RG Custom


Hey Ibanez fans! Its finally done, my first guitar project! Here is my RG Custom. I refinished a normal black RG and put marble finish on it. I bought Dimarzio Evos for it and dimarzio electronics. I also will be upgrading the trem. She isn’t wired up yet but the finish looks great and its glossy as H E L L! Let me know what you think! (BTW The pictures do no justice, this axe shows its beauty best in person.)

I will be uploading more in the daylight to show the jaw dropping finish!

Thanks to Courtney at the Ibanez forum and everyone else who chimed in for tips along the way!

Re: RG Custom


Thats a sweet finish.
better than mine, i couldnt be botherd painting it so i just stained it with some tinted beeswax and buffed it up a bit.
That guitar would look great with black and white pups in.
