If you are willing to do some work yourself, buy a body with no bridge or pickup routes

Measure 25.5 in. from the nut, and place your bridge there, and route the pickup cavities yourself.

I highly recommend Denny over at mojobodies.com.

He made me a fixed bridge RG body out of Black Korina for a 22 fret Carvin neck and it turned out great.

Here is a link to the body he made me:

I haven't finished it (in fact I've barely started it). I can post a pic when I finish it.

The body is great though, first class work.
