burno70 Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) Played a couple of gorgeous Ibanez SR's in Dawsons yesterday - I particularly love their necks; thinnest - and fastest I've ever played. Just wondering, has anyone requested the SR neck dimensions on their Maruszczyk mod? How did it turn out? Edited June 25, 2017 by burno70 Quote

Just wondering, has anyone requested the SR neck dimensions on their Maruszczyk mod? How did it turn out? [/quote] Yes, the neck on my elwood is based on measurements of the neck on my SR1605. Its very nice - that was one of the reason (as it shows somewhere on this massive thread) that I went for one, that I could have the neck dimensions that I wanted. Quote

How accurate a reproduction is it? Does it have the same feel? Quote

Plays very similar though and I am very happy with it. Quote
Fisheth Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) Not really relevant, but I've had Adrian copy the neck on my Harris with my 32" Speesys, my first one plays so similar to it I might get rid of the Harris! Adrian's guys have attention to detail, they do really good work. Edited June 25, 2017 by Fisheth Quote
burno70 Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Hey thanks for the quick responses. I was always planning on a maruszcyk custom job but after playing those Ibby's yesterday I'm not so sure. Quote
wateroftyne Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Hmm.. seriously considering sticking an order in for #3. Quote

Don't tempt me but I'm contemplating a Fretless Speesy with F holes in the future! Just paid for it, here's hoping it gets sent out tomorrow! Quote
