EGEN

EGEN18TVF – Herman Li is honored with the public release of his own signature model, choosing not to have his name emblazoned on it anywhere. His name may not be on it but his style is up front and in your face. Thankfully he chose a 24 fret S as this gave Ibanez the excuse it needed to actually release a 24 fret Japanese built S. Everybody that can appreciate this should say a big thank you to Herman. 5 piece E-Gen Prestige neck, mahogany body with flame maple top, unique "Kung Fu" grip on the upper horn [a little too small for my hands though] Jumbo frets on a rosewood board with the last 4 scalloped, Edge Zero Custom bridge with special springs only on the E-Gen requiring a different backplate, very nice oval abalone inlays [which I requested they use more of to a few ears at the show], Gold hardware, and Dimarzio HLM [Herman Li Model] pickup set, neck bridge and mid, with one of the most versitile wiring schemes available shown here, all finished in TVF [Transparent Violet Flat]. The info tag was missing at the show, which is usually where I get the info from since this was a TBA, with everything else to do I missed getting it. I’ll have it posted soon. List price, finally set at $3066.65, includes J Craft case.

Sam Totman

STM1WH - Herman's partner in crime get's his own model and obviously he likes Icemans! Mahogany body, 5 piece maple/walnut Wizard II thru neck, 24 Jumbo frets [the only 24 fret Iceman I believe made to date, possibly why Gilbert has a new Iceman model in the works, I thought for himself but after seeing this it just may be for general release], Edge 3 trem, Dimarzio Evolution pickups with the bridge a zebra. Available in WH [White]. $1066.65 List price, hardshell case is included. One of the few I didn't get the production country from, but my best at this price, it's Indonesian.
