WTB Ibanez S7420FM with waves!

TMM · 07-09-2006, 12:47 AM

Hey guys!
I had one of these a little bit ago and should never have sold it. Would anyone be willing to sell one back to me? The waves are a dealbreaker for me, so sorry, but I'm not interested in the dot inlays. Let me know if you have one, and we can discuss price.
Thank you for your time!

Bump... anyone have one?

Mykie · 07-13-2006, 03:37 AM

I do, but I would never sell it, sorry bro, if i see anyone with one that is selling then ill hit you up

kentheterrible · 07-17-2006, 08:01 PM

i've got one but the same response. mine won't move unless a big number gets thrown at me. good luck in your search

TMM · 07-17-2006, 08:20 PM

As helpful as this is guys...

I think $600 is the most I could spend on one, knowing I'm going to tear it apart.

i don't know if you'll find a mint one for that price but if you're going to tear it apart then i guess the body needs only not to look like normandy on d-day. good luck though bro.

well, I got a mint one for $614 on eBay last year, but sold it to help pay for other ... :::cough::: Oni :::... things, and now I want to get one again for a project. I'm going to strip the paint to make it a dark trans red, and I'm also going to buy one of the new Giger S-series (with the nasty inlays), steal its fretboard, and add a little binding to the edges to make up for the width. This will probably take me a while, so I'm not really in a hurry, though I'd like to at least have the S7420FM sooner than later.

Lemme get this right, you *have* to have the dot inlays but you want to replace the fretboard? Why not just get a dot inlay model?

Oh, and those Geiger S series are a very limited edition and very expensive. I don't know what the US price is, but the UK retail is £3,300.

They're about $6k here, evidently. If you're buying one to use the fretboard on a project, then you're either crazy or price really isn't an issue on the 7420.

Also, if you're hoping to strip it and re-stain the flamed top, you may be about to bite off more than you can chew there, too - IIRC, it's not a tinted clear finish, the wood itself is actually stained. As such, you're going to most likely strip it down and still have a blue guitar, and red stain on blue guitar = purple guitar.

You might be better off grabbing a black 7420 and seeing if you can find someone locally to do custom inlays and put a flamed cap on it - not cheap, but way better than a $6k fretboard...

Wow. That's one serious project. I myself would just buy an S body off ebay and not ruin the S 7420.

I have a 22 fret Performance 7-string neck that is pretty much an Ibanez neck if your interested. It has the holes set up for a non-AANJ, ebony fretboard and small pearl dot inlays.
