WTB SPECIFIC TYPE OF GUITAR

[Nick_cor]

Hi guys, im looking for a guitar and im going to be extremely picky because im going to buy it and it'll be my MAIN guitar for a LONG time so I might as well get it the way I want, so if you guys know of any guitars that are to my demanding needs then please do tell!

what I need in the guitar

- 24 fret neck *
- fast neck ( musicman fast ) *
- 3 way toggle switch
- 2x humbuckers *
- NO floyd rose *
- floating tremelo ( like musicmans )
- double cut away body *
- 1x( volume + tone knobs )

what I want in the guitar

- piezo
- contour on the body for picking ( like musicman petrucci guitar )
- to look fricken awesome
- volume and tone knobs not so **** close to the string ( like strats )

Now I've found TWO guitars that are pretty much up to what I want, they are the 20th anniversary musicman and the john petrucci musicman, I personally would like to stay away from the petrucci guitar because it's a signature and I would like to play something of my own, and the 20th anniversary right now seems like THE guitar. IF anyone knows of any guitars that are pretty close to what I want then please tell me!
PS: the * means it's the most important

thanks

You should also be looking into the Parker Fly Classic or Deluxe which has all of the things you want but is a neck through guitar.

They are about $800-$1400 used.

Check out DTM guitars (McNaught). He can build the exact guitar you want. He makes awesome guitars.

But they're the most expensive guitars.. 3K .. that's more then the petrucci that has everything that I want.
