A 32 fret neck? What the heck would you do with that? Just get a 7 or 8 string.
There are plenty of custom guitar builders, but for a completely original "way out, one off" you're going to pay major bucks. -------------------- "I dreamed a lot when I was younger..

QUOTE (Gwazi @ Nov 28 2008, 01:51 AM)  the 32 fret neck is supposed to, in most cases just look good... but i prefer having the extra frets because i know that i'm going to end up using them for the higher E string frets, so getting a 7 or 8 string won't give me what i'm looking for I will not look good, it will look silly and I can proove it.  I think you shoul ask yourself one question about having 32 frets and that's -Why?I'm just saying this because in the end I think you will be disappointed. In theory you can add as many frets you like between the nut and the bridge. But the more you add the less room there will be to fit pickups and for the higher frets it's questionable if you can even fret them, after all you have to fit a finger there in order to do so. Caparison fit 27 frets onto a guitar and it still looks ok, surely the higher frets will be difficult to reach and the neck pickup is in the position of where the mid pickup would normally be at. Don't expect a Flying V - that you say you're aiming for - will look like a flying V, it will be very different in order to fit 32 frets. You have to compromise for eather having the neck run through the body (=unreachable frets) or have it "singlecut" so you could reach the bottom frets. It'd be playable but no beauty. Here's a warning picture of how your guitar could turn out  So think and plan closely before you order something you might not know how it will turn out in the end  -------------------- My bands homepage

Hey, man.
Probably to get H-S-H configuration on proper positions you won't be able to go more than 24 frets. But heck, this is more then enough to make a guitar scream!
