Who can do these mods?


I have the opportunity to purchase an RG7 for a dirt cheap price. I have some killer mods in mind & I need to know who I should go to to get this done. HELP! It seems LGM is pretty busy with his new Leviathan line & I'm not sure if EKG is currently doing any mods.

Here's my ideas...

Refinish with Emerald Green Flamed Maple Top on body & headstock
Creme binding on Body & headstock (white Ibanez logo)
Replace fretboard with Birdseye Maple fretboard w/ no inlays
Route pickup cavities for EMG707s
Fill in 5-way pup selector & replace with 3-way LP style pup selector

And lastly, could someone make up a mockup of this design? My home computer is currently offline & I can't upload that Kisakae (?) program on my work computer. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

There's a 6 string, I'm sure someone can make a better 7 string mockup:



I also couldn't find a headstock binding option, sorry...

Ooooo....me likey so far!

I haven't found too many people locally who could do a nice paintjob. From all of y'alls experience with mods, someone has to have someone to recommend.
