Not only to Brazil but to the whole world.Almost everybody who uses wood is destroying the amazon forest,the whole world will suffer.Thank god cause when we finally had killed all nature,we'll die too,at least we won't go to other planets and kill them to.

my current Schecter V-7FR Hellraiser, but with better access to the upper frets, and a slightly flatter back of the neck, and maybe another inch on the neck scale (so 27.5" i guess, or 28" it's all good after 27")...then add in a piezo and the SPC and EXG circuits, and we're talking about a pretty wide ranging instrument in terms of usefulness

Lol, it's not their fault that our government lets our stuff be sold for cheap instead of encouraging us to use it, and preserving some of it too.

Back on topic:
V shaped guitar (kinda like the Ricco Jr Vixen but with a slightly different headstock)
Cedar Body
Flamed Koa top (matching headstock)
5 piece Maple/Mahog/Maple/Mahog/Maple neck (bolt on, but with a body/neck joint that feels just like a set neck, with rounded edges and so on)
Ebony Fretboard (no inlays, only green fluorescent side dots)
Trans green top, everything else gloss black except for the neck which won't be painted. Black binding on body and headstock

Hardware:
Planet Waves auto-trim tuners
Graphtech Tusq Nut
Original Floyd Rose equipped w/ Tremol-no & D-Tuna
Dome knobs
All solid black

Electronics:
2 Seymour Duncan Blackouts
3 way switch
Master vol, neck vol, master tone

Nope. I am saying that our people is stupid enough to let us have the leaders we have.

Our people is stupid enough to prefer to pay a retarded amount for a "foreign" instrument made with "our" woods instead of buying something with similar (if not better) quality from the Brazilian luthiers. I am talking about custom stuff here, not production guitars.

Here's a good one, and that's the guy that is going to make my guitar. It will cost less than 50% of the price of a top notch imported brand and it's just better built than any ESP, Jackson, Ibanez, Schecter, Gibson or w/e that I've played so far. The pictures speak for themselves, this guitar was built in 1994 for Edu Ardanuy of Dr. Sin when they had an endorsement contract w/ Dreamer Guitarworks. The pics were taken less than a year ago I believe.

Celso Freire Luthier

Also worth mentioning Perfect Wood, this guy is incredible too. A perfectionist.

That body with Q-tuners, 24 frets, ebony board, diff headstock, preferably natural with some crazy exotic wood with amazing figure.

And I would keep the scale on the original (30-27.5)

Agree but don't forget that brazilian guitars loose their retail price.I have some ibbz and esp guitars that I can make a really good money selling them.I'd only buy a brazilian luthier's guitar if I wanted it FOR LIFE.
But you know how our people suffer on politicians hands so it's better having a guitar that you could sell anytime you want than one ,wich was made for you,but NOT being able to sell it when you need to .:scratch:

Ok here goes. I have a few other ideas (due to the lack of pointy 7's floating around) as well, but this is the one I want the most:

Rhoads V shaped body, Tasmanian Blackwood (which is pretty much Koa) and quilt maple top, greenburst finish and abalone binding.
Bolt-on maple neck with pao ferro fretboard, 24 frets, baseball bat type shape.
OFR bridge in chrome
Schaller/Gotoh tuners in chrome
2 passive humbucker pickups (bridge sorta like a Duncan Custom and the neck along the lines of a Jazz/Full Shred, or maybe some Bareknuckles that are similar), maybe with a coil tap on the neck, 2 volume, 2 tone, 3 way selector and chrome hardware with white pickup rings.

RGRTA7!
satin swamp ash body, 5 piece maple/walnut neck with macassar ebony fb
27" scale (although I was too lazy to composite a neck from an RGXL...)
offset inlay on 12th fret only
reverse headstock
cosmo black hardware
BKPs
whatever bridge that comes on RGAs, as a 7 string version (they're comfy!)
