So I found out today that Ibanez now has a wizard III neck. I checked out the spec sheets from the Ibanez Wiki, and saw this:
Wizard II
Year: 2010
Scale: 648mm/25.5"
Nut Width: 43mm
Width at last fret: 58mm
Thickness at 1st fret: 19mm
Thickness at 12th fret: 21mm
Radius: 400mmR

and this:

Wizard III
Year: 2010
Scale: 648mm/25.5"
Nut Width: 43mm
Width at last fret: 58mm
Thickness at 1st fret: 19mm
Thickness at 12th fret: 21mm
Radius: 400mm

The hell?

I think last year though, they called the 58mm ones Wizard II also.
It looks like all the necks on Jems & RGs are all 58mm...why is Ibanez forcing these wider necks on us? ...no wonder everyone likes the older Jems and RGs better - because the necks were more comfortable with 56mm & 57mm widths...you wouldn't think 1 or 2mm would make much of a difference but it does...
