Do you guys think swapping the neck would be easy? Or could that lead to adjustment problems?

Well, theoretically, if you get an RG1527RB and RG1527GW, and swap necks, they will be a direct swap with no problems, since they're the same model, only with different wood materials used as their fretboards. And they should have the same routing for the neck pocket joints, the neck screws etc.

But, getting a custom neck in the other hand, is a whole different story. I, for one, once got a custom neck to fit an RG (6 string, mind you), and all I got was nightmares

Yeah bro I remember your other thread. Turns out a six string fu block with 3 holes fits the lo pro 7 perfectly...sorry to get off topic.
but as far as the 1527 goes, adam only sells 1 ibanez 7 string block, no different sizes available. That being said, the block/springs/claw combo have turned this thing into a tone monster. It still even has the stock pups, and im getting better sound than my s7420's put out with aftermarket pups.

Very nice!!! I was debating not doing a brass block on the 1527 because the bridge actually looks pretty quality ,with the spring locks and all, but if I don't have to go through all that again, then I trust your word my friend. I'm gonna go for another FU block then!!!! I've gotta pair of pink BK aftermaths with black bolts on the way, Im thinking it will contrast the Purple/Cosmic Blue body very well. Thanx! for the input!!

She's an amazing artist and is taking her time on it to make sure it looks amazing instead of looking like it was rushed. I hope to have pics of it up soon.

Ibanez 7321 (2005 Korea) with Crunch Lab + LiquiFire set

I love it

rfseet · 03-15-2011, 01:54 PM

Sup SS.org, Pleased to meet you all.

Can I join the club?

I bought an rg1527 off the 'bay a few weeks ago and have been loving it so far. Especially after I got it set up. But like a lot of people on here, the stock pick-ups have been a bit iffy IMO. Thinking of putting some BKP's in it.

Cheers, the one and only Gypsy lol

Welcome to SS.org, dude!

Yes, you can join the club! But you need to post pictures of your 1527.

maliciousteve · 03-16-2011, 07:27 AM

Yeah pretty much. The RG7620 when it was first released was the top 7 string model you could get without buying the Universe.

The trems are great, the neck feels very very similar to a Universe neck and overall sound great. Where as the cheaper 7420 came with a different trem and pickups and were considered good but not as good as the 7620.

some RG76's pop up on craigslist (and sometimes, its partly our fault as to why they're on there for more than 5 minutes), few others on eBay from time to time

im soon set on getting mine within the week or next

EBAY DUDE!!

ive been browsing ebay everyday for the last few months searching for a really nice new RG7.... and i dont think there EVER was a day outta those couple of months where i ddnt find at least one RG7620 on there....

they usually go for something like this:

mint: 500-600$
near mint: 400-500$
fair: 300-400$
beat: 150-300$

so really, how much you wanna pay and the condition you prefer matter...

i was looking for a mint to near mint guitar, which took a little while to find a nice deal... but if you dont mind a beatup guitar (you could always strip the body of paint and oil finish it if it has a ton of paint chips) you can find one very quickly and for a very nice price

guess that means the RG7620 im gonna be picking up falls in between the mint - near mint conditions (even though the only mod to it is a set of EMG 707s)
