So the neck is not original? Why's that?

Also this is a question for both your radius's (er radii...). Are the frets worn out at all?

[ashbass]

Neck is not original because this guitar was one of the ones that I've kept for a while and was going to be a long time keeper. I don't like the necks that come on the Radius series and put this Saber wizard on instead. The original neck is long gone on another Radius I've had and sold. There is no fret wear at all on this neck. See the other post for info on that guitar.

Does it need a setup? How does it play?

I wish I had the extra cash right now. That a beautiful guitar!

Like I said, it's been a keeper of mine for a good while. I plays wonderfully and does not need a setup unless you want to use a different gauge of strings. I think I have 11s on it now.

Last update before going to that auction site.

--NEW--
$475 shipped to cont. US

Your choice of neck:
'UPro 540R' from an '87 540R
'Pro 540P' wizard from an '87 or '88 540 Power
'Wizard' from a '91 Saber

Super rare Ibanez padded gig bag. Vinyl suitcase style. I've never seen or heard of another one. See photos.

----

The Pro 540R neck is the neck model that I have on all of my keeper Radius guitars. It is thinner than the stock 540R neck and feels much more in keeping with such a sleek body as the radius. This neck has had a small nut-screw crack sanded down and thus the little bare spot behind the neck you'll see in the photo below.

The Pro 540P neck is a Wizard from an '87 or '88 Ibanez 540 Power guitar. This is the very original Wizard made with 22 frets. Very slim and very fast. There is a finish split going toward the headstock from the top screw hole that is not able to be seen in the photos. There appears to have been a crack at the heel that was repaired before I got the neck. I've used this neck for a few years now with 11 gauge strings and there has been no issue.

The 540S wizard neck is what's on the guitar in the photos below. It is a '91 wizard and is a little thicker than the 540P neck. Zero fret wear. Faint finish splits behind nut as seen in photos above.
