    Ok, I don't know if any of you guys from the UK have noticed these guys on e-bay? Basically they're a dealer for the North-West based in Liverpool. You'll know who they are because they've got about 10-12 early Ibanez guitars listed (all with a mark-up of about £200 more than what you should...

    Ok so I have a question, and I think I already know the answer but since I never did this I thought I'd ask and hope, maybe I'm wrong. Ok so I want to try bigger gauge strings and try a lower tuning, maybe D or C. The guitar in question has a floating trem of course, its a RG 2550 with...

    Back in the day I bought my RG1570 used, it was shipped without the tool for adjusting the trussrod. Now with my own socket tool I can adjust the trussrod only when all strings are taken off which is no way good because we need strings to be in tune to adjust the trussrod! Where do I can get an...

    I've got a few problems I'm hoping you guys can help me out with... 1) My main RG has a floating trem that I'm tired of and really don't utilize. I'd like to block the trem. I've heard people recommend using a 9V battery to block it, but there doesn't look to be enough space to fit a 9V in...

    I can't find anywhere, what size wrench a Jem takes? I have looked everywhere, the Ibanez site doesn't even have a contact email. Anyways, I know I can get an answer here. I dont know that it matters but my jem is from 1990. I need a truss rod wrench and im not sure what size it is out of these...

    If 2 truss rods are to be used on a 10 string neck, 35" scale, 36 frets, are there any noticeable differences in effect if you mount the Rods parallell to the center line, or in line with the centerline of each respective neck-half?

    So, I've been fighting with the intonation of my 77FP for a long time. Just can't get it right. I've adjusted everything I've dared but still. The problem is with the higher strings. Notes sound good below the 14th fret but out of tune above it. I've set the intonation for the 12th fret. But...

    When I first saw that Ibanez were re-releasing the classic 550DY from the 80's I thought "cool! I used to have one of those". But when I saw the price I thought "hold on, I can buy the ORIGINAL in decent condition for £300-£400 why should I spend nearly £1000 ON THE SAME THING". Big problem is...

    Hello. I'm curious to know if their are any straight forward, simple ways to tell if your truss rod is broken (I said from 'a guitar you acquired' in the title because I'm not talking about snapping it when you're making an adjustment). Does the rod move loosely in the neck or anything like...

    Last year i heard a rumor that there was some guy who made guitars and bases, but until last friday i started to believe, the guy is a luthier that mades guitars and bases by hand!!! a hand made guitar or bass its truly a craftmanship effort. Here is the link, check it out and feel free to give...

    Ladies and gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to introduce to you, for the first time, The Power Jem. All rise for the honorable Power Jem! Ahhh, catch title huh? So I was thinking. I'd really like one of the old 540Ps, but so very few are on the bay. And the ones that are end up going...

    most ibanez guitars have wizard necks. these necks are set and cant be adjusted. so over time would the neck just warp?

    Apparently they're quite important in keeping the neck playable n'stuff but i cant understand what they do exactly if you have a locking trem... I mean how can the truss rod affect the strings at all if they're locked in position ? ?
