Remember the Halo 3 X-shaped Ibanez Xiphos guitar that was given away in a few different contests to promote the release of Halo 3? Someone that won this electric piece of blue eye candy (his band placed second in the Halo 3 soundtrack competition) is now selling his highly coveted prize to pay for some studio time.

Featuring a mahogany body, this guitar has a “5-piece Wizard II maple thru-neck, bound rosewood fretboard with jumbo frets, reverse sharktooth inalys, Edge III floating tremolo, and a pair of DiMarzio D Activator humbuckers”. There were only 20 made so if you are a Halo fan that knows how to rock out, this item just may be for you.
UPDATE : This item sold for US $875.00.

Looks nice.
That’s the type of guitar you hang on the wall so nobody can touch it… EVER

As much as I love this guitar I must never be allowed to have it.
The reason is because I couldn’t resist trying to do this to it, and I would fail, and I would destroy such a pretty Ibanez.
Curse my inability not to tinker with technology.

Oh man I want that guitar so I can mod it into my GH3 controller and play the Mjolnir mix on it and reach Halo nirvana.

“if i ever FOR SOME REASON learned how to play guitar”
hmm….maybe it’s a better hobby than video games? it’s a lot less nerdy? girls like it? it lets you appreciate music more? it’s fun? it’s productive? holy hell…
it’s a sweet guitar, cool paint job…but i wouldn’t want to be a soloing advertisement for a game console, if i had won it i’d sell it & buy the red chameleon one
