    Just picked up an(other) Ibanez SR... SR400B-CW... 2015 Reg, and my googling and perusing of the Ibanez US and EU Brochures, have drawn me to the conclusion that this was a US model... So not Rare as such, more Less Familiar... Claro Walnut (CW) top on Mahogany body, SR4 Neck Maple and Rosewood, Rosewood Board. Needs a good clean and hopefully i can restore some luster to the top and headstock.

    Fighting... I'm still waiting on the pics. @koby 74 - welcome to the forum SR or BTB? I loves an SR... For me they are the ultimate body shape, necka and tidiest headstock... available at a multitude of price points and some of the wood finishes... wow. Get some pics up... Here, on the 'Black Bass' thread and The 'Ibanez Porn' Thread

    They gonna swap or refund? Souldn't be £37 short for 3mm long! At least that explains things...

    I'd check the measurements, string, box, website... Possible an over-long rogue set? Is there a difference in length to the old set, or just how they are (or not) tuning up? - Gauge Change?

    ...nah... i think i'll leave it... i was in two minds about replying as it was...

    I'd go wood... softer than the body and neck... more of a compression deform 'Gasket' rather than a harder wood or plastic that would be more 'Spacer'... Also don't like or see the need for the plastic shield on a neck plate.

    The neck on mine (Aria Pro II) was defo more Jazz... 38mm at the nut. And with 60mm at the bridge, quite a taper...

    Nut can usually accommodate a little change, as brands may also differ in thickness... So if you have gone from a std 45-65-85-105 Rounds to say a 45-65-80-100 Flats... Check for a twisted string, do you wind a wind round the peg by hand, this can introduce a twist... slacken off a string, pull down to the bridge and see if you can un-turn half a turn at the ball end... Witness points, tune- up and a light press - lighter with flats - at the bridge and nut contact points. Saddles, got any silk over the saddle? If the above don't fix it, trip back with a razor blade, although this may expose a rough join...

    Sweet Short Scale Project for the winter nights... cheeky £50 offer? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/151463874705573

    I think the BBOT bridge on my Aria Jazz Modder is 20... certainly feels wider than the norm.. i'll check and get some dim's as dunno if the back 5 screws are F spaced, although it has 2 up front... Little grooves for the saddles... I can do a bridge swap or cheap £ to just replace... postage?
