There are a few more from-scratch builds, but they are mostly just normal Tele or Strats
This is a custom body shape a buddy and I came up with. Mixture of a Travis Bean style bout with Fender Lead series horns. I made mine tangerine and his jet black.

I love how the neck turned out. I used the Ernie Ball method of Tru Oil and Wax. I highly recommend the roasted necks. i lover how dark the are and they resonate wonderfully. This put together very nicely and required very little tweaking.

I always wanted to get a neck from Perle Guitars. It kills me how little Ibanez does with maple fretboards. If you don't mind me asking, what was the wait on the neck/body?

I have a Perle body and neck (on separate guitars) in my pics and two more necks on the way. I bought the body right off ebay. I had to wait about 3-4 months for the neck.
For me it's hard to find a 7 string neck with a maple board AND a strathead AND they build them to the IBZ specs. I definitely dig the neck.vultures":1ul7jc6y said:PeteLaramee":1ul7jc6y said:vultures":1ul7jc6y said:drewiv":1ul7jc6y said:Body & Neck by Perle Guitars

That's not a bad wait at all, I may pick one up in the future. Always wanted to pick up a nice neck to slap on a RGA body, but all the nice JEM necks have locking nuts![]()

It seems they mostly does Ibanez headstocks, but will sell paddles too. I have no idea if they're licensed. I had them do strat headstocks for me, but they had never done them before. I just rec'd my most recent order of two 7-string necks made to UV/RG7620 specs (but with the stratheads). I believe it took just under 5 months.vultures":ikwc1jk4 said:drewiv":ikwc1jk4 said:Body & Neck by Perle Guitars

I had a question or two about your experience with Perle Guitars.. Did he cut the headstock of the neck to Ibanez shape? Or does he only do paddles for legal reasons? Also, I assume Joe Morris added the Ibanez decal to the headstock?
