001, 10:06 PM

Hehe, I'm sorry too Dave, I was busy taking care of my girl anyway, she was in the hospital again in Tue, and I take her home on Thur, still she's taking medicine

And yeah, those J-custom thingy are great! But I decided to build my own "real" Jem custom .........

Thats a new twist to the tree of life vine idea and it's one I actually like for a change. I've seen other vines that were not like the original design (nor were they Ibanez) and I thought they were just that cheesy one off's but Ibanez came through on this one....:love:
