Title - looking to change out the pickups on a fanned 8 I have and it seems that rewinding may be a simpler (and maybe cheaper) alternative to ordering a custom angled set.
If I was to commission this through someone like Lundgren, would it be as simple as saying "hey, make the bridge an M8 and...

Just wondering what my options are when it comes to fanned 8 strings that are affordable but still high quality. As much as id love a strandberg i just cant afford a $4000+ guitar. Ill probably end up going with the new ibanez multiscale 8 string. Any other suggestions? thanks.
I literally have soooo many bodies from Squier Strats that I have pillaged for parts, and I was tired of looking at the pile of them... So this happened. I know a forum member here who basically did the same thing, which was documented on a different forum.So, if you're watching, keep quiet.

Is there anybody in the Miami/surrounding area own a multiscale guitar? Doesn't matter if it is a 6,7,8 or 19 string guitar. I have been wanting to try out multiscale guitars for a while now and before I put the down payment on my custom Ran Guitar I want to kind of see how it feels before hand...
I have never played a fan fret guitar before and was wondering what the people who own them think of them.
Having only watched and heard others play them, I'm not entirely convinced of the benefits of a fan fret guitar. I would also like to hear from fan fret players regarding the ability to...
