CUSTOM IBANEZ UNIVERSE PROJECT PAW HERC FEDE,ET GUITARS

It all started in january 2012 when i contacted herc fede and et guitars asking them to build my dream guitar.i wanted to use top notch parts and best resources available to make an exceptional  guitar  that will last for ever.

materials:

body: pacific mahogany finished by herc fede(one of the last swirls he will be making in 2012).high gloss.

neck: same specs as per the ibanez universe 7 strings one  with pyramids but i asked to have a carbon fiber stripe inserted inside the neck to make it even stronger.ebony fretboard,low action and last frets scalloped,i wanted an AANJ neck to have better acces to to the neck while playing.

hardware: floyd rose tremolo  cosmo black as per the ibanez universe,cosmo black parts and custom truss rod made with vai logo. red noiseless springs and titanium block for the bridge.

pickups:   neck pickup: sustainiac 7  eq to make   humbucker sound.
middle: blaze 7
bridge: evolution 7
dimarzio green strap

the electronics will have a sprague capacitor and silver mica for the volume.RS GUITARWORKS SUPERPOT FOR VOLUME,Bourns 82 for the tone.
i am including the first pictures i received from herc with the body just swirled.it will be clearcoated  to  high gloss finish within the next weeks and i will be posting pictures with the evolution of my project.
