Thanks Dude!

I have three lap steel guitars...SX 3 six string $120 and SX 8 eight string $230 from Rondo out of New Hampshire...and a Rogue six string bought on Amazon... China made but not bad...I was able to upgrade the Rogue with a pickguard kit that had better pots and Seymour Duncan '57 Tele pickup..I don't like the IYV lap steel only that they don't have proper tuners meant for lapsteel...

Tuners are easy to replace. I have a Cozart 6 string lapsteel and I would love to have an 8 string.

They have a mustang style guitar on Amazon that im interested in. Great video.

Buy now dude. The price never get much lower that $122. It could dip a few bucks lower but can also go up

Your reply is a great excuse to buy. Cheers!

Some guy with a problem with a return shut down the IYV Reverb store with what I feel are unreasonable complaints. Thanks, buddy. The eBay store is still available. I hope they can get the Reverb store back, but it looks like one guy ruined it for the rest of us.

That sucks man! I hope they get back on Reverb soon.

I have the green LP like yours...I found the website but you're right no way to buy from that site. Reverb doesn't have the guitars you showed, they only had 15 items.I have them in my cart on ebay but they're around $300.00; the guitar is a steal at $148 but the shipping is $156 last time I checked. There are 3 of these bad boys that I've got my eye on...lol. My wish is that Amazon would buy a large quantity wherein the shipping would be cheaper.

I too would love if Amazon had more, they are great guitars.

Actually your cost from IYV (via Reverb) is quite a bit less than Wolf/AIO - like $150-200 less all in. Wolf/AIO is like $470 and higher now. IYV also makes for ESP/LTD. For sure have made some Harley Bbenton models (not sure if they do currently though)

Thanks man, that's good to know. I'll have to take another look at Wolf and compare.

Juat found out about these, but they dont seem to be available anywhere, the ebay IYV store says it's closed til March 4th, do they shut down for chinese new year? Or maybe only release them in batches? I'm itching to get one!

It's too bad they don't have the Thomann deal where you can get two guitars for one shipping charge.

@@JoeHopkinsmusic Seriously, with the shipping so high, I would buy 2 -3 guitars to get the best deal on shipping. I'm not saying they should cut into their profits to do this. It's just that usually shipping works that way, where a 20 lb box doesn't cost much more than a 10 lb box. IMO, they'd make more money because they'd be moving more guitars.

Jesus Christ...up until this video I thought they were called IVY guitars, and that's why they chose that hideous green for their Les Paul, lol. I'm an idiot.

I thought the same thing. On Amazon they’re listed IVY. I only learned better a little while ago.
