lol... I didn't mean to say it's cheap, but RM1k of the price that EQ said is quite a large sum...

wonder if bentley has stock for the new Jazz III picks.

i wonder who writes the press releases for dunlop tongue.gif

Dunlop Ultex Jazz III Guitar Picks let you dig in and grind, then jump to delicate, fluttering lines. Impossibly hard, yet absolutely responsive, these picks will reveal every flicker of emotion in your playing and still add brutal bite to the heaviest power cord you can unleash. Ultex picks are also virtually indestructible, hanging tough through countless pick slides, windmills, and other insanity.

The revolutionary Ultex material from which Jazz III Guitar Picks are crafted telegraphs the slightest contact, giving you an almost intuitive feel for the strings. With unprecedented resilience and snap, the Jazz III's release is so clean that individual notes sing out and artificial harmonics can be fired off at will. Practically weightless, with flawless, silky edges, the Ultex Jazz III doesn't emulate anything. It is the most versatile, expressive pick Dunlop has ever made.

Someone rather creative. To write something so erm well, boastful? about something relatively simple

i realized they didn't mention anything bout grip. hopefully they don't be as slippery as the jazz III which gets slippery when i sweat =(

Go...insanely slow at first. Play like your playing every note per beat. Then add it up, 2 notes per beat.

With practice,you'll own any sweep anytime rclxms.gif .

that depends on how serious you are. i've been playing around 11years on my own, at my own pace. sure, still not as good as i'd like to be. but that's only because i'm too lazy. laugh.gif .

...and yes, you have the learn the theory to improve. playing songs without knowing the basic theory is really a lost cause.

hey folks,

was at bentley, i found this ibanez RGR321EX, 24 frets, indon made, about rm1150. What are your opinions please?

user posted image


There are some cort axes going off slightly higher(maybe rm200-300 more), korean made, kx1 or something .. can't remember. Would this be better?

anyway, i assume better than those nameless, china made tongue.gif

Appreciate the inputs.

Thanks.

thats a pretty decent guitar.
the designed by ibanez EMGs that are on it, if not mistaken, are the very low end EMG select series.
but the guitar is cheap anyway, the neck feels pretty ok.
but what looks like neck binding i think is actually painted on fake binding, plus it just looks bad when both the 'neck binding' and body binding are a different color.
but then again, its cheap.

so yea, its cheap tongue.gif
neck feels good enough.
just change the pickups to something better and you're set.

but then again, if you're gonna change the pickups.
better get a SZ series, at least they come with decent duncan pickups.

and yea, cort would be a better buy.
they actually make guitars for ibanez, but since its called cort theres no real resale value.
kinda like samick and epiphone.
