My New Guitar: Ibanez JPM7 (Update:Video Content)


Hi folks,

Let me introduce my new-old guitar. JPM7



It was once an Ibanez RG7321 which was made in Ind. 2007. Those days, i had a band and we played prog metal mostly so that i needed 7th string vibe to our tunes. But days passed and i found myself not using this guitar anymore and to bring back life to my guitar, i decided to refinish it into old ibanez JPM picasso graphic which i always love. I picked P3 in black and white one.
