Paul is shown in this image posing with his PGM700. According to Ibanez's official product page, Paul says "It's actually a really great sounding guitar. It also has DiMarzio Super Distortions. It looks really cool. There's nothing like it. There's not too many violin-shaped guitars out there. I used it a lot in the studio and live. It got a lot of stage time with Mr. Big as well."
