what make/model has these specs?

[Jack_TriPpEr]

Can't bring myself to pay over $1,100 for these same specs in a custom Agile, so trying to identify other makes/models that have all these specs, for $700 or less. Strat or LP body style is fine. USED is quite ok, in fact, preferred.

-mahogany body
-double cut
-body contour ("tummy cut")
-24 3/4" scale
-24 frets
-2 humbucker config
-slim neck (no baseball bats)
-floyd or kahler
-medium or jumbo frets

-** no PRS (their fretboard width is too wide for me)


Thanks

SG Standard 24, and install a Kahler? Not sure if they are that low on the used market, though.

Washburn Nunos? I remember them being stubby.

Sounds like you need a charvel/jackson fusion..Sounds ideal for your requirements

try a 1994 Jackson Fusion HH they have a mahogany body, Fr, 24 jumbo frets. 24 3/4" scale, slim neck etc

Won't be mahogany but what about a Musicman Silhouette ?

(Used) Carvin?

Carvin or Charvel/Jackson has some series in 24.75. You can also check out Caparison Horus. Btw is anyone selling a 750XL?

I keep thinking of a LP Standard Double-Cut. But it doesn't have a trem and is above your specified budget.

As Rand-o said, a used Carvin. A new one could be ordered with every exact spec you are looking for, but most likely will be over your budget

Re: what make/model has these specs?

Carvin for sure. Might not hurt to look up old Hamers, as I think my Scarab 2 is all of those things you're looking for. You can probably find something at Ed Roman as well.

I think Gibson makes a floyded SG now. Among many ESP Eclipse versions, there are floyd equipped ones, too.

I am brand new to this forum and hope this is the correct place for this comment.

I just purchased a used Godin LG (I think it's a 1997 from the S/N) closely matching the spec's you mentioned for under $360.00US at The Guitar Center. The kicker is that it has two P-Rails, 1 volume, 1 push/pull tone knob and a 5 way selector switch. my understanding is the LG with 24 frets came with either P90's or HB's. This LG was routed for HB's but fitted w/P-Rails with no holes for mounting rings. I can't find any info on the model. Godin has not responded to my emails. Does any one have any info?
It is all mahogany with a rosewood 24 fret fingerboard. It plays great and can be set for P90, SC or HB in phase or out of phase and most other combinations in between. It looks to be OEM. Does anyone know if Godin ever sold this model as I described it?
Thanks for your time.

Godin! Man, totally slipped my mind on them. I love those guitars.
I've never tried to contact them on my Radiator, but I do know that the LG is the "base" model of Godins, so to speak. The Icons go for a lot more, deservedly. I thought that LGs came with either P90s or Humbuckers and the Icon Convertible came with P-rails. P-rails are pretty drop-in for humbuckers, however.

The XTs can come with FRs, 24.75 necks and MIDI as well.

Kramer Night Swan ... I don't know whether you dig hb in the middle though.
