New unexpected member of the family: A Real ODD BALL

ibanezcollector · #1 09-23-2006, 01:35 PM

I used to gas over this guitar big time and to be honest I forgot all about it.. I went to the local GC here yesterday and seen it and brought back all those old feelings.

Luckily this thing is in dead mint shape for being 17 years old.. I was super impressed and the active electronics just make any amp scream. I cant wait to get her home and run it thru my rig.. I bought it and came right to work.

Shes a real odd ball to say the least. The Alvarez Dana Scoop. In ultra bright red.. And now I got a mint one for $200..

anyways heres a couple temp. pics till I get home and get some better ones..

I forgot all about those. I remember seeing them in a Guitar mag when they came out. I thought man that thing looks weird. I never got to check one out though. Good Score

I've been trying to find one of these everywhere haha. Congrats, man.

Yeah, I've always been half-looking around for one of these too actually. They practically never come up in the UK though, but I always thought they were pretty sweet myself! Very nice guitar at a very nice price! Congrats.

Nice upper fret access

Congrats, it's always cool to get the one you wanted way back when!

Ive been inlove with that cutaway since 2 years back! haven't even bother to search for one just cause i thought i would have to look in the US while i live in sweden... well really really nice guitar! How does it sound? It is the original pickups? would like to know how you feel about the cutaway too

HOLY CRAP!!! we had one in a pawn shop exactly like that one for several years. i am not the biggest fan of them, even though i like 80s shred machines, but that one SCREAMS 80s. congrats to you for the cheap score. does that one have the graphite neck?
