So, I have been rolling this around in my head for a couple of years. I just "Donated" a Ibanez RG series to a friend who has a band and needed a backup. So, I think now is the time to go ahead and splurge and have one built for me. I have the guy to do all the assembly work. but, I want to ask a few questions to settle my mind at ease before I go for it.
1 - For the body, what is the brightest sounding wood and has good sustain qualities?
2 - Would you suggest a Hollow Body?
2 - If you get a laminant, does that effect the tonal quality? Would spalted maple effect it negitively?
3 - What is a good dealer for guitar bodies besides Warmoth? Are there any other choices?
The goal is to build a Jackson Style guitar with a spalted mable laminent. It will have a black bind around the body and neck (hard maple, reverse jackson spalted laminant headstock)
