wouldn't mind tryin to find an invader. I think Adrian smith from iron maiden played one on their number of the beast tour...


Can anyone Validate this :huh: :hyper:

I would love to know if an Invader was used for "The number of the beast" tour or album.... that would be so cool! 8-)

P :wink:


Check out the VH1 number of the beast there's lots of tour footage and he plays a guitar that looks just like the invader and I always wondered what it was!!

...Do the Japanese models carry a heft price tag and how do they compare to an ESP?...

Find one, go there, bring an experienced friend along for a second opinion. Feel her, play her, hear her. Then YOU decide what the guitar is really worth (to you). ESP? :dunno: ,but a VERY experienced friend of mine would trade me his PRS (and not the cheaper kind) in a heartbeat, if I would offer him a mint Vantage VA800 ... :wink: Never let anything or anyone tell you howmuch a good guitar is worth, especially no dumb decal! :no:


And don't forget to bring your fav practice amp too cause an awesome amp can sometimes make a [Foul Language Used] guitar sound not half bad!!!

I cannot view the VH1 video's from here, but most of the footage I found from around 1982, he's playing an Ibanez Destroyer ...

Adrian is one of my favourites from that era. Ibanez is the only "off brand" I've seen him play.
