FOR SALE Custom Shop IBANEZ PGM1963 OWNED and PLAYED by PAUL GILBERT from MR.BIG Paul Gilbert about this guitar:
    "It's a custom-shop Ibanez PGM1963. It is the guitar that I used for the majority of the "Getting Heavier" record, but when I first got the guitar, the brown finish was darker than I wanted, so the custom shop made another body. I had lost my taste for brown, so I went with a red stain instead. It's hard to see the details in the photo, but you can see the wood grain on the real guitar.
   The real stand-out feature of the guitar is the neck. It's an V-neck, and nice and thick (for tone and sustain.) Right before that record, I was living in Japan, and I bought a vintage acoustic guitar with a V-neck. I really liked the acoustic (I used it in on "Acoustic Samurai"), so I thought it might be cool to have a similar V-neck on a PGM electric guitar. Basically, it's a great, chunky neck with tall frets and super low action. The pickups are DiMarzio Air Classics." INCREDIBLE CHANCE!!! ONE OF A KIND GUITAR!!!
