Nice axe man I really dig it.

There's another thread about a custom axe going on. I think it looks terrible but I dont feel the need to go into it and start giving the owner cr@p so I can feel better about myself or whatever...................

Link. Unless by two queens you mean of the drag variety, then I'll pass.

One like to his pics is http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x...istmas0015.jpg

If you were to chop off the end starting at /2008 you would get the main account and just click view all.

Just so no one thinks I am picking on him. I could care less who looks in my photobucket account but you will have to figure out how to get there youself :P

I could careless if he is lying or not. If he is then may karma catch up with him.

Collector, re read his first post, he has been nothing but up front about where and how it was made, he never once claimed it to be from the custom shop, only that a guy that worked there made it at as a side project, and that he paid a bit of money for it. You just don't like the work that was done on it, so say that you don't like it and move on. You came in with both guns a blazzin about how crappy it is and how he is trying to pull one over on everyone.

Boy, this thread really got weird in a hurry.

Why does everyone attack everyone on here?

It is normally not like this. Usually everyone is laid back and mature. Maybe it's the high gas prices that have people on edge.

Everyone is allowed to voice their opinion unless it isn't friendly then they are wrong. Originally IC said he didnt like it and listed the reasons. IC has done more relics than every other poster here combined and he makes a nice little profit from it. Obviously he's doing something right, I know he's been contacted by some well respected builders about working for them. (sorry if I wasnt supposed to let that out). I would say he has a better eye for relics than anyone here, something didnt look right and he pointed it out. He didnt like the job the guy did, and he pointed out some flaws. It happens.

QBM can say all he wants that it was built by a Fender CS guy, maybe it was but without certification to prove it anyone that would pay a ton of money for it on a strangers word might just need to possibly be scammed, but the thing hasn't even been listed for sale so no big deal.

I'd like to know that too. The place gets more and more unfriendly by the day (to the point where I don't visit here as often, even though it's still a lot).

Ah ha!! A voice of reason.

#1) Whoever wants to look at my photobucket account is more than welcome...it's just guitars and girls..... look away!! (For the record, this guitar is absolutely NOT the Black Jimmie Vaughan Signature in my photobucket album....as Ibanez Collector is trying to make you believe)

#2) The guitar has not been listed for sale or trade.... so I am not sure how I can be scamming anyone...as the guitar, as of now, is not avalible to anyone??

#3) This is just a simple case of Ibanez Collector's feelings being hurt, or ego on the line, etc..etc...

My guess is that he feels I am a new "relic guy" whose invading his turf, and may perhaps put a dent in the profit he may make from some of you here.

The fact is, I don't know one end of a screwdriver from the other... I wouldn't know where to begin on a relic project myself, and I certainly wouldn't trust myself to relic a $179 set of Lace Sensors.... so I am certianly not the builder here. I am not trying to "drum up some business.".... invaded turf I feel is the reason for the hated more than the "blashphemy that this isn't a real Custom Shop."

Ibanez Collector may be a master builder? But he's horrible at human relations. My believe is that if he was 100% confident in his own work, there would be no need to post negative comments on this thread.

For what it's worth, he has sent me an apologetic PM, which I appreciate... but I still didn't see the point of the negativity posted on the public forum.

And something else. Like a saloon door swingin both ways?

[Queens_Brian_May]

That's just me and Ibanez Collector outside the G3 concert.... we thought we saw Eric Johnson and Doug Doppler coming our way.

Actually, that pic was used to taunt some douchie on another website who was going to whip everyone's A ss

What's kind of weird is I have page after page of guitars and a few girls in my photobucket, but several seem intrigued by these two guys flaming it up...

Maybe Glen needs to rename this Fem-site.com??

You sure you are Queen's Brian May and not Freddie Mercury?
