S-Prestige swirl?

Crazy_Guitar · #1 06-27-2008, 07:10 AM

Hey folks...

I've seen this on the 'Bay: 270248852879
From what I understand, it's a 2007 limited editon. I've never heard of it!!!

Any opinions?

Nice guitar, but some of the photos show the guitar lying on a tile floor, that is not great in my opinion, why risk scratching a brand new mint condition guitar.....

Yep, you're right about that!
But I'm only asking... I have never heard of this particular "limited edition"!

Actually it's linoleum. Not as bad as tile but I still would've put a towel or something under the axe.

I remember that one. It was either released in 2006 or 2007. I think 2007...

I just checked Rich' site. It's a 2007 model.

Linoleum won't harm the guitar. But there's also a pic of the guitar laying flat on it's back. That's not a wise thing to do with a titled headstock(!).

I guess if it's for a second or two, just to grab the pic, it won't harm the guitar.

Yeah it wont harm the guitar, but its tainted in my opinion.

If your trying to sell a brand new guitar, showing it lying on the floor is not a good sales strategy in my opinion ...!!!

That guitar wasn't a special edition. It was a production guitar. However, it was an Indo-made Prestige. There's one or two others of the same model but with a different wood on the top.

I've seen it in person and it looks much better in person than it does in pics. Personally, it felt great, but I don't care for the ZR trem. I've got 4 S series with the ZR and I just don't like them.

But if the ZR trem is your thing then you'll love this guitar!

Sounds like time for a change.

Well, I've got about 14 other RGs that have an Edge of some sort in them. That's what I mainly play...actually, mostly my 7's.

It's not really a swirl. It's just Ebony, undyed in it's naturally figured state. It also came in Bubinga and Burl Poplar tops.

For a second I thought I was gonna see pics of that god awful GC exclusive "sanded-down", 3 color S620 lol

And a minor correction to a poster above me : Its Korean, not Indonesian.
