Sorry no pic. Want to know if mine is an 87 or not what its worth etc. It's black on black and the only id is on the inside of the neck joint where it is stamped rg550. The pups look to be the stock ones prior to the V1 V2 + V7 V8. Has a rosewood fretboard. No serial #. Has the angled neck...

Ok so I bought the Fernandes Sustainer Kit Fsk-401 and I figured that it would be set up just like Vai's FLO after its installed. But instead.. the Luthier came up with the idea of making a custom pickguard to hide some route work.. I was kind of Erie about the idea.. But I figured he knew...

Hello everyone, I was just wondering if any of you ever tried installing an EJ custom pickup on a prestige rg. In the neck or bridge position? How do they sound for shredding? Here is my thinking here: 1) I was going to switch out the Ibz/Dimarzio pickups with a paf pro in the bridge and yjm...

Is it that difficult? What places do you suggest for pickguards? Opinions and tips highly appreciated.

A custom pickguard for my RG255E arrived yesterday and I will be installing it this weekend, but I have some questions on shielding after reading a few old threads here. 1. Is shielding absolutely required - I mean is it a preventive measure or does it clearly remove all hum? 2. Copper or...

Seriously... Last week I got the craziest bout of GAS. I just wanted to buy something, I didn't particularly care what. I found myself, a lifelong strat player and tube snob, posting threads over at sevenstring.org asking for opinions on the Epi LP7's and the PodXT just for a late night...

For sale is a JEM / RG550 Pickguard 3-Ply B\W\B. It was custom cut for a JEM777SK project I was working on, but I ended up not needing it. It is not an Ibanez part, it came from a custom pickguard shop. There is no metal tape on the inside yet, and it has never been installed. Asking $30...

Hello there... I'm new to the forum, and got my first Ibanez today after being a Jackson and Fender user for years. I was forced to return my fairly new Jackson DK2M because there was a problem with the tremolo system I couldn't fix, and since DK2M's are out of stock in the UK I decided to buy...

Hey do you guys think that a JEM pickguard will fit a Ibanez GRG170dx??

Is there a lot of difference between different pickguards? Can I for example fit an RG550 pickguard to RG470 body? Wouldn't want any more modding than drilling holes for the screws. Thanks.

Is it possible for me to add a pickguard to an RG1570? I'm apprehensive about drilling anything into my guitar without reassurance. >_< I love the look of guitars with pickguards, and the RG1570 has everything I need. Or should I just go for the 2550 because it comes with a pickguard so I don't...

Hey does anyone have a template of an Ibanez GRG170DX?? I need it so Sharp Concepts can make a custom pickguard for it. If anyone has it just post it here or send it to mu email
