Just submited a quote request to Christopher Woods.

bazguitarman · 04-10-2007, 08:58 PM

Well, I picked up on Mr. Woods from you guys and after checking his website I submited a request on a custom guitar. I`m actually very anxious to hear from him.

I speced out a neck-through Ibanez RG 7-string. Pretty simple actually.

Body: Mahogany
Neck: Mahogany
Fretboard: Ebony, no inlays, 24 stainless frets
Headstock overlay: Ebony
Body top veneer: 3/16" ebony

I asked for standard RG specs like edge radius, tummy cut, forearm cut. Also standard electronics setup with single volume, single tone, three-way blade type switch and direct mount EMG actives. Also set up with a standard Ibanez type fixed bridge. Oil finish on the entire guitar.

It should be a monster and a looker with the ebony top treatment.

Damn, I knew there was something I forgot. I didn`t specify a reverse headstock. I wanted to get one to match the reverse headstock that my new ESP M-1 will have. I love reverse headstocks and the Ibanez shape looks really nice reversed. Well, I`ll let Chris know after I get the initial quote.

I`m hoping that even with his wait time, that I may get the guitar by Christmas. That would be a sweet ass present for myself.

I think that I will go ahead and have him put me on his waiting list. That will give me some time to decide on some final small specs. I havn`t decided if I want to go with a 707 or an 81-7 in the bridge position. Hmmm....

This is just my thought, but it may be a bit cheaper to get the hardware and install it yourself, since I think he has an upcharge on top of the hardware costs.

I will probably buy all the hardware and electronics myself. Then just send it all to Chris when I send the down payment to start the guitar. I believe he does have a 10% upcharge when you buy the hardware from him. I do want him to completely assemble and set it up though.

No, he`s not set up to cover my specs with the speed guitar option. I`ve got to go the regular custom route, be put on the waiting list and then just wait.

I think youll have a hard time getting an ebony top to bend over a forearm contour. Going for the Blackmachine look?

I thought Chris wasn't going to do any more custom jobs atm? I emailed him and he said that he was full-up and wouldn't accept new orders for a while.
