NND: Maple

Post by Awstin »

New neck day. Just scored this maple Stang neck off eBay. It is scalloped I guess but the finish is still there, the frets look ok, it has the original tuners, and I scored it for $77.00 so not a big gamble. Looks alright to me. What guitar of mine should I put it on? I'm thinking maybe the sunburst Stang or my white mustang. Could put it on the offset build or the burgundy mist multilated mustang body. What do you guys think?

It can't go on too clean of a guitar, that's for sure. So what ever is kind of beat up or worldly looking would be best I think.

I agree. I think it would look at home on your sunburst body.

Buttrockers. I thought $77.00 was a pretty good price though.

Sweet Jesus, fuck. I didn't like the surf green jag before, but that maple neck changed my mind entirely.

Holy shit.
