New neck

ill cut right to point
i have an old ibanez rx 20L(not made any more)
it has a great sound
but the neck fell is kind of week
i was thinking woulnt it be swank if a got super a fast neck on it
so im wondering A-it is possible?(its a bolt on neck)
B-if so what neck should i get
C-how much would it cost

also remember how im lefthanded so i guess id need a left handed neck...i think

you could order a replacement neck directly from ibanez. you could put some money into it and upgrade it to a nicer model as well. there's no such thing as a left handed or right handed neck, all that really matters is the way the headstock is oriented, so if u don't mind it being upside down it should be fine (assuming ur bolt joint isn't the smaller rounded kind, then you'd need to get a neck that would fit into that joint)

seemin that u've got an ibanez , i'd say ure best bet would to obviously go with another neck by them. So if i were u i'd get a wizard neck, but it might be a little pricey

yeah most definitely over 100 bucks. A fender replacement neck is over 300.

Just contact Ibanez, you can even check out their replacement stuff on their website.

www.warmoth.com it will be a little over $100 and you can get it cut to be a wizard or whatever. Just make sure your neck joint is the right size.

My friend got a warmoth neck and I hate the way it plays. I wouldn't recommend that (but for some reason they get great reviews). Yeah you can get some necks on ebay, if you trust getting them that way. Does anyone know if Ibanez and Fender necks are compatible?

not true. take a close look at a wizard and notice how the bottom is thinner than the top

Yeah you're right, i totally wasn't thinking straight. Plus the Peavey Wolfgang necks are asymmetrical too.

warmoth's stuff is way nice, your friend probably just has his shit poorly set up.
