Re: Your Signature Guitar?

Ibanez.

It'd definitely be based off the old Ibanez Maxxas. Those things were sweet
Q3: What specs do you insist upon that make it uniquely yours?
Well, to quote GD's Bob Weir, "Let's go for the full Cowboy Fancy!"
It would be a chambered Honduras mahogany body, like the originals. Set-neck Maple/Bubinga/Maple neck, with a 24 fret Ebony fretboard. Compound radius (10"-16"), asymetrical profile, and 25in scale length, satin finish on the neck as well. Hardware wise, it'd have a pair of custom wound SD humbuckers (I'll go into detail on Q4), 3-way lever, Neck Volume, Bridge Volume, and Master Varitone fiter. Edge Zero II tremolo that can be locked down into a hard tail (Not sure if they already have this feature or not lol).
Q4: What other customizations do you make to the guitar?
Okay, now here's the fun part ;-D
Galaxy Black/Metallic black top finish (like REALLY metallic. I want it to look like Outer Space, with all the metallic sparkles being like stars and planetoids and stuff.) Cosmic Black hardware. silver sparkle binding on body, natural back finish. I'd have an Abalone & MOP Yin Yang inlay on the 12th fret (dips into 11th and 13th) with red Tortoise shell flames going upwards to the 5th fret, and downwards to the 21st/22nd. Glow-in-the-dark green side dot inlays on the neck, with a silver sparkle binding on the neck and headstock to match the body. Also I'd have the Ibanez logo on the headstock in MOP outlined with Abalone. To top it off, I'd put some abalone vine-like inlays across the area beneath the bridge. The custom wound SD 'buckers I previously mentioned, would be dubbed "The Beastbuckers" and be built as a neck and bridge set (though rather tonally different.) The neck BB would be similar to an EMG 60 or Dimarzio Chopper tonewise: Clear high-end with single coil bite, Fat punchy lows, and a super crunchy midrange. When I say crunchy, I mean bones being smashed underfoot crunchy, like a kind of dry "CRRUNCCCH". It'd probably have a ceramic magnet to accommodate the crunch. broad dynamics, and crystal slightly-glassy cleans to boot to. The bridge BB would be raw and raunchy with a nice roar...actually kind of similar to a Super V, but with more harmonics (oozing harmonics) and a little sweeter high end, and the pick attack compresses when you pick it hard. Some type of an Alnico magnet in it (maybe an A2 like the Super V). Pickups would have one coil with allenbolt/"large" Allen screw polepieces (like the ones on The Magnetar), and the other coil would be traditional flat head screws. Both coils would have nickel/chrome colored polepieces.
To top the p'ups off, they'd both have a pair of burned-chrome esque pickup covers like some Bareknuckles
Q5: What special piece of "case candy" goes with it as a collector's item?
Not quite sure what "case candy" entails X-D but I guess it'd come with some nice DR neon green strings (.10-.52) and it'd come in a nice black hard case with whatever my world famous band's logo is, and a green & black tiger stripe plush interior.
I guess that covers everything. Lol as you can see, I've put a lot of thought into this X-D

Re: Your Signature Guitar?
Q1: Which company called you?
A1: Ibanez. (No surprise there.)
Q2: Which standard model in their product lineup do you base your sig off of? (Need not be in current production.)
A2: I was torn between the Roadstar, the SGZ, the ART, and even the Darkstone, but I think the most comfortable/awesome/outrageous guitar (and amazingly all three are in one instrument!) is the post-lawsuit Destroyer.
Q3: What specs do you insist upon that make it uniquely yours?
A3: Neck through mahogany body construction, fixed (vintage-spec Gibraltar) tailpiece, no locking anything anywhere
Available in Vegetable Green or Andaru Eggplant, and featuring the Vine of Life inlay on all models.
Q4: What other customizations do you make to the guitar?
A4: Dual humbuckers, wound to spec after careful consultation with MJ.
No coil taps or anything fancy, just 1 volume, 1 tone, and a 3-way selector switch.
Q5: What special piece of "case candy" goes with it as a collector's item?
Clip-on headstock tuner, polishing cloth, a set of three specially designed picks, and a 1978 AMC Pacer coupe painted to match the guitar.
And what the heck, I'll even throw in a gen-u-ine certificate of authenticity. Why not?

Re: Your Signature Guitar?
Mine would be pretty much a standard USA made G&L Legacy in vintage white, with an LSR roller nut instead of a bone nut, and Schaller locking tuners. I'd ask if it'd be possible to get one with a rosewood board and one with a maple board, and if they could get the neck shape as close as possible to that of a 57 Strat. I might change out the bridge pickup to something a bit beefier at some point later on, but that'd be a big "if".
As for "case candy"...I'm not quite sure what that means. I don't need an amp built into it or anything like that. Maybe I'd ask for a baby blue lining, and a mudflap girl made out of chrome on the exterior.

Re: Your Signature Guitar?
Great thread.
Being a massive gear nerd, I've thought about this one for a while. I'd have my own signature Gibson signature guitar based off of an ES-335.
For my personal touch, I'd have Gibson Firebird style minis as the pickups (neck and bridge) in nickel and the finish would be TV White (like the historic LP Jrs/Specials). There'd be just 1V, 1T and a 3 way and instead of a tune-o-matic/stoptail configuration, I'd have a 1 piece intonatable wraparound bridge. Instead of having the guitar jack on the top of the guitar, I'd have it on the side like Les Pauls. Woods would be standard for ES-335s (typical maple/plywood and the neck would be mahogany/rosewood with dots). Neck carve would be 60's just because I've gotten used to how comfortable those are.
Personal touches? Certificate of Authenticity and a one-off EP.
Here's the color I'd be basing my ES-335 off of :

Re: Your Signature Guitar?
So you've made it to the top of the heap, and now your favorite guitar maker calls you up and begs you to authorize a signature guitar.
Q1: Which company called you? Jackson
Q2: Which standard model in their product lineup do you base your sig off of? Soloist, USA
Q3: What specs do you insist upon that make it uniquely yours? It's an archtop with a recessed Floyd that can be quickly blocked via some unspecified on-board mechanism. You can get it with a hardtail, too. Quartersawn mahogany neck-through with mahogany body, ebony fretboard. A little pig on the headstock.
Q4: What other customizations do you make to the guitar? It's HH with a five-way knife switch.
Q5: What special piece of "case candy" goes with it as a collector's item? Dunlop two-way straplocks, a nice strap made of hand-tooled leather with some minimal yet tasteful design, and a pig finger puppet who's rocking out with a tiny little Soloist of his own.

Q1: Which company called you? Jackson
Q2: Which standard model in their product lineup do you base your sig off of? King V
Q3: What specs do you insist upon that make it uniquely yours? mahogany body with light blue paint and this painted on the upper horn with the point point toward the bridge/pickups and a rainbow binding that shows from the front of the guitar. It'd also be a seven sting with a pegasus pickup in the bridge Sentient in the neck.
Q4: What other customizations do you make to the guitar? 2 knobs and a 3 way switch in a line down the lower horn with the output jack on the front of the lower horn. Evertune Bridge and Floyd Rose variant

Re: Your Signature Guitar?
1. ESP/LTD
2. Eclipse II VB
3: Have a reverse headstock so the points are pointing up, not down. Also the 12th fret inlay would be my own tattoo design.
4: SD Phat Cat. "Single coil in a metal guitar? Oh hell no!" I don't really like neck humbuckers, I like that top end there. Second that totally moist pinstriping similar to what Billy Gibbons has on his LPJ. And probably Sperzels just for convenience.
5: Picks and a small potater.

Re: Your Signature Guitar?
Q1: Jackson
Q2: King V
Q3: 7-string, 26" scale, BEADGCF tuning, True Temperament frets, bridge pickup only, 1 volume, series/parallel minitoggle, hardtail and headless design (either Hipshot or Strandberg). I want a fairly light and very balanced V. Something new for Jackson I guess.
Q4: grain-matched light ash body (means natural finish), carbon fiber neck reinforcement, Seymour Duncan pickup (possibly CS), Dunlop Strap-lok, no inlays except side dots fret markers (preferably the Luminlay ones), ebony pickup ring, and body-matched ash electronic cover.
Q5: A bottle opener, a year-worth of VIP backstage pass, Jack Daniels supplies, condoms, viagras, strip-club pass, also health insurance and free gym membership for a year just in case you fvcked up your body. A signed CoA and limited edition CD are included.
But you have to pay GBP 6666 for it. All in all it's a great deal, right?
