Acoustic guitar Brass Pins

I seldom play the acoustic guitar but I do own one. On my guitar, I had Brass Pins installed instead of the usually bone or plastic pins. I found the original tone lacking in treble and hence i decide to replace the pins with brass for the increase in bell like brightness and response. It's a mod that is worth the money spend and it's isn't very expensive either. Do try if it you find the tone of your acoustic guitar lacking.

Ibanez Brass Guitar?

A while ago, like a long while ago, Ibanez once had really cool guitars. Not like they aren't making any not cool guitars now. They made a solid brass guitar which was suppose to be the center piece for the the '79 Chicago NAMM show. It sports an ebony board, Flying Fingers humbuckers, and active 3 band equalizer. This is apparently a very rare piece which is also the same guitar featured in Ibanez: The Untold Story. The first question however that comes to my mine is, how heavy is the guitar actually? Well nonetheless, I am sure that it is capable of producing sweet bell like tones due to the nature of brass.
