DaLi Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Hi All, After a week of waiting I finally received my Ibanez SR655e and I couldn't be more happy! It feels like the body was moulded just for me. As a bonus it also came strung with flats so I get to try flats! Excuse my poor photography it's not my forte 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nos Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Looks good! Got the 4 string version of this and been playing it for a few years now, doesn’t look as nice as yours does though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_S Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Nice one! I've got the lighter "natural flat" finished version and it's a great instrument. Can't go too far wrong with an SR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree I think Ibanez may have just won themselves a fanboy with this one! Would love to see pics of yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the 4 string version of this and been playing it for a few years now, doesn’t look as nice as yours does though. Yeah this one has rocketed itself up to the No1 position for me! Do you find you have a volume difference between the P and the J pickups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edstraker123 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I used hydrate on the fretboard when I got mine as it looked a little dry. I then tried a little bit on the back of the body to see how it would come up and it looked wonderful, so I sparingly gave it a once over. It now has a very subtle shine but it does make the grain on the thing really pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already a hardcore Ibanez fan, as I have about a dozen, incl 6 SRs (+ a BTB and an ATK). If it's fine after work tomorrow I'll take some pics, make a NDB thread and link to it here.
