Mick Thompson in Guitar World Nov 2004




I just bought the Nov 2004 issue of Guitar World today. I've been getting into Slipknot's music lately after a friend of mine was playing one of their CD's. There is an ad on page 5 for Ibanez Guitars which has a picture of Mick Thompson of Slipknot holding a new Signature guitar with the word SEVEN spelled out on the first five frets. What happened to the Mick 7 HATE Warlock he did with B.C. Rich guitars?

I checked out the Ibanez Guitars website. Not alot of information on there about it yet.

There is a small image of him just like ad holding the new Ibanez guitar. There was also this information :

Band: Slipknot
Model(s): Custom RGT2020, Custom S1625
Recent Album: Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)
Effects: TS808

I wonder if his Ibanez TS808 is an original or a
Ibanez TS808 Vintage Tube Screamer Reissue
