I'm trying to build or find a strat with a maple neck, and just a single coil in the neck and a humbucker in the bridge with a trem

any manufacturers out there already doing that? or must i resolve to frankenstrat style =)

any ideas?
thx

one of the joe satriani ibanez models has that exact set up. i watched a youtube video about it and joe said he wanted a single coil in the neck because this guitar has 24 frets, which i guess his other ones don't have, and he thinks a single coil compensates for the tone of the neck p/u being moved back a little bit because of the extra frets. it has a mo'joe in the bridge, which i have in my RG 520 and i love that p/u.

**edit , didn't see the post on the rgr 465 before,

any reason why there's no info on the ibanez site about these guitars?

http://www.musik-schmidt.de/Ibanez-RGR-465-M-SOB.html

i can't deal with that blue tho lol

think the red is killer:

I believe I read that it was/is a limited edition for the EU market, but I'm not 100% about that.

yeah it's a limited run only made in 2010 ,

http://ibanez.wikia.com/wiki/RGR465M

i've found it new through fleabay for 480 euros (everywhere else is around 550 + excl shipping) , might just pull the trigger on this one although i shouldn't heh, soup for a few weeks

what the fuck is this crap? lol
get the JS 2400 with the mo'joe in the bridge and maple neck.
it's mahogany!!
i want this guitar ...so bad... lol
i want to take it in my hands and tweak it, and molest it, and bend it to my will lol
the mo'joe in the bridge makes this guitar- a mahogany guitar- bark like a les paul - and then you have the single coil in the neck....
GET THIS GUITAR dude lol...

heh, well undoubtedly the js2400 is made better and probably better tones, but at 3-4 times the price, and i'm not a particular fan of satch, great guitarist tho

i just want a shred machine metal wankfest heh and the rgr465 ticks too many boxes , for real tones i prefer set neck/fixed'through bridge anyhow =)

yeah really seems like a cool guitar, don't have that kind of money to spend tho

1991 RG565`s. These are my favorite guitars, i absolutely love the feel of the maple Wizard neck in those years and the SC/HB config is killer. Didn`t know witch color to get so i got them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Charvel Warren DeMartini Snakeskin has this config. The RTM Duncan Humbucker in the bridge and the Quarter Pounder in the neck slot.
 
Hands down my favorite pickup configuration for hard rock. A few of my examples:

moaarrr gas =0

killer pic with the 4 rg 565s , i had a look to try and find one used but they're above 700 euro from what i've seen although i'm sure they can be found for less

I used to have a prestige s2170 that had the wizard 2 neck(5pc however) which i really liked, the guitar just had no flavour, so i pulled the trigger on the rgr .. it's not too much of a hit financially, and hopefully some of my gear will sell lol

curious to see more guitars

the caparison horus is another option and looks sick

but at that kind of money (around 2300 euros..) i think i'd be looking at a suhr or something instead =)

I have one of these Music Zoo natural Koa's and its set up with a Hum and one single.

You could get a HSS Fender and get a pickgaurd with only a bridge Hum and neck SC cutout. Just leave the middle SC empty and covered...
 
This is my Fender Strat 60th an. US Deluxe FMT.

It kicks serious ass. So versatile, and stays in tune too!

Ever thought about something like a Custom 24, where you can split the humbuckers so you always have a choice?

nice =0

well i have actually, but then like i said we're talking a different kind of guitar at that stage

after thinking it through i just want a guitar for metal/shred/crazy whammy bar stuff as i sold the ibanez prestige S i had, maybe after having the RGR for a while i'll change my mind ;)

i prefer to have separate guitars that do their own thing really well than one guitar that tries to do all of them (i'm speaking of my own guitars i'm sure there are guitars that do a really good job of this), i sold my gibson nighthawk for that same reason

i tend to gravitate to my thinline tele for more varied tones, or another guitar i have setup with a p90 neck/splittable PAF bridge

that is actually pretty much exactly what i want

exclusive charvel builds - a shame it'd cost around 2k euros to get that over here/shipped

Damn there`s an emerald green 565 for sale in Montreal right now for $425!

I might snatch it.
