Custom Shortscale Ibanez Shredder

JShred · #1 04-26-2009, 09:31 PM

Anyone have any recommendations for a custom outfit that would be able to put together a custom Ibanez clone, RG style or JEM style, that's 24 frets on 24.75" scale?

I've been collecting guitars with those specs for some time, but I'm also an Ibanez shredder at heart, and I'd always loved the idea of a Wizard profile neck on Les Paul scale, with a trem and two humbuckers.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Ishibashi Original model IRG 5150, it's anormal RG but 24,75' scale.
I owned one before.
Maple neck/board, quilted maple top on the body.
good luck on finding one...

Jaden,
I'm a yank, but I'm never opposed to a "cracking good" Brit custom.

Matter of fact, I was looking at a 24 fret Maverick shredder in Les Paul scale when they seem to have just disappeared. Wonder where they went.

Hi JShred,

did you find any?

I would love to find a short scale S-Series, since I am more used to the Les Paul scale. I play 008-strings for lower string tension on my S-Series, but that certainly is much different...

Best Regards,
Vince

Warmoth offers 24.75" conversion necks that'll bolt right on to any standard Strat heel.

Thanks dcord,

but the neck pocket on an S is quite special, since it is not symmetrical, isn't it? Or wouldn't that cause any problems?

Best regards,
Vince
