Happy new year fellow IC’ers ! :-)

Coming to 10 years I’ve had this baby, the hardware has been ageing beautifully - note the copper oxidation on the left part of brass string saddle has made it look silver.

Would be cool to see if your IC’s have similar cool relic quirks ...

I’d love to just have a go on an Iron Cross. I’m sure they feel very nice.

Hi guys I'm slowly starting to collect guitars and I've been wanting to get the white Iron Cross. Any inputs regarding feel and sound? Worth the price? I just find it so beautiful plus I'm a huge Hetfield fan. Thanks guys.

I'm the same way about the "GRYNCH" I sold.

I bought one new when they came out and ended up selling it a few weeks later. Just didn't gel with it at the time. Regret it and have been looking for another but every one for sale seems to be WAY overpriced.

Hope you find another black ESP IC Sean!

Yeah, miss mine as well. Sold all JH models I owned and kept only a LP. Have to say IC was out of this world and Truckster is generally underrated, great guitar.

One thing is definitely in common, all the ex original IC owners always say they miss their guitars.

Which is why I made my comment. lol

They definitely look great and although I haven't had the pleasure in playing one yet, I am sure they are awesome.

The main thing for me was the SS frets. I never had a guitar with SS frets and wow... just wow. Played and sounded insane. I found I had to go up a gauge in strings for each tuning because of the SS frets on the black Iron Cross.

Hello everyone,

I recently purchased a 2009 IC Distressed Black and I have a question from other Distressed Black IC owners: I do know being rusty is part of the design but I wanna make sure this "amount" of rust on the bridge, tuners or else is normal and part of the design, or it’s actually eroding and I have to do something about it! Please see the following pics.

Thanks!
