Questions & Answers

Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?NATHAN S : I chose this specific guitar because it is the ONLY guitar presently sold that looks extremely similar to the 80’s Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion guitar. Alex Lifeson played the HRF on their Exit Stage Left DVD and for a couple tours back in the 80’s. In an interview with Alex, he said he was drawn to playing the Gibson HRF because he had been playing the Gibson 335/355...which would not normally be associated with a progressive rock band.Luke H : Hollow body/ semi hollow, single cut, fixed bridge. Ibanez makes really amazing Artcore guitars. So I wanted one.
