FS: Ibanez LA Custom Shop 7 String

atquinn · 06-06-2006, 12:20 AM

This is a 2004 LA Custom Shop 7-String Ibanez guitar that was made for Dave Fiuczynski (go to www.torsos.com to hear some of his cool music). This guitar is unlike any other Ibanez 7 string. Here are the features:

Serial#: LA082404

Body: Korina body, Flamed Maple top, cream binding

Neck: Korina with bubinga reinforcement strip, rosewood fretboard (seemingly picked to match the body color), Sperzel locking tuners, jumbo frets

Bridge: This has what I like to call the "Matte Henderson-style 7-string bridge". The top 6 strings are on a 2-point trem bridge, the 7th string is fixed. This gives the low string better tone and it makes it easy to drop it down a step without disturbing the tuning of the other strings.

Pickups: 59-7 neck, JB-7 bridge, Seymour Duncan custom 7-string single pickup, wound to give a vintage single-string sound.

Electronics: Typical 5-way switch. Bridge volume (also push-pull split for bridge pickup), Neck volume (also push-pull split for neck pickup), Middle volume, and master tone.

Sound: If I could pick one word to describe how this guitar sounds, it would be "creamy".

This is a great guitar, but 7-strings aren't my main thing and I just picked up an RG1077XL, which I prefer due to the longer scale (27" versus 25.5"). So this has to go. I'm looking for $1500 shipped (money order or PayPal accepted) in the original Ibanez hardshell case. I'm not interested in trades right now unless you have a Hamer Studio with a Floyd or Baker with a trem (which would of course require me to kick in money). Price is negotiable.

Here are a couple pics. You can see more at http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v1...uinn1975/LACS/
Feel free to contact me at atquinn1975 AT yahoo DOT com for more pictures or if you have any questions. I'm on eBay as "Quinley" and I have all positive feedback (all on guitars or guitar-related stuff), so don't be afraid to make a deal. Thanks. -Austin

Damn...if this is still here in a few months...

It is a nice guitar but i'm not sure about a Korina neck and the trem/bridge would have to go.
That's a strange set-up for an Ibanez LACS.

Wasn't this for sale somewhere before?

The Korina neck might seem a bit strange, but Schecter makes all-Mahogany 7's, so it's not unprecedented. I never had any issues with stability.

Also, Dave's wife was selling this a while back on eBay. I contacted her and bought it privately.

I was slobbering over this one when it was on eBay, but I didn't have the $$$ then and don't now, unfortunately. Otherwise, I'd snag it from you. I think that bridge design is brilliant, by the way, although it would take some getting used to, I'd think. You could do some really wacky pedal steel-like effects, I'll bet.

The bridge design is pretty cool and didn't really take much getting used to at all for me. However, I used it solely for dropping the B down to B-flat or A (I guess I'm not too creative

).
