  1. my RG has an old strat type neck joint, i may just try the warmoth's neck... yeah, i asked warmoth if they could cut the headstock to a RG's shape, and am willin to pay some extras, and, as alway, no relies at all, i mean...at least, if they cant do it, just say it...
  2. what i thought is if i put a strat neck on the RG body, the 22 fret will be closer to bridge than the original neck's 22 fret.. but now am confused again..... basicly i wana a straight-head neck, and narrower nut, the original wizard neck is great, one piece maple, and the fingerboard is really flat, but i have played a strat all the time for past one yr, and just cant get used to the Wizard now.. but i really liked how the RG sounds with pair of PAF-PROs, i thinkprobably becoz the basswood body, i always find the alder body sounds little too bright... most wizardII necks on ebay have AANJ joint, my RG has an old squere joint, i think i probably just order a neck from warmoth and convert the RG to a fixed bridge, re-locat the bridge's position, tough work for me though...
  3. cheers, guys, thanx alot i get it now, the ibanez neck join the body at 17 fret, and i looked a 22fret start, and the neck joined the body at 16 frets... i wish ibanez didnt make this 1 fret difference when they started the RG series.... i emailed warmoth again yesterday, see if they can make me a RG shap body with a correct bridge routin... but am not too positive, coz i asked them same thing a yr back but didnt get any replies.. anyway, i think i have to give up on warmoth's neck, do you guys know any shop would make custom necks and ship international? i know LGM makes ibanez replacment necks but their site seems down recently.. thanx for the help guys
  4. new to the board am planin get a replacement neck for an old ibanez RG550 (which has an standard neck joint). i started by lookin on Warmoth's site and decide to get a 24 frets start neck, so i emailed one of the stuffs with a drawin of the RG body and asked him if the neck would fit, he told me the brige position on my RG is WRONG, and if i put a strat neck on it, it will not intonate properly. as far as i know, both RG and Strat have 25'1/2 scale length, so the neck could be used on both of them, if the bridge position on myRG is WRONG, the original ibanez neck wouldnt intonate properly either... am really really confused.....
