Traded the Ibanez acoustic- another NGD! Xaviere SG Copy

Post by mkt3000 »

My tech wanted an acoustic, and I love Champagne Metallic. So we swapped guitars. He got my $100 Ibanez Acoustic, and I got an SG copy. It was a build-your-own guitar from one of the Guitarfetish kits with a pair of GFS Crunchy Pat humbuckers and no headstock decal. It has a few imperfections in the finish, but they're not really noticeable. Nothing that a properly positioned sticker or decal can't fix. Plus, I've dealt with this tech for years and trust him when he tells me "it's good."

So I played it, and it's good! Now to come up with a witty headstock decal... although I kinda dig the partially matte headstock.

And pics.. cause without them, this didn't happen.
