Help me design a cool RG style guitar


Hey fellas, want some input from the fine fellas here at Jemsite...man I don't frequent this place nearly as much as I should..

So here's what I'm going for:
A twenty four fret guitar
Rosewood/maple (haven't decided) board
RG style
Two humbuckers,
Single coil
Hard tail/fixed bridge

Going for a Paul Gilbert kinda vibe, the specs I've figured out but I can't think of cool design quirks/a color scheme...you guys got any cool ideas for me?

Re: Help me design a cool RG style guitar


Here's my two cents worth.

RG shape body but with the thinner profile of an S Series body.

Gibraltar Bridge.

Maple neck with a birdseye maple fingerboard.

Jumbo Frets

Reverse Headstock

Bridge Humbucker: DiMarzio Tone Zone

Neck Humbucker: DiMarzio Paf Pro

Tuners: Schaller

I'm gonna have to agree with him... that would make a damn nice guitar. Oh and please don't get dot inlays. That would just ruin it for me.

Agreed. I would go for custom inlays of some type. If you have to go for dots I would have them offset.

Forgot to add a single coil to my listing: BareKnuckle Trilogy Suite.

Get the dots all different colors, not just black. Then go with 2 hums, and a Les Paul switch. Then cover the pickguard with contact paper to make it look unique.
