Thanks for the nice words about my new guitar everyone!!! I love it!!!!!!
the body is a Quilt Maple top with Mohagany back, The nut is graphite and it stays in tune very well, but you have to file them the right way for it to work correctly. The pickups will be Bareknuckles but I didn't have a chance to get them from Tim before the guitar was ready, so I had Ibanez throw in a Dimarzio Evo and Airnorton in the mean time. I will post real pics when I get the reast of my gear ready for photos as well (these were taken with my phone camera).

Take care, Chris.

Very cool! Welcome to the boards Chris!

Are you sticking with the Nailbomb/Cold Sweat combination or are you going to try something different?

Chris - you're an absolutely fantastic guitar player. I don't even like most shred guitar stuff but your playing truly impresses me

THAT'S ACTUALLY THE FIRST ARCH TOP RG BODY STYLE I THINK I'VE EVER SEEN.:metal:

EVEN WITHOUT A LOCKING NUT, WITH A GOOD TREM NUT & A GOOD SET OF LOCKING TUNERS, ALONG WITH A STRAIGHT STRING PATH ON THE HEADSTOCK, & THE TREM CAN STAND WITH THE BEST OF WAMMY ABUSERS.

I'VE PLAYED SOM EBMM JPM'S THAT WERE SET UP AWFUL, & I'VE PLAYED SOME THAT YOU COULD YOUR VAI-WORST ON THE WAMMY & NEVER GET IT OUT OF TUNE.

Thanks again everyone!!!

This is a killer forum and I will have to make it here more often. before I got this guitar I really wanted a J.Custom 7, but when I mentioned it, Ibanez was kind enough to build a guitar for me to my spec (a couple of things you can't see in the pic is, that the freeboard is actually bound in quilted maple, the frets are the tallest you can get but still narrow in width, and I had a kill switch put on for rhythmic volume cutting ideas I have with a simple volume and three way pickup switch). Everything else on this guitar was built with the same spec as the 1527.

I wish that my guitar was a production model because I do think a lot of people would like it, but as we all know even getting any new stuff for 7 strings these days is difficult( I was surprised to see that Ibanez went out and did the Z-lock trem for a 7). I know there are people that work at Ibanez that come to this board but I don't know if they have any design say (let’s hope so).

Chris.:shred:
