The Law Of The Jurassic Period


Urusniaga aku dengan Dead Eye Guitars (my primary source for guitars) untuk GAX010LTD dah selesai malam Khamis lepas, sambil-sambil menjenguk VMNTx-UA.

Seperti model-model GIO yang lain, model ni tak datang dengan gigbag. Jadi aku order sekali dengan gigbag murahan Antler. Tak lupa extra D'Addario strings, dan capo cap ayam. Sebenarnya tauke DEG tersalah order gigbag untuk bass, sebab tu panjang.

Extra strings D'Addario .012-.052 jazz light gauge (apa kejadah aku order gauge besar ni?) dan capo cap ayam, memandangkan aku regular customer DEG (urusniaga keenam, gitar keempat), jadi aku dapat capo ni as a free gift walaupun pada mulanya aku order. Thanks bro!

"Here comes a stranger from strange distant past where the weakest link gets destroyed. It's voice is strong, and the scars on it's body tell of the intense battles it has seen. Once you step into the battlefield with this this stranger, you will never rest again."

- artikel dari website Ibanez.

Tak berapa nampak warna hijaunya...

Black non-glossy (satin?) headstock finish, and yes it's a GIO.
With cool sliding truss rod cover.

Made in Indonesia.

No inlays, just three red scars centering on 12th fret marker.
Reminds me of Les Pirate with red SX logo on it's 12th fret marker.

Bolt-on area with Ibanez engraved plate.

Powersound pickup (PSND), Ibanez generic fixed bridge,
3-way pickup selector, volume and tone knob.

Dari sessi "pandu-uji" dengan Behemoth + Sony MDR-XD100 headphone dan juga Micro-Cube (tapi impak bunyinya mungkin berbeza jika menggunakan amp besar 100+ watt), menggunakan factory setting (without any personal tweak) - bunyi yang dihasilkan oleh Powersound pickups agak berat dan tak jauh beza seperti Les Pirate aku dulu (dah let go).

Neck pickup bunyinya lebih bassy berbanding bridge pickup yang lebih nyaring, mungkin pickups heights belum optimum lagi. Clean sound? Bolehlah kalau setakat ikut standard aku, yang pastinya aku tak main clean guna gitar ni. Tapi kalau nak main clean jugak, ada baiknya ditambah dengan sedikit efek reverb atau delay dan amaun chorus yang bersesuaian. Atau guna apa-apa clean modelling kat amp atau pedal. In my case I used "JC clean" on my Micro-Cube.

Disebabkan bunyinya yang agak berat, ia amat sesuai untuk drop tuning. Setakat ni, aku dah cuba D-tuning dan C-tuning. D-tuning masih oke, tapi C-tuning agak kusam bunyinya (maybe amp related) dan banyak fret buzz sebab strings dah agak longgar. Nanti kalau ada masa aku nak buat eksperimen B-tuning guna string .012-.052 gauge (D'Addario string kat atas tadi) ala-ala setting 7-string minus higher E string.

Kaviti yang agak luas, berpotensi untuk upgrade
macam-macam di masa akan datang.

Might as well trying these simple guitar setup based on Bro Sub's thE guitaR addicT! entries (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 and Part 5).

Masa untuk nickname. Sewaktu berurusan dengan DEG, kitorang selalu istilahkan gitar ni dengan nick DINO. Dalam website Ibanez pun ia diistilahkan sedemikian rupa (probably a velociraptor). Dan disebabkan calar-balar merah yang agak gempak, jadi aku tambah SCARS kat belakang... So DINOSCARS, welcome to my collection. This Dinoscars was set in D-tuning for heavier mood.

[Edited 13/6/2010 8.28 pm] Tauke DEG baru nak buat entri pasal GAX010LTD ni kat blognya, here's the link.

-errmm sesuai untuk simpan bateri pick up emg tu....-

subversion.sg said...

ni isu bright/ mellow lebih ketara untuk acoustic guitar- boleh betul2 dengar brightness. tapi kalau dah kena electric guitar + effects, susah nak kedengaran...

jairo:
"...di masa akan datang", maknanya bkn dlm masa terdekat la...

bro sub:
