Pickup switching seems very cool.
Anybody have a guitar that uses it?

I'm going to get flamed for this, but I think it's very girlie looking to be a big hit, as 99% of guitarists are dudes.
She's a top player and deserves a sig model that's for sure. I'm a bit surprised that her and Josh Smith have gone with Ibanez though.
Not in my opinion. Gold hardware is intended to look "classy" or "high end"... Neither of which comes to mind when they start looking bad
I've been watching one just like the 1st one above for several months on ReverbA coincidence in contours and tint. Last year I was very close to pull the trigger for a Schecter PT Special or a PT Pro
But I finally got a very cheap (but outstanding quality) second hand Hallraiser C-1 Special and swapped the Pups for P90
I'm not really a fan of the relics (real or faked)... But at least in that case the whole guitar has the same look.
This one is still pretty classy lookin’ to me!
That pink Vai Pia is a no no for meTell that to all the JEM/RG guys who have been playing neon pink or floral pattern guitars for the last 34 years.

I newish guitar with oxidized and worn gold hardware just looks bad.

Nothing strange about this.Suhr has a terrible track record when it comes to keeping signature artists. Guthrie Govan, Tom Quayle, and now Lari Basilio. Their artist endorsement deal must be very poor compared to the competition.
Congrats to Lari on the sig. model. She's a great player and also comes arcross as a very nice person.
Ibanez high end hardware IS Gotoh.I haven't come across it. The Gotoh hardware on one of my Suhrs has also started to rub off. Most noticable on the volume knob and low E saddle. But that has taken years, not months.
Yes I know, hence my reaction to that his Ibanez showed wear so fast.Ibanez high end hardware IS Gotoh.

Yeah, that looks bad. My Suhr doesn't look anywhere near that bad. Weird, I must have gotten lucky with the gold on mine.Browse images of second hand Jem 7V and look at the bridge. It is very difficult to find one in decent condition.

Ibanez or Charvel (Fender) are much bigger companies compared to Suhr.
These companies can offer the artists deals/visibillity that Suhr can't compete with.
This is just how business works.
I prefer Suhrs to Ibanez really, Had over 20 Suhrs and they are still my favourites along with Tylers.
