mullmuzzler Posted November 5, 2003 Report Posted November 5, 2003 OK, In the Ibanez catalogue from 2002 in the "neck dimensions" under the "UV/RG7/K7" says that thickness is 21.5 and 23 mm at the 1st and 12th frets. Is is possible that they made mistake? Does the 7 string aquire thicker neck because of another string? Can it be thinner and maintain stability at the same time? I need dimensions of a Wizard 7 neck (thickness, width and radius) if any of you can provide. mullmuzzler | OSSMT Quote
Scott Rosenberger Posted November 5, 2003 Report Posted November 5, 2003 Thats correct! They're awefully thin. in fact the first 2 years the 7 string were made, they were even thinner Quote
mullmuzzler Posted November 8, 2003 Author Report Posted November 8, 2003 Looking at your avatar and judging by your projects, I would say that you are a hardcore JP fan!!! How thick is the neck on your JPM7, man? In fact, how thick are JPM necks (both Ibanez & EB/MM)? I've read in some interview that he gave to "Guitar Player" back in '93 or so that he used to play B.C. Rich guitars before he went to Ibanez and that those necks weren't thin as regular Ibanez production necks... mullmuzzler | OSSMT Quote
krazyderek Posted November 8, 2003 Report Posted November 8, 2003 i'm assuming you need the extra thickness to add stability to the wider neck so it doesn't warp or twist Quote
mullmuzzler Posted November 9, 2003 Author Report Posted November 9, 2003 I was going for 19 mm@1st fret anyway ... I like Wizard neck, but this time I'll try the thicker version... Just to se how it will turn up... mullmuzzler | OSSMT Quote

There was no Ibanez JPM-7string (not production anyway, a prototype or two exists though. Along w/ a prototype w/ a piezo) Quote
