I've got this Ibanez neck here, evidently from 1990 (F006999). The markings on the neck (which my POS Gateway camera just would not capture) say "WALRJ-T24" . I had expected it to say "RG-750" , like an RG normally does (My other 750's, 760's and 770's all said RG-750, and my 550 says RG-550).
Also, if you can tell from the pics, the holes have been filled and redrilled, and a quarter inch of the neck has been filed off to accomodate a non-Ibanez pocket.

Any thoughts on the markings?




thanks folks,

jim

Both my 88 and 89 RG7xx guitars have this on the neck heel. The late 80's 540 Raduis and Saber necks I've seen on **** have had something similar as well.

Based on Rich's info the bunch of times this has come up, and the slightly different codes on other necks:

WALRJ-T24 = Wizard(Profile) Angled(Headstock) Locking(Nut) Rosewood(Fretboard) Jumbo(Frets)- Teeth(Inlays, every neck I've seen with the T has the Sharkteeth) 24(Number of frets)

What does the letter G mean stamped to a neck? I have two twenty-one fret Ibanez necks taken off of 540s or s540 or 540 sabre guitars, whatever they're called. one says :

(in red) G (in black) WALRI-T

I think this one is ebony with sharkstooth inlays and fully bound.

The other:

(in red) H (in black) WALRI-R(then in pencil?) t

This one is reverse headstock with rosewood fretboard and dots, no binding.
