RG Body and Headstock
Neck thru body
26" Scale
Maple Walnut 5 piece neck
Ebony Fingerboard no inlays
Full Scalloped FB
Blue LED Side Dots
Flame Maple Top
Trans Blue
White binding on body neck and headstock
Mahogany Body
OFR Bridge with Piezo and Tremol no
Jumbo Frets
Angled output jack like UV's
Bare Knuckle Pickups Miracle Man in Bridge and Cold Sweat in Neck (White Bobbins)
Pickups wired like John Petrucci's guitars
White Speed Knob for volume No Tone
Killswitch
3 way LP Toggle switch


Basically I want a really nice looking guitar with the capability of shredding very nasty and able to pull off clean songs as well. bridge pickup is made for mahogany and Tight Bass just the way I like it and the neck pickup has the tone I desire in clean and soloing. Also I hate acoustic guitars due to their extremely large body so the piezo makes acoustic playing much easier on me.

Some kind of fanned fret conklin. Not sure specs. Until then, my UV7BK works well enough.

Hey, not a bad idea.. A semi-hollow, with a cork as the upper strap button, the cavity filled with alcohol. Every time you take a sip, it'll sound a tad better, and even if it doesn't it appears to do so to your ears. :lol:

Nah, really, today I'd fancy a:
ESP Horizon style body, mayhaps I'd go with alder
Ebony fretboard, none of them inlay thingies, but some binding
A floating bridge that will still function in 40 years
Neck and Bridge pickups, probably smething "classic"
I suppose a volume control can come in handy.
And it's not black. I don't care if it's bright yellow. as long as it isn't black.

Thin mahagony S style body with sharper rg horns,
Neck through,
super thin neck with a mild 27 or 28 -25.5 fanned fret setup.
6105 fretwire,
very slight 12-24 scallop,
Double edge trem,
roland gk midi port,
two dimarzios,
lots of knobs and switches,
trans black finish, black chrome hardware. Custom logo on headstock

ive never tried one of those sustainers, but if they are anything like having a built in ebow id have to want to throw one of those in also. This might not be a realistic build of a guitar. Lot of electronics in a smalll body. but dreams never make sense. The guitar should also include a pussy magnet.

Dream guitar right? anyone wanna build it for me?

I always post this. I'm one of the lucky few that already owns my dream guitar - or, as I call it, my "coffin guitar". ;)

Someone posted a pic of 8-string Fender Strat...I though it was a dream...no, I realized I was conscious because of the 8 strings...7-string vintage white Fender Stratocaster that is MY dream.
