I want the white 1527M to compliment that too. I was thinking about naturalising the headstock when I get one, but then again, it's already got a Michael Romeo look that's pretty appealing.

Yeah, I wasn't too huge on the headstock of the 1527m at first, but the more I thought about it, with the white body and maple neck, a white headstock may be a bit much. I'd like to put that 1527m neck on the 1527gk, and then get a replacement neck for the 1527m body so it can stay maple too

Yeah, it never shows as well in photos as it does in person
The ash top on this guy looks greatYou can see a little bit of the figuring and how deep it is in this pic here (Along with my washburn 7 and a forest of guitars..
)
It's nowhere near as deep as the quilt on my explorer but it's damn nice

It pissed me off one too many times (cut out at the end of our last show) and cuts out regularly in practice.. I've spent enough time fixing it.. So last night, I lost my head with it and danced on it! Was quite satisfying to be honest, only regret is that we recorded alot of my band's album with it..

Or one that any less than privileged musician would love to have had.
I'm all for getting rid of gear you don't like, but not like that, 5 minutes with a soldering iron, or possible a pair of needle nose pliers could have saved it.

I see your points chaps.. I will do my best to restore it.. I regret it.
But I really did try with re-soldering.. I rewired it twice and change everything in it.. Just an extremely unreliable guitar. I bought it second hand on eBay and it was trouble pretty much from the start but I didn't complain as it was so cheap.

It sounds like something in there was loose. At most, some part of the electronics may have needed replacing.

That's what I thought. So when I put the EMG in I replaced everything in terms of wiring / tones pots and input jack.. So I'm at a lose to what could give the same issues after. All my leads / amps and foot stuff were cool and tested with another of my guitars..
I have taken it apart now and am organising a new neck as I type so it will be back in action soon enough.
On a side note, when I took the neck off I saw the body model was a RG 7421 and the neck was a RG 7621, what's that about?

That's just Ibanez, they do it all the time. Could have been a faulty switch, maybe the battery connection is faulty, maybe you suck at soldering and got a bad connection or bad earth somewhere. It would probably be worth diagnosing it with a test light or multimeter.

I see.. Defo wasn't my soldering dude, I've 2 other guitars that I wired perfectly. And I actually stripped the electronics down to a minimum in this guitar as I only wanted to use the bridge pickup, so there was no switch. I guess the battery could have been a point of failure but it was brand new. Either way, I've stripped it down now and fixing the damage done. Lesson learned.
