NGD - Ibanez ORM1

Post by mkt3000 »

It ain't a Fender, but it's a shortscale. Or as I'd like to call it, don't drink and then go to Sam Ash.

It was there - the first guitar in the used section as you came in from the street. It spoke to me. I said "BUY ME YOU BITCH". Sounded good, decent sustain, COMFY neck, action was low, and it came with an Ibanez gig bag.

A bit of haggling later, I got a small discount and two packs of Ernie Ball 10's, and I walked away with the guitar.

And now: PICS

I've always fancied one. It's a ridicuously short scale is it not (22.5?).

Gongrats, i really like it.

Nice. I liked mine while I had it, not sure whether pens still has it or not. Is regular 24" scale I believe.

So... the drinking wasn't a joke, and the hangover just hit me. Time to figure out how I'm getting this guitar and the jaguarillo both home

I'm pretty sure I'll end up getting one of these at some point.


Never at the top of my want list but relatively cheep and super cool, I'm bound to end up with one at some point.
