I, Ibanez!

Whoa!


I can hardly say anything else. I now own an Ibanez V72E acoustic guitar. You'll probably see it splashed all over my orkut account, and I've even made it my gtalk custom message, but the fact remains that I now own an Ibanez, which is light years above the Givson 150 that I used to play on. It cost me INR 8650 for the guitar plus the works- gigbag, capo, strap and an extra set of authentic D'Addario bronze strings. A fortune, I agree. But I'm not complaining.

About this particular guitar, it has a spruce top, mahogany back, sides and neck, and a rosewood fretboard. It comes with a handy on board tuner.

And I've found out that a list of famous Ibanez users include:

1. Michael Einziger of Incubus
2. Gareth Davies of Funeral for a Friend
3. Brad Walst and Barry Stock of Three Days Grace
4. Terry Balsamo of Evanescence
5. Chris Broderick of Megadeath
6. Brad Delson and Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park
7. Mike Deowolf and Steve Richards of Taproot
8. Ed Faris of Adema
9. Tom Fischer of Celtic Frost
10. Martin Hagstrom of Meshuggah
11. Dexter Holland, Greg K and Noodles of The Offspring
12. Steve Holt and Mike Whitney of 36 Crazyfists
13. Sean Kipe of Course of Nature
14. Munky and Fieldy of Korn
15. Mike Mushok of Staind
16. Josh Rand and Corey Taylor of Stonesour
17. Matt Roberts of Three Doors Down
18. Mike Thomson and Paul Gray of Slipknot
19. Dave Weiner, and Steve Vai himself!
20. David Williams, with Michael Jackson
21. and a lot more.

Here's hoping that some day, someone buys an ibanez and makes a list like this and it has my name on it, cheerio!
