man guys i just gott back from the pawn shop where my friend is a manager, i went in there just to look and im sure that you guys can relate to telling your wife its just to look lol, i set up alot of guitars for them that come in and have problems so ontop of my best friend working there i get awesome deals, anyway they just bought a ibanez its florecent pink its not a gem but i looked at a gem 777 and it has the same pickguard and the same floyd rose and the same neck minus the pyramid fret markers, it dont have the handle in the body oh and it does have a maple neck, but the weird thing is there is no model number anywhere on it, just says ibanez on the neck and on the neck plate, the electronics were replaced with emgs it has two double coils one at the bridge and one at the neck and a single coil in the middle just like the gem, and it is the same color as the hot pink gem 777, whoever wired the pickups didnt know what the heck they were doing because the only one that was working was the bridge so i fixed all that.they had the floyd rose pulled tight against the body instead of floating so i changed the strings and set it up realy good and it plays better than my new rg570 i just gott. im gonna try and find a new pickguard for it becaus ethe kid that had it put a hustler sticker on it and took a razor and carved around the sticker so to imprint hustler into the pickguard im hoping i can find one with some of the gem 777 florecent green pickups already wired in it.
the best part is i only paid what they paid for it 35 bucks and it came with a hardshell case, but what i was wondering does anyone have any idea what model this thing could be? i dont have any pictures to put up because my batteries died in my digi camera but i will put some up soon. also does anyone know where i can buy the pickguard and green gem pickups used or new dont matter. my friend is gonna make me some graphix that look like the yellow and green pyramids to put for fret markers for looks. but hey for 35 bucks who the heck can complain. thanks for reading. god bless flash the picture i ahve here is a picture of the gem it looks like or should i say is set up like.
