    Omg want. If I ever for some reason learned how to play guitar I would get that guitar…it’s so…hot…

  2. XMixMasterX says:

    Looks nice.

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

  3. Avid X says:

    Omg that is so cool.

    Angel, working on getting download codes, currently they said its not possible. Also I updated the image for my gamerpics, there is actually a pink skull I specifically included for all my homegirls!

  5. Serge says:

    I think it looks awesome. I love the blue!

  6. Imy says:

    That guitar looks just awesome!!!

  7. Jim 028 says:

    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.

  8. MERLIN says:

    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.

  9. kelly says:

    I have one and Im selling it but it is a sweet Ibanez I hate to sell it but I could really use the money.

    OMG, it looks pretty cool, i have that in the green chameleon color and its beautiful.. Sounds amazing too. It has a fast neck and its great for solos.

    Come on how can anybody do this to a real guitar? I mean transform it into a guitar hero. Anyway nice guitar but I think if I would have it I would look to much addicted to halo so…

    “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

  13. Being a shredder for my band-that guitar is mine!

  14. I really need that thing. The tres trem is the best system for floyd rose like action-no even better that floyd rose action. I’ve played Ibanez Tres trem,s and they’re the most fun tremolo tricks I’ve ever used. I just wish that xiphos was mine. I’m practically foaming at the mouth. If I won It would be the first baddass guitar I’ve ever owned.

    Ibanez Trems are decent. OFR are the best, or a Kahler. The ZR Trems by Ibanez are pretty damn good though.

    pfft… its worth more than that…. i own one
