Is this kit compatible with other necks? say I bought an actual Ibanez neck separately, would it fit, or would it require extensive modification?

I haven't assembled this kit yet, but it is a bolt on neck and not a set neck. I can tell you that the neck that came in the kit is a decent neck though

Depends on the hole placement and fret number, it is a 24 fret neck on the Alston, and the holes aren't in a square formation

Don't play a ukelele so I'm not sure how wide the neck is. The fork on this 2" wide. Hope this helps

It will fit on a strat body. As a matter of fact, any guitar which has the generic shape of a strat such as Ibanez RG, ESP MII, Jackson Dinky/Soloist etc. will fit into this case without a problem.

They should work with any 3per side configuration. The only caution: the hole for the screw in the back that holds it stable might not match so you'll have a tiny hole in the back of the headstock that shows. The worst thing that could happen is that the hole for the machine head doesn't match and will have to be drilled out. Any music store witha guitar tech on staff can do it for a couple of bucks. I'd get them. got a set for my Ibanez and I have to tune it like once a week.

It does require drilling a screw that's usually slightly larger than the screw holding the strap knob currently. As always (put barsoap in the tip/threads of the new "straplock" screw) and use the recommended size drill bit when "re-coring" for the new larger screw (have a electric drill and various small wood drill bits). If you have ANY doubt, then I'd say take it to a well trusted and referred guitar technician/luthier. Their experience is almost ALWAYS worth the money!!

Hi from, Mike. The one that I bought was a round neck ?? Just like a standard guitar - Great guitar for the price - But did need to be set up to play right -

I would definitely call Grover or Gibson and get an exact part number. Bought them for my acoustic without doing my research and now my tuners are at a slight angle to the headstock because of different screw placements. It actually looks kind of neat imo, but not what I was originally expecting

I wouldn't recommend it unless you know whether or not screwing the body will affect the sound in any way... My solution to this was to take a shoe string (matching the body so it's not as noticeable) and to tie it on the base of the headstock and through one end of the strap. It works perfectly well and doesn't involve mutilating your guitar, unless of course you know what you're doing, then disregard my message :)

Nice guiitar but I don't know. I installed it on a Gibson 339 and it took longer to string the Bigsby than to install it. It's a fantastic mod and uses the original stop tail mounting sleeves. That being said I have a PRS Artist custom 24 and agree with Chuckiebumps that the carved top is definitely a consideration. Plus the position of the switch may be troublesome with the bigsby arm even if the Vibramate installs properly. I know they have some carved top guitar images on their site so I'd email Brian at Vibramate. He was very helpful and very responsive to my question. info@vibramate.com Nice guiitar but I don't know.

You need to screw in their custom button. As a fellow Taylor owner, I can tell you that these (and other strap locks) won't work. They're for electric guitars that have screws to hold on their strap buttons

I have that exact guitar. I had to do some serious modification to get my guitar to fit. It involved pulling back the fabric lining and chipping away at the wood underneath. I would have to recommend a different case since the pressure on the neck of a guitar due to a case that is too small, may effect the integrity of the instrument. I have had tuning issues with mine, but I'm not sure of the cause of this.

Not sure of your dimensions. The interior does have some contours, and it does fit our Ibanez RC 320 perfectly.

These are the kind where the bushing screws into the tuner instead of just the bushing fitting snugly around it. If your current guitar has just the tuning peg and a basic bushing that goes around it, it will probably not fit. If the bushing screws into it (there would be a large base for the bushing to screw into), I can't imagine why they wouldn't fit. They do come with screws, thankfully! 1 screw per peg, however they fit so snugly into my guitar that I didn't even need them.

I'm sorry but I can't answer your question as I only have the one guitar. Even though I was pretty certain it would fit my S570DXQM I still contacted Ibanez before I bought the guitar. I would suggest you contact Ibanez, I found they answered my question quickly and I always think it's better to ask them as they should know best.

I can't speak to that exact guitar. I have a Strat type and it fits fine. Unlike some hardshells it's more of a generic space.

You just need the standard type, ties around the neck and has the eyelet at the back. I glued a nob on the upper part of the neck because of the current strap I have for my other guitars. One strap to fit all. Its a really good guitar for any level of player. Enjoy.

I have not, but it is symmetric, so I think you can do it. Will have less access to the higjer frets, but no different to a classic guitar
